I'm trying to convert my program with PDFKit to CGPDF to get better
performance. I'm trying to crop a page, with PDFPage I can simply do:
[PDFPage setBounds: forBox:kPDFDisplayMediaBox];

But for CGPDFPageRef, there seems to be only a CGPDFPageGetBoxRect
available. I wonder if I can simply change the mediabox with a function?


CGPDFDocumentRef (and associated data types) are read-only. If you need to change something about a PDF, you need to create a CGPDFContext and draw the old PDF into the new one. This is one of many details that PDFKit hides from you, so I would likely try to solve your issues with PDFKit rather than rewriting your code to use CG directly.
