Alas, you can't do anything about PDF shown in a UIWebView.

You need to work hard parsing PDF files and manipulating it.

No, you just can't do anything inside the UIWebView. You need to read the PDF specification and work hard. Or buy the PDF annotator code from the people making GoodReader, if they sell their UIKit views.
