iPhone - Create PDF using text and image


I've some text entered by user in my app and image is captured from camera. I want to create a PDF using the text and image? I know how to create a PDF as mentioned in URL PDF Creation

But I don't know how to create a PDF using both text and image. Can some one suggest me good tutorial or some sample piece of code?


Solution

  • On the lines of the example provided at the link you mentioned, you can do something like-

    CGContextSelectFont (pdfContext, "Arial", 12, kCGEncodingMacRoman);
    CGContextSetTextDrawingMode (pdfContext, kCGTextFill);
    CGContextSetRGBFillColor (pdfContext, 0, 0, 0, 1);
    const char *text = "my text";
    CGContextShowTextAtPoint (pdfContext, 50, 375, text, strlen(text)); //Display wherever you want to
    

    You can use CGContextDrawImage in a similar fashion to display the image.

    HTH,
