HTML5, JS Based PDF Reader for Web App

Question

Well, after a lot of searching, i realy can't find a solution for my problem. I'll explain what is about.

Im building a series of apps for iPhone, iPad, Android phone, Android Tablet, using HTML5, PhoneGap. The app is alredy coded and done, using ChildBrowser plugin for PhoneGap. So basically, i upload PDF files of magazine on my server, the app, download it and you read it on your phone or tablet.

ChildBrowser is a good solution, but for something small. My pdf files are about 15mb each, so you need to wait while it download the whole pdf file and then it will come on the screen. It is a pretty rough solution for a magazine. I tried pdf.js but it cant render graphics of the pdf. I saw flexpaper zine, but its too expensive.

Anybody have any ideas please? Thank you!

I don't know much about this, but one of my favorite magazines, Full Circle Magazine, uses Scribd last I knew. I don't know how it works, but it may be worth looking into.

有两种选择，您可以将单个pdf（15mb）文件切成单页pdf数，然后根据用户要求加载（在用户阅读完上一页之前，更经常地加载下2个3），或者将pdf中的每个页面转换为jpg。图像并将其加载到Web视图中。bot这些技术需要用于切片或转换pdf的工具。
