Are There Any Free Pdf Parsing Libraries That Work In Android?

I've been looking around the interwebs for a while now for a PDF parser that actually works on android. I've tried quiet a few java libraries already but they all seem to crash whe

Solution 1:

One of the best Java library to work with PDF is iText, and I see there is its clone to work under Androind - iText PDF For Android, it unsupports some Classes/Methods (but I've found no list of such). If no other options will be suggested, then probably worth to try that one.

UPDATE: Qoppa Software is working on Androind PDF Solution, probably it won't be free, but they look for use cases, so you can contact them and ask about status and any other information. I've found that information reading related discussion here, maybe information there will be interesting for you too.

Solution 2:

Technoracle Advanced Systems is rumoured to be building something like this for displaying PDF forms on mobile. I saw a demo about 2 months ago and it appears they can parse PDF forms and render them on Android, iOS, Windows Mobile et al on the fly. Not sure if it is open source or not.
