Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 9.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

so... technically, there's one thing to clarify: if you're building from your computer, it definitely won't work... at least that's how it is for me. It usually only works with EAS build and GitHub Actions, both of which use Ubuntu (Linux) machines to generate the final application. So, if you're using your computer, try using EAS build or GitHub Actions (feel free to ask, and I'll send you everything you need).

If that's not the case, my first advice is to look at react-native-pdf-lib; it might have some issues. Maybe you haven't installed it correctly, or the version is deprecated. So essentially, try to resolve it, and if it doesn't work, try removing it using npm uninstall react-native-pdf-lib or yarn remove react-native-pdf-lib and then try again... In my opinion, the potential issue might be with mismatched versions.

Some might suggest trying something else; I'll direct you to a possible question here on Stack Overflow that might help you.
