How can I embed a PDF viewer for a phonegap application? I have decided to use PhoneGap + Sencha Touch to develop an application for iOS and Android.
There’s not much documentation for mixing PhoneGap and ObjC, but here is some example code that lets you embed PhoneGap with an ObjectiveC-Application. For the PDF viewer, you can either use basic ones like Apple’s QuickLook or UIWebView, or more advanced ones like PSPDFKit.
For Android, you could simply search for an Intent that is capable of displaying pdf (like Adobe’s official Reader for Android) or integrate a full PDF viewer yourself. There’s an open source project for that, but it looks not quite complete. Or check out apv, or droidreader, which is GPLv3.
