Description
#### General information
* **App version:** 2.3
* **System:** Android 8
## Description
The goal is to first check if it's easy possible to add PDF viewing to Markor, using [Mozilla's pdf.js](https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/getting_started/). If so, add it to Markor.
Note: There are many (java/c/native) alternatives out there, however only javascript based is of interest for Markor ---> So no, mupdf or alike are wanted.

Research direction
Start by reviewing Markor's ViewMode implementation and Mozilla's pdf.js getting-started guidance, then compare the linked Android WebView and GrapheneOS PdfViewer examples. Determine whether a JavaScript-based PDF viewer fits Markor's Android support, including Android 8; done means PDF files can be viewed in ViewMode without using native PDF libraries.
