Opening a PDF in openfl

#1

I have seen this post [android] Open local (pdf) file?
but I am wondering if there is a way of opening a pdf file in openfl.
I have tried with the library format, it reads only the generic structure and does some partial encryption.

Thus, I have been wondering if importing an Adobe Air project in openfl is possible.
or I must cross that idea and make another application read the pdf.

I am wondering about this too. I want to make a reader app using OpenFL but I have my doubts.

Perhaps AlivePDF could be ported

Otherwise you could just use the default system viewer, which is probably easier/safer for now

@singmajesty

Can the default viewer embedded in the aplication?

#5

I mean, like Preview on Mac, or the Windows PDF viewer, or Acrobat, or whatever the user may have installed

#6

You can execute the file path on Windows, run “open file.pdf” on Mac, or “xdg-open file.pdf” on Linux in order to execute the default handler

I see. I am more curious about the Mobile stuff myself.
