PDF interaction with Swift

I want to display a PDF and make the user interact with it. Specifically I want:

  • Show a PDF
  • That the user can click on the PDF (with long tap for example) and add a mark. I want this mark to be a personalized image.
  • Capture the event when a user taps on one of these marks.
  • I want these marks to be recoverable. That is, I want to recover the pdf coordinates where these marks are to be able to save them and retrieve them at another time.

I have looked for solutions like PDFTron or PDFKit but I can't find the way to satisfy these requirements. Is there any way to satisfy this requirements with these solutions or other solutions?

Thanks

Assuming that you are talking about iOS Development in Swift, I have used these libraries before and I would definitely recommend these:

Open Source:

  1. LazyPDFKit
  • Show a PDF ✅
  • Supports Basic PDF annotation (But no image) ✅
  • Event Listener/Delegate ✅
  • Recoverable/Undoable ✅
  1. TPPDF
    • Show a PDF ✅
    • Supports Basic PDF annotation ‍♂️
    • Event Listener/Delegate ✅
    • Recoverable/Undoable ✅

However, if you have some money to spend:

  1. PSPDFKIT
  • Everything related to PDF ✅

P.S. If you just need to annotate a PDF PDFDrawingView would be enough.
