Preload UIImage for super-smooth interaction. especially great if you use JPGs, which otherwise produce a noticeable lag on the main thread.
- (UIImage *)pspdf_preloadedImage {
CGImageRef image = self.CGImage;
// make a bitmap context of a suitable size to draw to, forcing decode
size_t width = CGImageGetWidth(image);
size_t height = CGImageGetHeight(image);
CGColorSpaceRef colourSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB();
CGContextRef imageContext = CGBitmapContextCreate(NULL, width, height, 8, width*4, colourSpace,
kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedFirst | kCGBitmapByteOrder32Little);
