displaying pdf file in UIScrollview Horizontally

In a pdf file using UIWebView, I need to scroll horizontally instead of vertically. I have created UIScrollView in the form:

UIScrollView *scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] init];
scrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(2000, 420);
scrollView.bounces = NO;
scrollView.alwaysBounceHorizontal = NO;
scrollView.alwaysBounceVertical = NO;
scrollView.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];

and now adding the UIWebView in to UIScrollView as

[scrollView addSubview:webView];

it is not displaying the pdf file but if i give code like this

[self.view addSubview:webView];

now it displays the file but it vertical scroll

I need to make it to scroll horizontally please help me. Thanks in advance.

You can straight away put the pdf on UIWebView and if it is multiple pages it will scroll automatically. You can try the code below

UIWebView *webView = [[UIWebview alloc]init];

webView.frame = "SET FRAME"

[self.view addSubView:webView];

// create a URL for the pdf file which is in you project

NSURL *pdfURL = [[NSBundle mainBundle]URLForResource:"Name of pdf" withExtension:@"pdf"];**

[webView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:pdfURL]];

//just to show the scroll indicators

[webView.scrollView flashScrollIndicators];

I do it this way....

After your code:

UIScrollView *scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] init];
scrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(2000, 420);
scrollView.bounces = NO;
scrollView.alwaysBounceHorizontal = NO;
scrollView.alwaysBounceVertical = NO;
scrollView.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[scrollView addSubview:webView];

add this also:

[self.view addSubview:scrollView];

if you have not added it earlier.
