objective c - iOS create PDF invoice -

i want create pdf invoice inside ios app (either in objective-c or swift).
main problem invoice might have several pages, difficult realize existing apis apple (coregraphics, quartz 2d, etc).

by now, have barely working solution:

1. i created html template basic structure invoice
2. the template filled data using grmustache
3. i load generated html file uiwebview , save pdf (i used ndhtmltopdf this)

so far, good.

the problem solution page breaks don't work properly. there tables , images , page break cut's off tables or images.
have tried use page-break-inside: avoid; css property images , tables uiwebview seems ignore them completely...

my question is:

1. do know how fix page break problem?
2. can recommend solution create pdfs on ios?
3. should design invoice in storyboard , generate pdf uiview? page breaks here?

i prefer have template (e.g. html), fill data , save pdf, rather doing in code.

i wrote pdf reporting component myself presumably similar requirements:

• templating done via html / css
• static header / footer on each page

you can achieve uiprintpagerenderer , uiviewprintformatter apis, downside of getting app rejected in app store review, since you're using private apple apis. approach might viable in academic setting or if developing in-house apps.

there tutorials on how i'm not going repeat, me these resources quite useful:
