Hi @nhhockeyplayer ,

I use the embed tag to display the pdf. It depends on the browser how it's rendered.
If you want to be sure that local pdf file are shown correctly on each browser then I would recommend using pdf.js: https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng2-pdfjs-viewer. I will update the readme with more info about pdf rendering.

I'm not planning to do a lot of effort to support cordova or ionic in this library. Think this become more stackoverflow question right now :)

I haven't used ionic but did create a cordova app. You can check whether your app is running in cordova and call a cordova plugin right? Maybe you could call something like this: https://github.com/sitewaerts/cordova-plugin-document-viewer.

Did you try pdf.js? Didn't that work?
