Remarks
Introduced in iOS 10, the UIGraphicsPdfRenderer allows custom drawing code that utilitizes wide color and outputs its results in PDF format.
The common way to use UIGraphicsPdfRenderer is to call CreatePdf(Action<UIGraphicsPdfRendererContext>), which takes an Action as an argument, allowing the developer to either pass in drawing code or use a lambda expression:
var pageRect = new CGRect (0, 0, width: 8.5 * 72, height: 11 * 72);
var renderer = new UIGraphicsPdfRenderer (pageRect, new UIGraphicsPdfRendererFormat ());
var pdfData = renderer.CreatePdf (ctx => {
ctx.BeginPage ();
var text = new NSString ("Hello Wrold!");
text.DrawString (new CGPoint (0, 0), UIFont.BoldSystemFontOfSize (72));
});
The new drawing method is still based on manipulating the state of a "current context" but instead of a CGContext it is now a subclass of UIGraphicsRendererContext (either UIGraphicsImageRendererContext or UIGraphicsPdfRendererContext). If necessary, developers can retrieve the current context as a CGContext using GetContext(UIGraphicsRendererFormat).
