Hey @dookki, do you mind sharing the URL of the pdf and your implementation if possible.

[houkhan]

Hey The url I'm using is https://css4.pub/2015/textbook/somatosensory.pdf
I have also encountered related problems. When opening a relatively large pdf, when the PDF is still loading, that is, the loading animation has not disappeared, closing the page at this time will have this problem when rewriting and opening. When following the crash log.

If it cannot be reproduced, you can replace a relatively large pdf, then close it when it is loaded again, and then reopen it. It should be the problem that the resource is not released when the loading is not successful.

[houkhan]

After checking, it is found that it is caused by the if (cachedFile.exists()) of the PdfDownloader checkAndDownload. If it is closed without downloading successfully, the file is damaged and tries to modify it. However, this will trigger a re-download every time.

        if (cachedFile.exists()) {
            cachedFile.deleteRecursively()
        }
        download(downloadUrl, cachedFileName)

[houkhan]

Or modify it like this.
This will try to download again after the pdf fails to open.

        if (cachedFile.exists()) {
            try {
                listener.onDownloadSuccess(cachedFile.absolutePath)
            } catch (e: Exception) {
                download(downloadUrl, cachedFileName)
            }

        } else {
            download(downloadUrl, cachedFileName)
        }
