iPhone UIWebView PDF Page Jump

I want to view a local PDF (in my iPhone app) and be able to jump to a specific page. Seems like the UIWebView is the way to go, however, I can't find any information on jumping to specific pages. Is this impossible? Are there any other techniques I can use?

thanks, Howie

Another option would be to set the content offset of the UIWebView like Mike pointed out (but without involving JavaScript):

webView.ScrollView.SetContentOffset(new PointF(0, y), true);

(sorry for the MonoTouch code but ObjectiveC is still on my todo list)

Alternatively to an UIWebView, you can use the Quartz API :http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/GraphicsImaging/Conceptual/drawingwithquartz2d/dq_pdf/dq_pdf.html

It's more complicated, but you should be able to do whatever you want.

You can try using Javascript. See this link for more details. You'll want to use something along the lines of @"window.scrollTo(0, x);", where x is some value you determined by playing around with the WebView.
