Hi folks,
I'm new to Firefox OS and will be building an app for schools in Africa where 
opening PDFs is extremely important. I see from the Web Activities API 
documentation (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/WebAPI/Web_Activities) 
that it can be used to open a file of type PDF.  I have a number of questions 
about PDFs and Firefox OS, perhaps we could turn this thread into a wiki page 
on developer.mozilla.org.  

@Horst Klier, you are using an anchor tag to open a PDF?  Are the results 
different from using Web Activities to open PDFs?

Does Firefox OS open the PDF in a separate App or does it open it in the 
context of your App?  

When the PDF opens, what is being used at the underlying rendering engine (ie. 
PDF.js or a native Linux PDF rendering binary)? 

Thanks for any help! :-)

Be well,
R.J. Steinert
