"No use of that libraries" is not informative. Let someone advise you one more, and you may also say "no use", so how would like to help you?

OK. You say you don't want to use external libraries? Well then, have fun writing your own library to parse and render a PDF file. You might want to look at the source for SumatraPDF[^] to get an idea of the amount of work you're in for.

Personally, I wouldn't waste 6 months of my life writing a PDF library when there are a ton of them that already exist and do that job for me.

Hello,

You can use WebView control in Android.
If you declare it in your Activity you can use Google Docs helper inside it.

YourWebViewControl.loadUrl("https://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url=" + yourUrl);

Just simply add this line before url address:

"https://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url="

It can also open word files, excel, etc.

Hope it will help. Let me know.
