##PDFViewer for Cordova iOS

$ git clone https://github.com/RandyMcMillan/PDFViewer.git

PDFViewer is meant for one purpose. To view PDFs that are included in the native file structure of your app.

Familiar usage:

"showPDF" usage is exactly like ChildBrowser's "showWebPage" except you send a bundled pdf file name instead of a url.

##Install:

Copy PDFViewer to your project plugin folder.
