The dictionary says that fonts can only be embedded on desktop apps but I have a dim memory we could do it on mobile too. Has anyone done that? -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com

Richard and Brian, I think you guys are on to something. The LiveCode open dialog filter is a different issue than actually being able to open the file as a stack. Thanks. For some reason my OpenStack handler in the Card script isn’t being triggered. This is causing a number of issues

Correct, I misspoke. Running the JavaScript is the limitation on most desktop browsers. The reason for setting up the local web server is to be able to test pdfjs in the IDE. The browser widget is a Chromium codebase. This way one can tweak pdfjs and test in the IDE before deploying to Android.

One of the problems with #3 and above is the people who want your code will probably spend more money and time figuring out a way to steal the uncompiled code than they would spend trying to hack the code. And they most likely have a lot of corrupt connections and money to spend. JB > On Jan

Before the PDF Widget was available I used pdfjs(github) with the browser widget. It's a decent PDF viewer. It does not work directly in the IDE because one can't open local files on a desktop browser. This is NOT a restriction on Android so pdfjs works on mobile(including iOS). I used a local web

I don´t think that Klaus was just asking for himself, but for all developers with a lower license type than Business. As long as the Android Browser does not support displaying PDF files, i think that request is a legitimate one. But you are correct, that this is not a feature request.

I agree. It's easy to imagine that one can acheive absolute security, but in practice it is impossible by nature. Just someone standing over your shoulder or putting a spy camera in place is all that would be needed. The idea then is to make it as difficult and impractical as possible given the
