PDFOperationWithView doesn't do pagination. Instead you need to set the job
disposition to generate a file rather than to output to a printer. Something
like this:
NSDictionary *printInfoDictionary = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
NSPrintSaveJob, NSPrintJobDisposition,
urlToSave, NSPrintJobSavingURL, // use NSPrintSavePath on 10.5 or below.
[NSNumber numberWithBOOL:hideExtension],
NSPrintJobSavingFileNameExtensionHidden, // only on 10.6 or above.
nil];
NSPrintInfo *printInfo = [[[NSPrintInfo alloc]
initWithDictionary:printInfoDictionary] autorelease];
NSPrintOperation *operation = [NSPrintOperation printOperationWithView:view
printInfo:printInfo];
