Mac OS X is well known for its great support for PDF files. You can create a PDF file from anything you can print. I thought that using Apple’s PDFKit framework would make it easy to program a way to print an existing PDF file. That turned out not to be the case.
Sending a file to a printer using the lp command is easy. However, this approach does not work for PDF files formatted for landscape printing. You can specify landscape orientation, but I wanted a way to detect the orientation automatically.
PDFKit has a PDFView
object that has a printWithInfo:autoRotate:
method. However, adding aPDFDocument
to a PDFView
and telling it to print doesn’t work. I eventually stumbled onto the fact thatPDFDocument
has a secret method that makes printing easy. So here is the code:
#import <Quartz/Quartz.h>
- (void)printPDF:(NSURL *)fileURL {
// Create the print settings.
NSPrintInfo *printInfo = [NSPrintInfo sharedPrintInfo];
[printInfo setTopMargin:0.0];
[printInfo setBottomMargin:0.0];
[printInfo setLeftMargin:0.0];
[printInfo setRightMargin:0.0];
[printInfo setHorizontalPagination:NSFitPagination];
[printInfo setVerticalPagination:NSFitPagination];
// Create the document reference.
PDFDocument *pdfDocument = [[[PDFDocument alloc] initWithURL:fileURL] autorelease];
// Invoke private method.
// NOTE: Use NSInvocation because one argument is a BOOL type. Alternately, you could declare the method in a category and just call it.
BOOL autoRotate = YES;
NSMethodSignature *signature = [PDFDocument instanceMethodSignatureForSelector:@selector(getPrintOperationForPrintInfo:autoRotate:)];
NSInvocation *invocation = [NSInvocation invocationWithMethodSignature:signature];
[invocation setSelector:@selector(getPrintOperationForPrintInfo:autoRotate:)];
[invocation setArgument:&printInfo atIndex:2];
[invocation setArgument:&autoRotate atIndex:3];
[invocation invokeWithTarget:pdfDocument];
// Grab the returned print operation.
NSPrintOperation *op = nil;
[invocation getReturnValue:&op];
// Run the print operation without showing any dialogs.
[op setShowsPrintPanel:NO];
[op setShowsProgressPanel:NO];
[op runOperation];
}
I consider this code to be in the public domain. Please feel free to copy and paste. And let me know if you find any problems or have suggestions.
