Get a PDF/PNG as output from a UIWebView or UIView

Question

Is there any way to get the content of a UIWebView and convert it to a PDF or PNG file? I\'d like to get similar output to that available on the Mac by selectin

@mjdth, try fileURLWithPath:isDirectory: instead. URLWithString wasn't working for me either.

@implementation UIView(PDFWritingAdditions)

- (void)renderInPDFFile:(NSString*)path
{
    CGRect mediaBox = self.bounds;
    CGContextRef ctx = CGPDFContextCreateWithURL((CFURLRef)[NSURL fileURLWithPath:path isDirectory:NO], &mediaBox, NULL);

    CGPDFContextBeginPage(ctx, NULL);
    CGContextScaleCTM(ctx, 1, -1);
    CGContextTranslateCTM(ctx, 0, -mediaBox.size.height);
    [self.layer renderInContext:ctx];
    CGPDFContextEndPage(ctx);
    CFRelease(ctx);
}
