Fill screen with PDF in webviewer

I have a webviewer that is loading a PDF from a container field. I'm doing this by using the following calculation in the webviewer: 

"data:application/pdf;base64," & Base64Encode ( iostest::PDF_Current )


The PDF loads fine however on iOS it does not fill the screen (oddly enough on macos, it DOES fill the screen). Auto resizing on the webviewer is set to expand on all sides. The webviewer is the same size as the layout area as well.

I tried to use an iframe with the method below however it still doesn't expand: 

"data:text/html,<!doctype><html>
<body>
<iframe src='data:application/pdf;base64," & Base64Encode ( iostest::PDF_Current ) & "' style='width:100%;height:100%;'></iframe>
</body>
</html>

What can I do to get the PDF to be full screen on iOS in a webviewer? See attached image for reference.

FileMaker Go or your own iOS SDK based app? For the second, we could offer plugin help.
