Three minutes implementation guide

This guide is also available as screencast number 4.

• Clone the repository from github or just grab the compressed archive;
• Open your existing project in Xcode;
• Open the downloaded folder in the Finder and locate FastPdfKit.embeddedframework;
• Drag the framework on the Xcode workspace;
• Inherit the project options: select the Project an from info tab and configurations line choose FastPdfKitFramework from the drop down list;
• Open the framework's Resource folder and locate the Snippets.txt document;

• Copy in you controller interface these lines:

    #import <FastPdfKit/FastPdfKit.h>
    @class MFDocumentManager;
    -(IBAction)actionOpenPlainDocument:(id)sender;
  

• Copy in your controller implementation these other lines:

    -(IBAction)actionOpenPlainDocument:(id)sender{
        /** Set document name */
        NSString *documentName = @"Manual";
  
        /** Get temporary directory to save thumbnails */
        NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
  
        /** Set thumbnails path */
        NSString *thumbnailsPath = [[paths objectAtIndex:0] stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",documentName]];
  
        /** Get document from the App Bundle */
        NSURL *documentUrl = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle]pathForResource:documentName ofType:@"pdf"]];
  
        /** Instancing the documentManager */
        MFDocumentManager *documentManager = [[MFDocumentManager alloc]initWithFileUrl:documentUrl];
  
        /** Instancing the readerViewController */
        ReaderViewController *pdfViewController = [[ReaderViewController alloc]initWithDocumentManager:documentManager];
  
        /** Set resources folder on the manager */
        documentManager.resourceFolder = thumbnailsPath;
  
        /** Set document id for thumbnail generation */
        pdfViewController.documentId = documentName;
  
        /** Present the pdf on screen in a modal view */
        [self presentModalViewController:pdfViewController animated:YES]; 
  
        /** Release the pdf controller*/
        [pdfViewController release];
    }
  

• Choose a pdf from the finder and drop it in the project;

• Change the documentName to the corresponding name;
• Call the actionOpenPlainDocument method to open the document;
• Enjoy.
