iphone - Send PDF to iBooks

Question

Now iBooks supports PDF. My app has access to many PDF files. Is it possible to send PDFs to iBooks (or other PDF readers like GoodReader and iAnnotate PDF) from my app?

Answer 1

//get path to file you want to open 

NSString *fileToOpen = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"readme" ofType:@"pdf"];

//create NSURL to that path

NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:fileToOpen];

//use the UIDocInteractionController API to get list of devices that support the file type

docController = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:url];

[docController retain];

//present a drop down list of the apps that support the file type, click an item in the list will open that app while passing in the file.

 BOOL isValid = [docController presentOpenInMenuFromRect:CGRectZero inView:self.view animated:YES];
