I think this will probably do:
- (void) renderToPDFFile: (NSString*) text :(NSString*) file {
NSRect r = NSMakeRect(0, 0, 800, 800);
NSTextView* v = [[NSTextView alloc] initWithFrame:r];
[v setHidden:YES];
[v insertText:text];
[v sizeToFit]; // ah, the magic elixir!
r = [v bounds]; // now it is the right size
NSData *data = [v dataWithPDFInsideRect:r];
[data writeToFile:file atomically:YES];
[v release];
}
It seems that the sizeToFit method only effects the width of the
view, but that's probably okay in my case. My text will always be
fairly narrow, but it could be quite tall.
Guess I better do some error checking.
Also got rid of that redundant stuff that I didn't need because there
was already some stuff that could be used.

That's because you used -init to initialize pdfView. The
designated initializer for NSViews is -initWithFrame:.
