E elitistnot Member Licensed User Longtime User Aug 3, 2012 #3 Just jumping into the conversation here... Hello, I'm just jumping into the conversation here because I would also like to know how to do this. I'm fairly new to B4A and wanted to add my two cents; Would it be possible using the phone library to send the PDF to the Android OS to handle using; phoneintents.openbrowser("http://www.somedomain.com/some.pdf") ??? Thanks. Upvote 0
