OK, maybe, but the message should be clear.

I personally do not need this widget, I don't own any mobile device, be it a 
cellphone or table, 
and I am not developing for the mobile platform. :-)

I am just interested in an adequate user experience for everyone using the 
mobile paltform!
some of the folks I am mentoring actually need this.

Right now some of them are maintaining two version of the app (HAVE TO!):
One for iOS, where we can print to and display PDF with build-in means, but the 
Android version
can not print to PDF, we need to use a PNG, same for displaying data.

I don't this this does look very professional in 2020.

And I think it is paradox that we can print to PDF on Android in LC 9.6 but 
still cannot display the 
generated PDF file!


Best

Klaus
