OK, guys thanks for the help so far. I've played a bit.
The subclassing of PDFDocument and PDFPage was quite straight forward.
(Although unexpected as usually everyone tells you usually you don't
subclass in Cocoa land) Just out of curiosity I've just compiled it
with the 10.4 SDK and it

I think what we usually say is: don't make subclassing your first

QuartzFilters make all that a lot simpler. You would create a

you can't go wrong by reading the Cocoa
Drawing Guide.
Surely will read through that.

Well, you need to know how to generally draw in Cocoa, and you need to
know how to take

The scaling is done when a PDFPage needs to be drawn, so you need
to implement it in your subclass's drawWithBox: method. Use an
affine transform set up to serve your needs and apply it to the
current graphics context within the drawWithBox:

I have been browsing through PDFKit examples and documentation. But it
seems most things are about showing PDFs, searching them or annotating
them.
I would like to convert a PDF of any size so it fits to A4/Letter. I
would also like to reduce it to gray scale. This all without

PDFKit gives you -[PDFPage setBounds:forBox] which would easily give
you A4/Letter size
Torsten,
These aren't really PDFKit issues.
PDF is a native Quartz data type. The issues you mentioned, scaling and
color, are addressed in the Cocoa Drawing Guide. You probably want to use an
Affine Transform for scaling. I'm not sure about how to go grayscale, but
looks like NSColorSpace
Torsten,
