Slashdot - HP Gives Printers Email Addresses

"HP is set to unveil a line of printers with their own email addresses, allow-
ing people to print from devices such as smartphones and tablets. The ad-
dresses will allow users to email their documents or photos directly to their
own — or someone else's — printer. It will also let people more easily share
physical documents; rather than merely emailing links around, users can
email a photo to a friend's printer. 'HP plans to offer a few of these new
printers to consumers this month, and then a few more of the products to
small businesses in September.'"

iOS Learner - Generate PDF programmatically in iPhone/iPad SDK

"Moreover, if you are targeting ARC, you have to use __bridge or any such
keyword related to Core Foundation, because ARC does not control Core-
Foundation objects. So I’d personally prefer the methods provided by UIKit,
unless there is a strong need to use the CoreGraphics approach, which till
now I didn’t find."

so - iOS SDK - Programmatically generate a PDF file

"Using the CoreGraphics framework is tedious work, in my honest opinion,
when it comes to programmatically drawing a PDF file.

I would like to programmatically create a PDF, using various objects from
views throughout my app."

so - Implementing an interactive pdf in iOS

"You should read PDF file using Quartz APIs and present it in your own
view if you want to support editing. See below links

Is it possible to combine multiple pdf files into a single pdf file programmatically in iphone?

PDF editing with iPhone sdk

http://www.iphonedevsdk.com/forum/iphone-sdk-tutorials/10989-pdf-creation-tutorial.html

The idea is if you just want text editing, read and draw your pdf file using
quartz 2D APIs, show all text objects inside pdf in editable text elements,
let user change and and on save create/replace text objects in original pdf
using Quartz 2D."

TestDevLab Blog - How To Print From iOS Applications

"But what if your printer is not on the supported AirPrint printers list, but still
has wireless printing option? Then you probably connect your iOS device to
printer's Wi-Fi and then print your content using some third party apps. For
example, for Canon printers or for Brother printers and for label printers"

apple - Printing From Your App

"When printing to a view object that your app uses only for printing you need to:

- Create a view that will be used only for printing, making sure you size it appropriately.
- Create a print operation using the print view."


Code:
NSPrintOperation *printOp = [NSPrintOperation printOperationWithView:myPrintingView
                          printInfo:[self printInfo]];
