About PrintingKit

PrintingKit is a Swift SDK that helps you print images, strings, views, PDFs etc. in Swift and SwiftUI.

With PrintingKit, you just have to create a Printer instance, or use Printer.shared, then use it to print any of these supported PrintItem types:

• .attributedString(_:configuration:) - an attributed string.
• .imageData(_:) - JPG or PNG data.
• .imageFile(at:) - a JPG or PNG file at a certain URL.
• .pdfData(_:) - PDF document data.
• .pdfFile(at:) - a PDF document file at a certain URL.
• .string(_:configuration:) - a plain string.
• .view(_:withScale:) - a SwiftUI view.

More types can be added in the future. Feel free to contribute if you have a new type that you'd like to support.

Getting started

To print any of supported print item type, just create a Printer instance, or use Printer.shared:

struct MyView: View {

    let printer = Printer.shared

    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button("Print PDF") {
                try? printer.print(.pdf(at: anyUrl))
            }
            Button("Print view") {
                try? printer.print(image)
            }
            Button("Print view without try") {
                printer.printInTask(image)
            }
        }
    }
}
