What Document Viewer are you referring to?

See here: https://github.com/sitewaerts/cordova-plugin-document-viewer/issues/83

Strange thing is that your code matches the docs example though. Maybe create an issue at the Ionic Native github repo.

you can call as follows

const options: DocumentViewerOptions = {
      title: 'My PDF'
    }
    this.document.viewDocument('www/assets/help_guide.pdf', 'application/pdf', options)
