How to open documents located in Local Storage in android using WebView?

I have a doc/ppt/xls file located in my sd card. I want to open it without any third party app (i.e within my app itself) using webview. Though I am able to open documents by embedding it in google docs url like -
http://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url=[filelinkHere]
But how to open a file located in internal or external storage in webview ?
Also, Suggest me any third party ALL-IN-ONE library for android to view all types of documents. I have tried ASPOS but it has few unresolved bugs and APACHE-POI is difficult to use.
I had the same issue few days ago .
i found Android PdfViewer best to view PDF files and Android PdfMyXml best to create pdf files in android.
For working with Word and Excel as a most reliable answer I suggest you to take a look at OliveDocLibrary .
If your documents are in cloud so there is an alternative way to display docx,pptx,pdf and such formats with a combination of Webview and googleDoc.
You might find other possible solutions in server-side machines or maybe a creative way!
Hope it help
You can integrate some library project to your project with which you can open the pdf file inside your app.

Im still new to android (and coding in any matter) but i need to create and app that opens a pdf file (CV in my case) and reads phone number and email from it. Any ideas (tutorial links) how to do it? :)
You could use iText library: http://itextpdf.com/
In FAQ, there's a question: "Can I extract/parse information from pdf ?"

Read the contents of the PDF file onto a webView

In my project I have to load the contents of a PDF located in the assets folder onto a WebView.Can It be achieved directly just by reading the contents onto a WebView.. I googled a lot and I found that i need to use third party PDF readers to achieve the same?
If so, Plz give me the links of the source of the PDF reader of GITHUB. Am not able to find it..
If you load pdf inside the webview, unicode text type or images wont be visible. So you want
to go for OCR tool.
Use set of libraries and sdk
This might help you

mupdf is the best library in terms of performance and all i have found till now, you can also use it in your application.
But it needs knowledge of ndk.

How to load a .pdf or a .doc file in android

I want to show a pdf (preferably) or a word document in my app; like a privacy notice screen. Many applications have it, so it should be possible. i tried loading a simple text file as a start but doesn't provide formatting, fonts or trade mark symbols. I've gone through a few posts but I couldn't apply it to my app. Could anyone tell me how is it done? Could I store the file somewhere in res folder and provide a path to open it through my code? I looked into the following link but I'm not sure if that's the right approach in my case android: open a pdf from my app using the built in pdf viewer.
Android does not support opening PDF and DOC files natively. You'd have to make your own implementation.
Like t0mm13b said, you should consider using HTML (+ CSS) instead and use a WebView.
