Problem with NSData to NSString to NSData


  • Subject: Problem with NSData to NSString to NSData

Dear Cocoa-dev People,

I have a file with some metadata prepended to a pdf.

I want to strip the metadata off and display the pdf.

I was trying to do this:

- (void) loadFromPath: (NSString *) path
{
  NSData *myData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:path];

  NSString *myStr = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:pdfData
                                      encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];

  // I strip off the metadata here, leaving the pdfStr.

  // Nothing I've tried here has worked:
  NSData * myNewData = [pdfStr dataUsingEncoding: ???];

  // Display the pdf here...
}

How can I get this to work?

Sincerely,

Joel Norvell
