I suffer from the error of reading pdf files through PDF Reader, so that the pages do not appear 100% in the reader and make modifications to it and do not show it as originally

The image below shows an example, which is the same problem on the experience through the phone

Can you post a link to your project? And also the PDF file that you are using?

Hi @ZakariaOUTALEB, thanks for reaching out about this.

This is a known issue with the PDF reader component in web based projects. However, it is not something we have seen with projects viewed via the Thunkable Live app or via a downloaded or built app on iOS or Android.

Yes. The PDFs are showing up fullscreen for me when I preview your project on an iPhone 13 Pro:
