Is it possible to create a PDF file from a UITableView?

My application has a table view with custom cells (including a text box, shortcut and button), I want to generate a PDF file from a table.

Below is the code (now suppose the contents of the table are viewed):

    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(self._tableView.bounds.size);
    UIGraphicsBeginPDFPageWithInfo(CGRectMake(0, 0, self._tableView.bounds.size.width, self._tableView.bounds.size.height), nil);

    // what the code here?
    // [self._tableView drawInRect:];

    UIGraphicsEndPDFContext();

I always create an empty PDF file. I am currently creating a tableview view as an image, then drawing the image in the current context, and then getting the pdf file. but any good idea?

HI, you can convert the current view as an image through the following code, and then you must use this image to create a PDF file through a link

    - (UIImage *)captureView:(UIView *)view {
    CGRect screenRect = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];

    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(screenRect.size);

    CGContextRef ctx = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
    [[UIColor blackColor] set];
    CGContextFillRect(ctx, screenRect);

    [view.layer renderInContext:ctx];

    UIImage *newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();

    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    return newImage;
   }

,

UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(screenRect.size, NO, 0.0) 


UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(screenRect.size)
