How To Display information in PDF format in Android

Question

Hi, I want to display some copy right agreement in pdf format in EditText or TextView. How to do that in Android ? Are there any APIs or any sample codes ? I will be waiting for valuable reply. Thanks,

Android does not natively support pdfs (and EditText/TextViews certainly don't!) You could check to see if Adobe Reader for Android is installed, or you can (and this is what I recommend) convert whatever agreement you're trying to show to plaintext and display it in a TextView. If you need more formatting control, you could try converting your agreement to HTML and showing it in a WebView.
