nus-soc-print-ios

An iOS-Swift application that prints office documents and PDF files to Unix printers in NUS School Of Computing via SSH. The Android version exists here.

This app has been approved on the App Store. If you want to know more, I have written a user/dev guide that can be found in the user-dev-guide directory.

##Features

  1. Print PDF, DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX and ODT files
  2. Page range to be printed
  3. Remaining quota check
  4. Print Status Check
  5. Page formatting for documents
  6. Accepts file exports from other apps like IVLE, Dropbox, Google Drive and the web browser.
  7. Deleting of existing job in print queue
  8. Runs on iOS7.0 and up for maximum compatibility

##Compiling the project

  1. Swift is only available from Xcode 6 so you have to use that.
  2. Install Cocoapods sudo gem install cocoapods.
  3. Change directory to where you pulled the project and run pod install.
  4. Open the project using NUS SOC Print.xcworkspace instead of the .xcodeproject file.
  5. You may need to adjust the team name to deploy on your personal device. Go to Project Settings, General, NUS SOC Print Target. Choose None or your team name from the drop down menu.

Hi, thank you so much for this super useful app. Unfortunately it seems like this app is no longer available on iOS App Store, is that true? Is there anyway to get this back?

Thanks!
