Same issue here! I am using RN 0.72.6.

[Igor Pimentel]

same! expo sdk 50.0.2

I also have this issue in Expo and needed the app out asap so i did a workaround.

In my case i could download the pdf and store it in the bundled assets on android and only load from url on ios. But since it's expo and it builds the android folder itself, i wrote a plugin for it.

The plugin js file i placed in the root of my project

// withCopyPdf.js
const { withDangerousMod } = require("@expo/config-plugins");
const fs = require("fs");
const path = require("path");

module.exports = function withCopyPdf(config, { pdfFilename }) {
  return withDangerousMod(config, [
    "android",
    async config => {

      // Replace the path with the path to where you keep your pdf
      const filePath = path.join(
        config.modRequest.projectRoot,
        "assets",
        "documents",
        pdfFilename
      );

      const destPath = path.join(
        config.modRequest.platformProjectRoot,
        "app",
        "src",
        "main",
        "assets",
        pdfFilename
      );

      if (!fs.existsSync(filePath)) {
        throw new Error(`File ${filePath} does not exist`);
      }

      if (!fs.existsSync(path.dirname(destPath))) {
        fs.mkdirSync(path.dirname(destPath), { recursive: true });
      }

      fs.copyFileSync(filePath, destPath);

      return config;
    },
  ]);
};

In my case i had the pdf in my js source at assets/documents/pdfFilename.pdf

then i updated my app.config.json plugin array like this

"plugins": [
      ["./withCopyPdf", { "pdfFilename": "pdfFilename.pdf" }],
]

Then i can use it in my app like this:

const source = Platform.OS === "ios"
    ? {
        uri: "https://remote-pdf.com/pdfFilename.pdf",
        cache: true,
      }
    : { uri: "bundle-assets://pdfFilename.pdf" };

Hope it can help anyone needing a quick workaround until this issue is solved.

In my case, I was able to show a PDF in React Native 0.72 using another library called react-native-view-pdf.

add trustAllCerts={false} i fixed my problem 。 you can try <Pdf
style={{
width: pxToDp(355),
height: pxToDp(245),
}}
trustAllCerts={false}
source={source}
onError={(e)=>{
console.log('Pdf onError ' + JSON.stringify(e));
}}
/>
