let me clarify.
once a user click on the help button, it downloads a fresh copy from my
server using tsnet.
after that i copy it to the folder on the sdcard.
then launch it.
Android can ask how you want to open it, it can be simply done in Chrome.
when closing Chrome then it goes auto back to my app. (probably because
that was the one which launched Chrome

Hey Ralph,
"The latest phones usually come with a built-in PDF reader."

I am sure it's not the experience for everyone, but I very rarely
view PDF files on my phone. When I do, I use any PDF reader that I
want. Adobe Reader is free. I know you said "natively", but like
in some Linux camps, we don't always want everything ever made to be
installed. /jovial tone 🙂

OK, lets say we have an LC Android app that has just printed to pdf
and the file is in ther users DOCUMENTS folder. Can we then just:
...
launch url(specialfolderpath("documents") & "/a_pdf.pdf")
...
and one of the above mentioned (installed) PDF Reader will just kick in,
or is this prohibited by our app's Sandbox?
Best
Klaus
