Alternate method of viewing PDF files?

rdwalker · 09/20/2011, 05:07 PM

Is there an alternate way of viewing PDF files and PDF email attachments? My viewer seems to dislike most (though not all) PDF's, returning error message "Render Document Failed".

There are a few files I can view, but I still did not figure out what makes them acceptable to the viewer - it does not seem to be the size.

I checked the other PDF-related threads, but no success; the most current one just deteriorated into an unrelated complaint stream, no solutions.

I would not mind using a separate PDF viewer application, if such exists.

Anyone has a good recommendation to make?

As far as I know there exists no other pdf app... recently someone published a javascript pdf reader, it would be great to build that into a webos app.
