This may help: How to open a PDF via Intent from SD card

The basic idea is to get a pdf app to render the pdf for you, and your app just kicks off an intent to do that.

Answer 2

try this code

private void openBook() {
    File file = new File(mRealPath);
    Uri path = Uri.fromFile(file);
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
    intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
    intent.setDataAndType(path, getString(R.string.application_type));
    try {
        startActivity(intent);
    } catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
        Toast.makeText(FirstTab.this, 
                getString(R.string.no_application_found), 
                Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}

您可以通过这样的意图打开pdf文件

File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath()+"/example.pdf"); Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW); intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(file),”application/pdf”); intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY); startActivity(intent);
