-------------------------------------
[~ralphbhardy@icloud.com] Is this happening in a vanilla cordova project? If not, please open an issue on the NgCordova repo as it could be an issue with our wrapper.

> Project: Apache Cordova

> Components: Android
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Environment: Windows 7, Eclipse v3.8.0
> Reporter: Kelvin Dart
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: Master

> When I was making use of the ChildBrowser for both iOS and Android, I wrote an extra bit of code to enable PDF support for the Android version (which started up the installed PDF application if there was one).
> I also understand that the Android WebView doesn't natively support viewing a PDF document which is why it doesn't fully behave like the iOS version - but is it possible to either: 1) write similar code which, if the opened URL is directed to a PDF file, then it opens the native PDF reader or; 2) integrate a PDF view into the InAppBrowser which opens a PDF document much like InAppBrowser does on iOS.
> (1) is what I currently have working at the moment and would probably be easiest. (2) is what would be very good but I expect more difficult to achieve.
