Whoops, I sent this yesterday but didn't hit reply-all...

Thanks Joel, I just took a look at the PDFAnnotationEditor example. It seems to be doing all of it's transformations in the PDFView subclass. I'm not sure if I am able to do this since I would like to perform the impositions by working strictly with the data of the PDFDocument.

David's book is fantastic, I'm been using it plus a lot of inspiration to get to where I am now. It has been essential on this journey.

In my naiveté, I had hoped that I could cast between the two with a smaller performance penalty than converting PDFDocument -> NSData -> CGPDFDocumentRef. Needless to say, there has been no headway on that front.

I currently have an "Initilalizing..." document modal window activate when I'm initializing the CGPDFDocumentRef so it's not too bad, it would just be nice to avoid this behavior completely.

I realize that perhaps this question might be better suited for quartz- dev, thank you for your insight!

Kevin,

The PDFAnnotationEditor example program does a lot of this sort of thing; have
you looked at it?

Also, any operation you can perform on an NSView also applies to a PDFView;
plus you have the additional PDFView protocol.

Other pertinent resources would be Apple's quartz-dev list and David Gelphman's
beautiful book, Programming With Quartz.

HTH,
Joel
