Try this code:

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSArray *pdfs = [[NSBundle bundleWithPath:[paths objectAtIndex:0]] pathsForResourcesOfType:@"pdf" inDirectory:nil];

Hope this helps. Thanks.

This answer is already posted by many. You can Save PDF content which is the URL format like below code

NSData *savedPDFFile = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"pdf_url"]]; 
[savedPDFFile writeToFile:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@", [[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath], @"savedpdffilename.pdf"] atomically:YES];

Hope it helps you...!

For sending PDF File use send-bundled-pdf-to-ibooks-from-within-app . Same is for newsstand . Note : Firstly save PDF File in directory then use the path to share

For displaying PDF in own application user apple's QLPreviewController . check sample code

Other third party for free for displaying PDF is :

1. Reader
2. FastPDFKit . Note : Free version availbale
