cordova - Embed Adobe Reader in custom Android (or PhoneGap) Application -


we have need embed pdf reader in 1 of our custom built android (or phonegap plugins) tablet application local directory (sdcard). embed meaning not display pdf document inside application instead have tap following api functionalities programmatically:

1) retrieve pdf document meta data i.e. page size, author, date created 2) tap next , previous page click , implement our custom handler code 3) zoom, pinch, page swipe etc.

1) can or give direction achieve above use cases using adobe acrobat reader (adobe reader mobile 9 sdk)?

2) whether adobe reader mobile 9 sdk exposes api program against? faq section doesn’t talk api above mentioned use case

we have spent time in googling & stackoverflow mining find possibilities no luck. our conclusion after analysis have go open source or commercial embeddable pdf sdk’s i.e.

• mozilla’s pdf.js • android pdf viewer library • foxit pdf viewer library • radaee.pdf, embeddable mobile pdf sdk • adobe reader mobile sdk

we have tried above mentioned libraries , below our experience

mozilla’s pdf.js – javascript solution , exposes api of our need fails render pdf cases whenever special embedded font missing , in such cases application crashes. other single issue promising , superb. still in beta stage.

android pdf viewer library – have built custom intent (phonegap android plugins) slow , fails in many cases. felt pdf.js better android pdf viewer library

radaee.pdf – exploring. knowledge base poor , not enough samples move forward

foxit pdf viewer library – unable download sdk url sent in email after registering foxit. though link says pdf sdk downloads pdf reader. sent email sales team , awaiting response.

the adobe reader mobile sdk – sdk not available download, 1 need through re-sellers. sent request them , awaiting callback

o datalogics o bsquare o bluefire

appreciate response & support

please try procore mobile sdk (http://www.mobilepdfsdk.com). can embed pdf reader in 5 lines.
