Sorry to answer this so late. I just came across this problem myself so thought I'd pass along my wisdom.

My guess is you are downloading the PDF to the temporary directory. This framework is looking for the file in the NSDocumentDirectory. So when you go to save the downloaded file just save to a path like this:

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *baseDocumentPath = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *filePath = [baseDocumentPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"/temp.pdf"];

Once you do that it will load correctly.

p.s If I end up modifying ReaderDocument to allow for a temporary directory I'll post the edits here.
