Hi Mobile, So Xamarin > Monotouch provides a PDF library that runs on iOS and Android > and can be used to generate offline PDFs from a device-side database? > No it doesn't. However you can try to run iTextSharp on that platform and hope that everything will work on each device. (Which i personally doubt - but give it a try) E.g. barcode generation will not work etc.
