iPhone Text and Image Display - iphone

I am creating a ebook iPhone application and it consists of a bunch of pages.
My problem is some of the pages consists of images.
Is there a way to put the text and image in the same component.
What would be the best way to acheive this?
Thanks

You can't embed an image in a UITextField, nor the more appropriate UITextView. Consider turning your text into HTML, and using a UIWebView to display it. This would allow you to easily embed images into the text.

PDF view in IPhone?

I have an IPhone application in which i need to have pdf pages view like a book.Is there any way to load a PDF document in a UIWebview so that it can scroll horizontally instead of vertically? Is it possible?If so some one give me the way to do this .Can someone help me?
You cannot do that using a UIWebView neither a QLPreviewController. They do what they do and are no customizable. They use a vertical scroll to present pages from a pdf document.
Your only chance is to open PDF with Quartz framework and access to each page, there are good apple tutorials for this topic. Then you can present separate pages as you want in a UIScrollView with a UIPageControl, much better, a UIPageViewController.
I found an open project. i think it's use full

Is it possible to change the default play icon for video tags on the iPhone?

I'm working on a mobile-optimized version of a client site that contains many HTML5 video tags. When viewing on the iPhone it's displaying the default play button watermark. Is it possible to customize this icon?
I don't think you can do this in the HTML, because the play icon you're seeing is in fact an (undocumented) UIButton subclass that's laid on-top of the webpage. It's not an HTML element, it's a UIKit one.
I have messed around in the past with modifying this button, but you need to perform various dodgy operations on a UIWebView from Objective-C, not HTML, so it's probably not much help to you (even if it was, it's all undocumented so not suitable for production use anyway).

How to embed links in a Quartz PDF View

I am using Quartz to display a PDF if my iPad app rather than a webview as I dont link the borders and drop shadow effects the webview adds.
Can I still use embedded links in the PDFs? If so do I need to do anything special or will they just work?

How to display barcode in iPhone

I don't need reading the barcode, I just want to show the string in barcode lines.

Then find yourself a barcode font

No, there is no built-in way to display barcodes. You'll have to create a custom view to convert and display them yourself. Simplest way would probably be to make each black line an opaque, empty UIView and add a lot of them with the correct frames to a UIView subclass.
