summary
Shows how to use PDFKit on iOS/macOS to load a PDF, add concrete annotations, and export a modified file. Demonstrates creating a free‑text annotation with font and color, attaching a PDF action URL to a link, generating a QR code via Core Image and embedding it as an image annotation, autoscaling views, rendering pages to UIImage or CG context, writing the PDF to disk or NSData, and a live demo that saves and opens the edited ticket successfully.
