    let options = { 
        files: [ 'storage/emulated/0/Download/20180702_121938.pdf', 'storage/emulated/0/Download/10180702_121938.pdf' ]
    };
    
    // 2- byNames is false here, options contain External File Uri and byNames
    let options = { 
        files: [ 'storage/emulated/0/Download/20180702_121938.pdf', 'storage/emulated/0/Download/10180702_121938.pdf' ], 
        byNames: false 
    };

    // 3- byNames is true, options contain filenames and byNames
    let options = { 
        files: [ '20180702_121938.pdf', '10180702_121938.pdf' ], 
        byNames: true
