I have learned Apple has release CGPDF APIs in SDK 3.2 for drawing PDF context.

What I understand from these APIs is that you can draw a PDF to a data object or a PDF file. You can then export it, may be, to your sandbox's directory OR add as an attachment in the mail.

But I am not sure if we can use these APIs to read a PDF from application bundle and show it to the user page-by-page on the screen. What I want to do is open a PDF of a magazine in a magazine reader app.

I was also wondering if we can identify the links in a PDF file and open them in the app.

Let me know if have done OR doing anything like this.

Thanks AJ
