Too bad that in the first link, the issue of a missing class has not been solved yet (PdfImageReader.java), making this API difficult to adapt.

Did you use any of these APIs?

@ZuseeWeekin not really but these were the only good API's during that time.
Because develop an PDF reader for Android is not really simple, so I suggest you read this PDF file online by Google Docs Reader
WebView webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview); webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); String pdf = "http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf"; webview.loadUrl("http://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url=" + pdf);

It's Open Source, dual-licensed: your choice -- either pick GPL v3 or a commercial license. (If you are familiar with SumatraPDF, the lightweight PDF- and XPS- viewer for Windows: internally that one is driven by MuPDF...)
