HTML to PDF conversion on iOS? [closed]

Answer 1

The entire point of this question was text as text and not screenshot

The following answer shows how to make a bitmap screenshot, in a pdf container...

#import 

- (NSString *)pdfPath {
  NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
  NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
  NSString *writableDBPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"tmp.pdf"];
  return writableDBPath;
}

- (NSDictionary *)pdfContextDictionary {
  NSDictionary *d = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"J. P. Author", kCGPDFContextAuthor,
                     @"My Cool App", kCGPDFContextCreator,
                     @"This is the Output", kCGPDFContextTitle,
                     nil];
  return d;
}

- (void)printToPDF {
  NSString *path = [self pdfPath];
  UIView *displayView = self.view;
  CGRect pageRect = displayView.bounds;
  if (UIGraphicsBeginPDFContextToFile(path, pageRect, [self pdfContextDictionary]) == NO) {
    return; // error
  }
  UIGraphicsBeginPDFPage();
  CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
  CALayer *layer = displayView.layer;
  [layer renderInContext:context];
  UIGraphicsEndPDFContext();  
  NSLog(@"[%@ %@] %@", NSStringFromClass([self class]), NSStringFromSelector(_cmd), path);
}
