on iOS 17, with Xcode 15, the app freezes when trying to export in PDF the search view with any number of elements. It's working when empty.

I am getting a lot of info out of this tutorial! Thanks for making this available and saving me a tremendous amount of time and more importantly mental pain. One question, I have implemented this but it is saving to the pdf the calling view. How do I make it call any view?

Great app. What is the code that sets the url of the file to be saved in the downloads directory on a device.?

I tried this, but the PDF isn't showing some of the data that is shown in the SwiftUI View. Here is what is happening: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8xz5fmfigkfvy3m/Simulator%20Screen%20Recording%20-%20iPhone%2012%20Pro%20-%202022-03-01%20at%2009.41.05.mp4?dl=0 Any ideas?

Hi. I used this approach to print a VIEW to PDF but its not printing portions that VIEW that use UITextView like TextEditors. (It prints everything like TextFields, Texts but not the UITextViews) if they are defined with a .frame() or a .fixedsize() Do you know how to fix this? I really appreciate a reply. Im really thankful for your work! :)

Thanks you very much. I was doing it with UIGraphicsPDFRenderer because I need paging. But there it is also not easy. I create an array of Items with images or text and have to figure if the next item will fit on the current Page. If not create a new one with .beginPage(). You know, like for Invoices. How would you handle the paging with the SwiftUI solution?
