"This is an odd one; it's probably a variation on Issue #82838, in which when attempting to use PdfRenderer to display Assets, the wrong Asset is used.
What seems to be the problem is that behavior of PdfRenderer to display Assets depends upon the order of entries within the .apk. If the META-INF entries are first in the .apk, then PdfRenderer won't display PDF assets at all."
