It’s been a while since I looked at Corona but my company has a project for a new app that will require displaying many PDFs. The PDFs will need to be part of the app since it will need to display them even without internet access.
Is this possible? This will be a cross-platform app - Android and iPhone, so I’m hoping there is a solution that will work in both.
Thanks!
Pro and Enterprise subscribers have access to our Quick Look plugin ( http://docs.coronalabs.com/plugin/CoronaProvider_native_popup_quickLook/index.html ) which will display PDFs along with other document types. If I remember correctly PDF’s are tricky on Android. I think it wants to always download them and then show them using the device’s native player.

Thanks!
Will the plugin not work in Android or is there a workaround?
The plugin is iOS specific. I’m unaware of a workaround for Android. You might want to research showing PDF’s from an Android App and see what people using native development are doing.
