Name	Description
BeginPDFContext(NSMutableData, CGRect, NSDictionary)	Pushes a new PDF rendering context that writes to an NSMutableData object and makes it the current graphics context.
BeginPDFContext(String, CGRect, CGPDFInfo)	Pushes a new PDF rendering context that writes to a file and makes it the current graphics context.
BeginPDFContext(String, CGRect, NSDictionary)	Pushes a new PDF rendering context that writes to a file and makes it the current graphics context.

BeginPDFContext(NSMutableData, CGRect, NSDictionary)

Pushes a new PDF rendering context that writes to an NSMutableData object and makes it the current graphics context.

public static void BeginPDFContext(Foundation.NSMutableData data, CoreGraphics.CGRect bounds, Foundation.NSDictionary documentInfo);

public static void BeginPDFContext(Foundation.NSMutableData data, CoreGraphics.CGRect bounds, Foundation.NSDictionary? documentInfo);

static member BeginPDFContext : Foundation.NSMutableData * CoreGraphics.CGRect * Foundation.NSDictionary -> unit

Parameters

data: NSMutableData

The mutable data object to write PDF output to.

bounds: CGRect

The bounds of the PDF page.

documentInfo: NSDictionary

Optional dictionary containing PDF document metadata, or null.

Remarks

UIKit keeps a stack of contexts. This method creates a new PDF context, makes it the default and places it at the top of the graphic context stack.

To close the PDF context and restore the previous graphics context, call the EndPDFContext() method.

This function can only be invoked from the UI thread.

Applies to

BeginPDFContext(String, CGRect, CGPDFInfo)

static member BeginPDFContext : string * CoreGraphics.CGRect * CoreGraphics.CGPDFInfo -> unit

Parameters

file: String

The path to the PDF file to create.

bounds: CGRect

The bounds of the PDF page.

documentInfo: CGPDFInfo

Optional CGPDFInfo containing PDF document metadata, or null.
