SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

PaperKit provides a unified markup experience — the same framework powering markup in Notes, Screenshots, QuickLook, and Journal. It combines PencilKit drawing with structured markup elements (shapes, text boxes, images, lines) in a single canvas managed by PaperMarkupViewController. Requires Swift 6.3 and the iOS 26+ SDK.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Unified PaperMarkupViewController for interactive markup on documents
  • Insertion UI controllers (MarkupEditViewController / MarkupToolbarViewController) across platforms
  • Comprehensive FeatureSet configuration for drawing, text, images, shapes, and more
  • Smooth PencilKit integration with async dataRepresentation and multi-platform rendering
  • Background content embedding via contentView for page-doc annotations

Quick Start

Import PaperKit, create a PaperMarkup with bounds, instantiate PaperMarkupViewController(markup: markup, supportedFeatureSet: features), attach it to your view, and retain a PKToolPicker for editing.
