A new media engine to support PDF files
Almost directly related to the same video
suffrage that mobile and tablet units have with video, the same issues are also
true with the popular Adobe Reader package. Whilst highly portable and
successful for desktop devices such as Linux, Mac OSX and Microsoft Windows –
Adobe use their own PDF “App” to provide web support for their PDF format.
Unfortunately they do not [as yet] provide
the ability to actively embed a PDF file for use directly within a website.
They do however, provide a freely downloadable Adobe Reader “App” as a download
from iTunes or Google Play Store.
Our team have re-written our PDF detector to
now provide ‘fallback’ support for any mobile and tablet devices that do not
have the “App” installed. This means that even if the user has not installed
the free application, that the file will be downloaded to the device.
Note:
Again, My Learning highly recommend that
users download and install the “Adobe Reader” application from their respective
application store in order to support Adobe PDF files.
