airprint

I've been playing with iOS 4.2 UIWebView + AirPrint. The problem, however, is that getting the viewPrintFormatter from the UIWebView I'm able to print PDF and images, but not DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX, etc. Those files are displayed properly in the UIWebView, but Airprint will print blank pages. Here is my code: [internalWebView loadData:[[printContent objectAtIndex:0] data] MIMEType:mimeType textEncodingName:nil baseURL:nil]; UIPrintInteractionController *pic = [UIPrintInteractionController sharedPrintController]; //pic.delegate = self; UIPrintInfo *printInfo = [UIPrintInfo printInfo]; printInfo

In my iOS app, I have the following code that is being used for AirPrinting a simple NSString. #pragma mark - Print -(IBAction)print:(id)sender { UIPrintInteractionController *pic = [UIPrintInteractionController sharedPrintController]; pic.delegate = self; UIPrintInfo *printInfo = [UIPrintInfo printInfo]; printInfo.outputType = UIPrintInfoOutputGeneral; printInfo.jobName = @"Message"; pic.printInfo = printInfo; UISimpleTextPrintFormatter *textFormatter = [[UISimpleTextPrintFormatter alloc]initWithText:self.Message.text]; textFormatter.startPage = 0; textFormatter.contentInsets =

I tried the following: NSString *html = /* generate my HTML here */ NSMutableData *pdfData = [NSMutableData data]; UIMarkupTextPrintFormatter *fmt = [[UIMarkupTextPrintFormatter alloc] initWithMarkupText:html]; // Render the html into a PDF UIGraphicsBeginPDFContextToData( pdfData, CGRectZero, nil ); for

I am researching a potential app for a client, and I had a question I wasn't able to find the answer on. What I would like to do is print automatically, without having the UIPrintInteractionController get displayed. An important point I should make is this will not be a production app. I know that otherwise this could violate the user's privacy to just print without the user's consent, but again this will not be a public app on the App Store. One app I found that seems to be able to this is Printer Pro . The user is prompted to print a test page, and the page prints without the
