I want to render a local stored pdf file in my android application so I can access the view.
I want to zoom the pdf and take a "screenshot" of the viewed region to add arrows and notes and save this information into a jpeg.
For me it's useless to open the pdf via intent only (with adobe pdf or similar), because I have no chance to take a shot of the viewed region in my activity.
Is there any way to include a pdf viewer or convert a pdf file into images so I can manipulate the resulted bitmaps?
I've tried iText - this won't work because of missing bouncycastle dependencies (?).
Try PDFViewerSDK .Very powerful and fast PDF viewer.
Try VuDroid https://code.google.com/p/vudroid/ or Joan Zapata's Android PdfView library https://github.com/JoanZapata/android-pdfview

I have pdf file download in my device on known location. I want to display it within my application. I tried several pdf viewer libraries like:
https://github.com/JoanZapata/android-pdfview <--- This is deprecated.
https://github.com/jblough/Android-Pdf-Viewer-Library <--- Does not display pdf properly. I mean it has several issues while loading pdf.
https://github.com/barteksc/AndroidPdfViewer <--- So far best I could find over the internet.
But none of the above work on hyperlinks to navigate to certain header within the file.
I know i can display pdf file in Google drive viewer, but I don't want that.
So anyone can suggest me relevant pdf viewer library in android which I can plug in my project?
Use google doc viewer to view pdf without any external library.
String pdf = "http://www.pdf995.com/samples/pdf.pdf";
webview.loadUrl("http://drive.google.com/viewerng/viewer?embedded=true&url=" + pdf);
In my app I am using the library https://github.com/barteksc/AndroidPdfViewer for reading a pdf file. Now I want to select words from the pdf file, how will I do it?
What the library you're using actually does is to basically convert an PDF file into a Bitmap image so that it can be viewed and zoomed etc. Therefore you cannot select text or words from the PDF file, or the resulting Bitmap image for that matter.
I am developing an android application.
My Aim:
The user can view the PDF files and they can add their signatures.
What I did:
I have used the MUPDF library to show the PDF files to the users.
Now the user can directly add their signatures over the PDF.
What I want:
But I want to add the signature images over the PDF and want to save it.
Is it possible add the image over the PDF and save it by using MUPDF?
Can anybody give me the idea to do this?
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.
I have make an application in which I want to display pdf of images which is captured by camera.
I am able to capture the image and store it in pdf file. But when I open the pdf to display images,it gives me an error . To display an pdf file I have used the iText.jar 5.0.6.
iText is not a PDF viewer. You should have a look at IcePDF instead, although I'm not sure it can be used on Android platforms.
