But when I copy the same PDF from the computer to Android device and opened it there using Adobe Reader,
It looks like as following,
What can be the reason for this image distortion. What is the difference in opening this in computer and Android?

Adobe is the issue, If opened from any other viewer it works

Is it possible to load .ai files and open them programmatically?
I wanted to convert .ai files to pdf files and want to show it.I know how to do it in iOS but don't know how to acheive it in android.
any tutorial link or suggestion would be appreciable.
To open a .Ai file it needs to have PDF Embedded in it, That`s an option you get when saving a .Ai file through Adobe Illustrator (include PDF Compatibility).
If the .Ai file has that, then all what you need to do is rename it to .PDF instead of .Ai, then open it using a PDF Viewer like: http://www.mupdf.com/
Is there a free way to view postscript files on android? I cannot find a solution online but surely lots of people must want to do this.
Recently Sam Buss and I realized that you can upload the PS file to Google Drive and once its uploaded to your drive, the drive viewer will open and render the PS file on your android device.
Here is a way that just worked for me on a Samsung Galaxy 5. Something similar can probably work for others. The general idea is to download the postscript file, and use an online web service to convert it to PDF, which you can then view.
Download the postscript file.
Open your browser (I use Chrome). Navigate to www.ps2pdf.com. Navigate your way to their "Convert" page, click the "Choose file" botton. Select "Documents" when it asks for "Choose an action". Go into your "Downloads" folder on your phone. Select the downloaded postscript file. Then, back on the ps2.pdf.com page, click the Convert button.
Click the active link for the converted PDF file. This opened in Adobe Reader, which is my default PDF viewer). If I want to access the file from other programs, it is in Adobe Reader's "Recent" folder in my phone's documents.
Does anyone know an Application which opens a dcm file when it is clicked on in say a file manager? I need to be able to load a dcm from a http url into an app that displays a dicom image.
I found one app with name Droid Dicom Viewer in some posts about .DCM file.
I found this link to get details about Droid Dicom Viewer.

I am downloading PDF file in my application and want to allow user to view it. Is it possible that using webview I can display that pdf file downloaded to SD Card or local memory.
As I know there is workaround in which I can provide the link of pdf file to google url which will open pdf in webview. But it lags and is very slow.
Basic answer, no. You can't open a PDF in a webview; so you either need to fire an Intent to open the file (the file can then open in the default installed app on the device); or write your own PDF reader.
Try to use pdf.js.
See http://www.worldwidewhat.net/2011/08/render-pdf-files-with-html5/
I downloaded its source and placed it in sdcard.
Then I use a WebView to load its index.htm.
It did show pdf file on a webView in sdcard in Android 4.0 device but sometime it show white page. I need to reload it and it finally can show.
Unfortunately, I also tested on Android 2.2 and 2.3 devices. They just show white page, nothing.
I know it make use of html5 canvas technology. I have checked on loading http://html5test.com/ on WebView and have tick on canvas element but still can't show pdf. Strange behaviour. Maybe really depends on Android version.
I have an android application that needs to display the pdf files. For this I am using Adobe PDF reader intent and pass the file path to it.
It works fine when the pdf file is present on the sdcard but I am not able to view the pdf file when it is placed on web (i.e. http://www.myweb.com/pdfs/mypdf1.pdf).
Any idea how to do this?
Adobe Reader on Android does not seem to support this feature so far, as it is really simple.
Maybe you could try Adobe Air, but I am not sure the version on Android supports .pdf.
If not, I suggest you could pass the Intent to the browser, and the browser will download it, and then it can be displayed. Maybe there will be some browser that can open .pdf directly as those do on computer, but I am not aware any.
