PDF reader API for Android

Hi, I'm an Android developer beginner. I need my App to view pdf files without calling an external viewer. I found several pdf vierver source code solutions, but none of them is "Adobe Official". Is there any official Android pdf viewing API? How about iOS? Thanks.

Moving this discussion to the Reader for Android forum.

Reader API for Android

Does Reader API (http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/digitalpublishingsuite/ReadingSDK-2.27/docs/index.html) work in Android? If yes, since which version.
Does it work in R25 already?
Especially we wanted to use the feature to access the entitlement status within a web view.
Thank you,
Richard

The Reading API is iOS only at this stage.

JavaScript in Adobe Reader app for Android

How long to get the Adobe Reader app for Android will support JavaScript code? In addition to the password, I need to put the expiration day on my PDFs to close the backdoor.
Thanks

Hi,
Many thanks for getting back to me. A reset all fields would certainly
save a great deal of time on forms that are used over and over!
Something else that I've noticed is the fact that when you flick through
the pages of .pdf documents, there are sometimes white blank pages. You
need to scroll back and forth to get them all to load and sometimes even
after they have loaded, when you scroll back and forth again other pages
are blank.
I am using the latest Samsung Note Pro tablet with 2 x quad core
processors so I can't blame outdated technology.
Do you have any ideas as to how to solve this problem?
Many thanks again for your help.
Regards
Paul

Acrobat Reader DC for Android &Javascripts in form cells

Acrobat Reader DC for Android is not taking in consideration most of the Javascripts in form cells ( scripts were all produced in Acrobat XI) Worked fine in Reader 11.7.2 pre-DC for Android... Do you have any suggestions? he issue seems to be fairly general, since only my most simple script for adding times together is working, none of the others, no matter what they do...
Sample already provided in one of my prev. posts, although the issue was different.
Regards: Robert Bartok

Hi Mevish,
I had this issue earlier also with Acrobat Reader 11.7.2 on Lollipop 5.02
but after a system component update the issue "sorted itself out"... right
now I tried to run this on a Galaxy s6 Android 5.02, Acrobat DC fails, and
at the same time, on the same phone Acrobat 11.7.2 (pre DC) succeeds. This
is the case also with my other forms.
Thanks for getting back to me. I'll try to get my hands on a 5.1 v.
Android.

Hi , Is there a PDF Reader provided for QNX RTOS.

Hi ,
Is there a PDF Acrobat Reader avilable for QNX RTOS .

Adobe does not provide custom software.
Any third-party developer with sufficient skill can develop their own PDF reading application in compliance with the ISO PDF standard, but Adobe will not provide any support.

Is there an Adobe digital reader edition for Android?

Help
Does anyone know if there is an Adobe digital edition reader for Android?

You're not the first person to mix up Adobe Reader and Adobe Digital Editions, and you won't be the last. I'd love to know why it happens though. Here is the Adobe Digital Editions forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_digital_editions

Pdf reader requirements for forms designed in Livecycle

HI guys,
I have designed a few dynamic pdf forms that was developed using Livecycle Designer ES. These forms are online fillable forms and I will be uploading these on my site so my users can open these forms in their browsers, complete the form online and print it out for their personal use. These forms are more like online tools for the users. For this, I also have to provide a Troubleshoot guide to my users so they can refer to this if they are unable to open the forms or having trouble viewing the forms properly. So right now I am working on creating this Troubleshoot documentation and I dont want to give the wrong info to my users so I have some clarifications and some doubts and wondering if you guys can help me out..
1) From what I understand, I think the users need to have atleast a v.8.0 of Acrobat Reader in order to fill these dynamic forms that was designed in livecycle designer ES. This is right? I think so based on my memory since I believe I read this somewhere. Would you be able to clarify this? Have I got the right version?
2) Also, further to this I understand that the users need to have an Acrobat reader browser plug-in in order to open the pdfs in their browsers. So, I will be adding a list of various pdf plug-in download links for various browsers.
3) I was wondering, what happens if the user doesnt have acrobat reader installed in their computer? What are the common other pdf readers that various users use? I know there are tons out there but I am trying to understand the common ones that majority of the people use other than Acrobat Reader. I mean users having mac or other OS. Will these forms also work in other pdf readers? Is there are a list of various pdf readers & the versions requirements in order for these livecycle forms to work?
4) Other than the above points, do you think if I need to mention anything else in the troubleshoot documentation? Any points I may have missed?
I am sorry..this is the first time I am uploading these online forms and I am trying to understand the requirements so I may be able to assist my users if they do experience any problems. So any help is very much appreciated!
Thank you..

Some users are having problems viewing my forms I created using livecycle:
1) I have a created a few dynamic forms designed using livecycle designer ES..In order for my users to open these forms, they need to have atleast Adobe acrobat / reader version 8.1 or higher to view these dynamic files. However, quite a few of my users are saying that they are still unable to open these forms directly from their browser although they have downloaded the latest Acrobat X version and the browser plug-ins in their computer. It happens to both windows and mac computers. But they are able to download these files and open it directly from their adobe reader though. It happens with all browsers for them...some of them have even called up mac support as well as adobe support and they were advised that it could be a problem with my forms that I find hard to believe since it opens in my computer and opens for a lot of other users. Its only a few users still having this difficulties and I can't understand why! They have also tried enabling "Adobe Reader" as a default problem to open pdf files by opening the adobe reader. They also have tried uninstalling and re-installing the readers and still the same problem. These LC files just dont open inside their browser for them.
2) Also, I recently uploaded a dynamic file in acrobat file sharing. I noticed that when I click on this file sharing link, it also shows the message that I dont have the latest reader installed (something similar to what my users say about my forms), Why am I getting the below message when I have the latest adobe installed? I am able to open other dynamic xml forms in my browsers..why does this happen? I wonder if other user's problem who open my forms from my site is similar to this problem I have with acrobat file sharing...not sure... (example url: https://acrobat.com/#d=fs-E6Bqml8r0FWI8aMu09g )
To view the full contents of this document, you need a later version of the PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from etc...etc...etc..
What can be the problem when the adobe version is already updated and also the plug-ins are updated too?? I have read a lot of links in adobe site itself which suggest various methods to test out the forms, browsers, plug-ins, etc..and I also understand that it doesnt work for iOS & Android devices, but this problem still happens to some users even after trying out these troubleshoots. Can someone plz explain if there are other limitations or solution for these users?

In Acrobat Reader DC for Android, how do I prevent Verizon Cloud from launching when clicking the floating action button to retrieve files?

I have a Verizon-branded Samsung Galaxy S5, which means a lot of Verizon apps were added from the factory install.
Recently I upgraded Adobe Acrobat Reader to its most recent version.
When I clicked on the floating action button to open a PDF, it launched Verizon Cloud instead of showing my file directory.
Unless I disabled Verizon Cloud altogether, every time I did this, I would get the Verizon Cloud app instead of a file listing.
Reader DC is the only app that does such a thing. Is this a defect?

Thanks for the information.
To remove the Verizon cloud storage from Adobe Acrobat DC application, you can 'Turn off' the Verizon cloud application from 'Settings'-->'Application Manager'-->'All applications'. After doing this, every time you tap on the Floating Action button, you will be presented the list of all your pdf files on your device.
If you would like to view both the Verizon cloud based files as well as files from your internal memory/SD card, I would request you to download some file manager application from the Google Play Store such as And Explorer, ES File Explorer etc. After doing this, whenever you will tap on the floating action button, you will be provided an option to open the files either from the Verizon cloud or the files on your device.
Hope this helps. Please let us know if you observe any more issues.
Thanks.

I asked a friend and check it on mac and Linux.
Is that a bug or something?

The latest stable and latest development versions of the built-in PDF viewer are available as an extension and these version can possibly perform better than the version shipped with the current Firefox release.

Feature Requests - Adobe Reader for Android

Adobe Reader for Android is a good start, it renders well (and renders 2 pages at a time), and the UI is nice, but there are some missing features.
Please can we have the following features added in the next update;
# Bookmark support, including the ability to create and modify bookmarks.
# A method of jumping to a specific page in the document
# Ability to share the file by email
# Ability to copy text
# A method of searching text in the document
Thanks for the app, it looks promising, but needs the above features added to be a better app than Repligo Reader.

My company is anxiously looking to find out if you will be supporti
ng XFDF, FDF features so we may display and submit forms on Android Tablets!
The marriage of Adobe Forms, the Web and Tablets blows the doors open to numerous new applications and markets and squarely puts Adobe as the focal point of such solutions.
Our software has been PC-based and the 75% of our solution is usable for the tablet market. The other 25% of our functionality relies on displaying and completing Adobe forms over the web. Our customers are BEGGING for it.
So can you PLEASE PROOVIDE INSIGHT AS TO IF/WHEN you would be including full form functionality in the READER product for Android?
Many of us ANXIOUSLY await your resonse! Thanks.

Best PDF reader for iPad2?

Is there a PDF "reader" app for the iPad which will allow you to 1. search for a specific word (or words) and 2. allow you to copy text from a PDF?

I would recommend ReaddleDocs for iPad, works great on my iPad, support full txt search, and easy navigation across pages, and lightning quick.

But if for free, iBook is cool too!
