Sadly not that I'm aware of. Somehow it is still impossible to freaking show a
PDF in any kind of Android webview. Insane!
My current workaround is converting PDFs to PNGs... so lame but the only
reasonable option/fallback for now. =/

> Add PDF support to the InAppBrowser within Android
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-3325
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3325
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Android
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Environment: Windows 7, Eclipse v3.8.0
> Reporter: Kelvin Dart
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: Master
>
>
> When I was making use of the ChildBrowser for both iOS and Android, I wrote
> an extra bit of code to enable PDF support for the Android version (which
> started up the installed PDF application if there was one).
> I also understand that the Android WebView doesn't natively support viewing a
> PDF document which is why it doesn't fully behave like the iOS version - but
> is it possible to either: 1) write similar code which, if the opened URL is
> directed to a PDF file, then it opens the native PDF reader or; 2) integrate
> a PDF view into the InAppBrowser which opens a PDF document much like
> InAppBrowser does on iOS.
> (1) is what I currently have working at the moment and would probably be
> easiest. (2) is what would be very good but I expect more difficult to
> achieve.
