Opening 2D Representations through Creo View Mobile or WIndchill Mobile

Opening 2D Representations through Creo View Mobile or WIndchill Mobile

I was hoping there would be support on Windchill Mobile and Creo View Mobile to open 2D representations, but at this point I cannot figure out a solution.  I am trying to view Drawings on my iPad to further implement this so all of the factory workers can quickly pull up a digital, 2D representation on the shop floor versus the paper drawings we have now. 

 

I have both the Creo View App and the Windchill Mobile app, and I am able to open all of our 3D representations (Parts and Assemblies), but I can't figure out why we cannot open Drawings or pull PDF's through Windchill to the iPad.  On the DEMO system of Windchill Mobile, that comes pre-loaded when you download the app, there is a PDF file right on the front page.  The DEMO system allows you to open the PDF and look at the viewable right from the App.  If I access our system, the drawing (all of these are represented, .pvz, .pdf, .drw) I cannot view anything 2D.

 

Why does the source code of the App allow the DEMO system to load PDF's and 2D Viewables, but I can't load new ones?

We also have a need to open PDF drawing, but it cannot.  We are looking to use new Microsoft Surface Pro with full Windows 10 capability to open the Windchill via browser.  If this works fine, we may not deploy the Windchill and Creo View App, because it cannot service our users to our need.
