Pdf Viewer For Android

A Simple PDF Viewer library which renders images via android.graphics.pdf.PdfRenderer

Why is this forked

1. To remove excess permissions
2. Removed download ability calling apps should be responsible for this & any cleanup
3. Removed page numbers as did not work properly in landscape
4. Update dependencies to latest versions & code changes due to removal of kotlin-android-extensions

How to integrate into your app?

Integrating the project is simple, All you need to do is follow the below steps

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file. Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
  repositories {
    ...
    maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
  }
}

Step 2. Add the dependency

dependencies {
    implementation 'com.github.cboyce428:Pdf-Viewer:v{Tag}'
}

NOTE: Replace the tag with current release version, e.g

implementation 'com.github.cboyce428:Pdf-Viewer:v1.1.1b'

How to use the library?

Now you have integrated the library in your project but how do you use it? Well its really easy just launch the intent with in following way:

Kotlin

open_pdf.setOnClickListener {
            startActivity(

            // Opening pdf from file storage
                PdfViewerActivity.Companion.launchPdfFromPath(
                    context,
                    File(getExternalFilesDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS), "yourfile.pdf").absolutePath,
                    "PDF from File",
                    false
                )
            )
        } 

Java

        open_pdf.setOnClickListener(view -> {
            startActivity(
            
            // Opening pdf from assets folder
            
                    PdfViewerActivity.Companion.launchPdfFromPath(
                            this,
                            "asst_name.pdf",
                            "PDF from Asset,
                            true
                    )
            );
        });

That's pretty much it and you're all wrapped up.

Ui Customizations

You need to add the custom theme to styles.xml/themes.xml file and override the required attribute values. Parent theme can be either Theme.PdfView.Light or Theme.PdfView.Dark or the one with no actionbar from the application. Note: If parent is not one of the themes from this library, all of the pdfView attributes should be added to that theme.

<style name="Theme.PdfView.SelectedTheme" parent="@style/Theme.PdfView.Light">
    <item name="pdfView_backIcon">@drawable/ic_arrow_back</item>
    <item name="pdfView_actionBarTint">@color/red</item>
    <item name="pdfView_titleTextStyle">@style/pdfView_titleTextAppearance</item>
    <item name="pdfView_progressBar">@style/pdfView_progressBarStyle</item>
</style>

<style name="Theme.PdfView.SelectedTheme" parent="@style/Theme.PdfView.Dark">
    <item name="pdfView_backIcon">@drawable/ic_arrow_back</item>
    <item name="pdfView_actionBarTint">@color/black</item>
    <item name="pdfView_titleTextStyle">@style/pdfView_titleTextAppearance</item>
    <item name="pdfView_progressBar">@style/pdfView_progressBarStyle</item>
</style>
