Actually Kevin, sorry but...

users need to be aware about Android. The statement "Bear in mind however
that basic display is already possible with the browser included in all
editions of LC." is not 100% accurate. A PDF does NOT display within the
web browser in Android. We ended up having to use the Android mergExt
external to display a PDF. This is an Android issue, not LiveCode, but this
is all the more reason the community should band together and get a PDF
viewer created. I will be happy to contribute some resources!!!

But I agree with Kevin. Everyone shouts Open Source, but few are willing to
put in the time and efforts it takes to make it happen. Send me an email if
you are interested in the PDF viewer. I will get one of my C guys to start
looking into it. We just need to learn LiveCode Builder.
