iPhone UIWebView PDF Page Jump

Question

I want to view a local PDF (in my iPhone app) and be able to jump to a specific page. Seems like the UIWebView is the way to go, however, I can\'t find any information on j

Answer 1

You can try using Javascript. See this link for more details. You'll want to use something along the lines of @"window.scrollTo(0, x);", where x is some value you determined by playing around with the WebView.

Answer 2

Alternatively to an UIWebView, you can use the Quartz API :http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/GraphicsImaging/Conceptual/drawingwithquartz2d/dq_pdf/dq_pdf.html

It's more complicated, but you should be able to do whatever you want.

Answer 3

Another option would be to set the content offset of the UIWebView like Mike pointed out (but without involving JavaScript):

webView.ScrollView.SetContentOffset(new PointF(0, y), true);

(sorry for the MonoTouch code but ObjectiveC is still on my todo list)
