Thanks Paulo. I understand now. I appreciate the input!

I have seen (custom) solutions offering that (working offline) and using the html5/image type solution. In online mode the files are transfered to the app and are later accessible/viewable etc. However you'll need a least a basic native app (frame) though. If you really are looking for a native IOS lib, PDFTron is the way to go: http://www.pdftron.com/pdfnet/mobile/ios_pdf_library.html However then you also need a different lib for android, blackberry, windows phone (...) and all will behave differently. Regards, ToM 2013/5/22 Mobile <mob...@dipar.co.za<mailto:mob...@dipar.co.za>> Thanks Alexis. That’s what I thought. My challenge is that everything must be do-able offline – i.e. zero internet connectivity, so using a web service etc. would cause an issue.

We create cross platform tools and need to create PDF reports on tablets/smartphones for Android, Blackberry and iOS. iText is a Java library. An official C# port (iTextSharp) exists. However, no Objective-C port has been endorsed, afaik. Unless you really need the PDF file to be created offline on the device, you could delegate the generation of the file to a web service (that you would implement in either Java or C#).
