Default UIView to editable PDF. Possible?

Hi, I am trying to convert a UIView to pdf (iOS) with textfields and labels etc. I managed to do it by using renderInContext. However, it captures the whole UIView as an "image" which is not really what I want.

As I have textviews, textfields and buttons in my UIView may I know whether it is possible to convert the UIView into pdf and still make the textfields etc. editable in the pdf? (eg. I am still able to make changes in the pdf, where the textfield etc is at - editable pdf, when it is already converted to pdf format.)

If so, how can I go about doing this?

Thanks in advance,
Grace

you can generate pdf, but is not so easy, and need a little effort

So it is possible to do that right? So the text(s) in the pdf file can be editable?
Thanks for your reply(:

Thanks for your reply(:
the idea is to show a pdf, and then regenerate it, rendering the new informations that user selected. See the posted link to understand how you can generate a pdf.
