Split the PDF into 5, 6, … 10 parts and load them one after the other. After downloading the first part, display it while the rest are downloading in the background.

Can you elaborate more… because I have same issue

thanx for reply,
can you provide any example?

Search in comunnity about This subject ok ?

I can not find such documentation (split pdf) in community…If someone can provide any related link,that will be helpful

is it possible, to compress pdf file before you show? internet have online pdf compressors.

Still it will compress it about 70 mb to 25-30 mb…and also will reduce its quality…
And as user mentioned,she is making newspaper app.so user will need to zoom it and read it …it must having good quality

I think my suggestion is simple enough. What should be explained in more detail?

If the problem is how to split a PDF file, then it’s not a question for Kodular, it’s a question for Google. There are dozens of tools that can do this.

Nope,it not a matter of splitting pdf
It’s matter hof how to display this splitted pdf as single pdf to user…
Because user will only click once

If the user / reader has reached / read the end of the first PDF part, for example show a button to the new PDF file (part 2) and so on …

I think it’s not possible to merge the PDF parts into one PDF in the app.

But I don’t know which reader is this
This loads page one by one…so it might work good for large file
