There are some topics about this question but they are old and I can't believe there isn't a solution for this.
I have made an HTML file and placed it in the Download directory from Android.
When I try to open the file in Chrome, Firefox or Opera I get an error: file:///storage/emulated/0/Download/mysite.html
We are living in 2021 and I can't believe this isn't possible.
Maybe Tasker can help?
3 Options that can work, depending of the content of your file:
You can use a local web server in your Android phone itself. There are many server apps out there in the Play Store, one such app is Simple HTTP Server.
You can put your documents into the folder Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download/ in the internal storage. It's absolute path is /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download/ or /sdcard/Android/data/com.android.chrome/files/Download/. This is the location where Chrome stores any downloaded files and therefore, this is the only location where Chrome can access the files. But remember, uninstalling Chrome will delete this directory.
Also you can download a HTML Viewer to open your file.

Or if you have access to internet, just upload it to Google Drive and view it online.
Just you need a Browser in this case.
The content of the .pdf can be read with read with the iText library for Android http://itextpdf.com/product/itextg But If you want see the content you need a pdf viewer app or integrate one in your app

please if someone can guide me in the right direction and which library to get.......
used itext but its not working.......application crashing on
Document document = new Document();
any help would be appreciated.....thank you
you can read pdf files using WebView like
mWebView.loadUrl("https://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url="+ webUrl);
You must use an implicit intent, put the PDF file path in an URL and launch it with the intent with ACTION_VIEW, it will launch with the default PDF application.

How to create pdf files on android
I have a program that asks the user for information, then I need to put this information on a document/contract. I think I would like to create a pdf file with that information using itext (other alternate ways would also be appreciated). Although, I found that the itext version is not built (at least the free version) for android. My only solution is to create a server, send this information to a server that creates the pdf and then sends the pdf back to my phone. I have no idea how to do this. Or if anyone knows how to make an itext version for android.
Welcome to stackoverflow. Search your problem well before reaching out.
If you want to do this on the server you can create a simple PHP script that generates the PDF for you.
Just Google for PHP generate PDF and it will give you a lot of links.
If you want to do the pdf generation on the device you can leverage a java library that does it for you. try this stackoverflow link create pdf files on Android
