pdf as an email attachment in iOS device [closed]

Answer 1

See the docs for MFMailComposeViewController. Specifically, you're looking for the addAttachmentData:mimeType:fileName: method. That should get you going.

Answer 2

Create a MFMailComposeViewController and call addAttachmentData:mimeType:fileName:. The data will be the PDF you created. The mimeType will be application/pdf. And the fileName will be the name of the file in the email attachment. The code might look like something below:

From the tutorial you'll need to render your PDF into a NSMutableData object:

NSMutableData *pdfData = [NSMutableData data];
UIGraphicsBeginPDFContextToData(pdfData, bounds, nil);

Then at some point in the future you'll need to pass that pdfData to the MFMailComposeViewController.

MFMailComposeViewController *vc = [[[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init] autorelease];
[vc setSubject:@"my pdf"];
[vc addAttachmentData:pdfData mimeType:@"application/pdf" fileName:@"SomeFile.pdf"];
