Using PDFTron PDF Viewer with Titanium Studio or PhoneGap

Q: Do you have any support information on integration of your mobile
PDF viewers with Titanium Studio
(http://www.appcelerator.com/products/titanium-studio/) or PhoneGap
(http://phonegap.com/)?


A:

There are two ways you could use PDFTron viewers in conjunction with
Titanium Studio, PhoneGap, and similar dev platfroms:

You could either use:

a) HTML/JavaScript onliy clinet:

b) Use the native SDK to extend the platform with the native PDF
module: http://www.pdftron.com/pdfnet/mobile/ios_pdf_library.html
http://www.pdftron.com/pdfnet/mobile/android_pdf_library.html


Option a) is much simpler in terms of development and would also work
on all platfroms (Win, Mac, Linux) - not just mobile (iOS, Android,
Win8).

Option b) offers more power and native user experinece.
In this case you would need to extend Titanium/PhoneGap with a native
module on each platfrom. This is explained here:
