Hi adamny, thanks for posting here today! 

 

Have you tried using Files App since you're using an iPad?  That way you could open your content from there.

 

Alternatively, you can open your .pdf from the third party app, and navigate to the Files App in order to locate your Dropbox content.

 

Let me know if you have any questions!
