can not open PDF files.

I am working all night today... but in the middle of the night during a break I installed latest update.

Suddenly I can not open PDF files. Moreover, when trying to import them to Notify app (as I was doing 1h ago) from icloud it says that the file is not compatible (the very same one I was working with 1h ago)

I solved the problem myself!


Now the viewer works everywhere and the pdf files are recognised as pdf files.

I started uninstalling all my unzip apps, it did not solve the trouble. Then I installed my DJVU viewer and voila! now the pdf files are recognised so I can open and edit pdf files open in mail (which I could not before) and I can now also import to Notify my pdf files, as well as open pdf files directly from my iCloud folders with the iOS pdf viewer.
