Convert PDF to APK? - General Questions and Answers

I am trying to convert a PDF to a APK. Out MDM solution can only push down APK apps to Android phones, and there is a PDF file we would like Android users to be able to reference.
Tried searching Google for "convert PDF to APK", but it hasn't been much help. Just a bunch of regular document converters.
Thanks for your help!

Its really not possible, you could make a app that can read and display the PDF or get your users to download a PDF viewer.
But there is no 'converter' the two formats have nothing to do with each other

Ya, that's basically what I need. An app that will display a PDF file.

Ok, well if you want someone to do this for you, Maybe we can talk in PM.
Or for some simple starting point have a look at this http://sourceforge.net/projects/andpdf/

Thanks for your assistance! Let me look a little bit more into creating an app.
I'll be in communication with you if I get stuck.

After rooting (for those novice like me, the links I used for rooting are at the bottom),
did not get full Google Market.
Resolved Steps:
1. Titanium - for cleaning up the files
2. AndRootFile - for assigning permissions
3. Z4Root - mainly for rooting.
4. tntllite2.0.0.zip

[Q] Galaxy tab eBook app

Hi All,
I just bought Galaxy tab and I am loving tab eBook app, not just because of animations but because of few important features like dictionary which is not available in Readers Hub Kobo.
One quick question- How can I purchase and import books in Tab ebook App. There is no download/buy button.
I have downloaded few books in kobo but I would like to open them in Tab's eBook app. Please help how can I do that.
You can't, those are 2 differents apps. And could you be so kind to post the apk of the ebook reader? I lost mine while upgrading my firmare. And I really loved the old book theme
Should be in /system/app/Ebooks.apk
Thanks again, kind sir

Just use Calibre for your ebook needs... It can't get them for you, but it can organize it for you and convert from almost any format to almost any format.... Also it can download cover and meta data...
You just have to download a book, import it, ( edit meta data), convert it, send it to the device, and read.

Sorry, Could you guide me bit more. When I click download Epub from website, i got URLLink.acsm file which I can open in Adobe digital edition. I am not able to convert in to tab supported epub using Calibre.
If I remember it well (I currently haven't the ebook reader installed - looking for a deodexed version) you can import ebooks very easy by creating a folder on your sdcard called Digital Editions and place your epub books in there. Maybe you have to reboot before they show up.
(Could be that you first have to sign up for the online store)
Guys could you please just guide me how can i download epub format book.

Just download the acsm file, open it with Adobe digital editions. Go to My Documents/My Digital Editions and there you have your epub files.
(Hope you didn't found that out yourself while I'm writing this)

I always remove the drm protection from the eBooks I buy. Just to prevent this kind of problems. I use this method: http://www.dvdvideosoftware.org/guide/remove-drm-from-adobe-epub.html
Maybe there are some better ways nowadays. Just search for it.
BTW isn't it possible to set your adobe id in the eBook app?

I can not see /system folder. I am using inbuilt files application.
Which format are ebooks that have animation when flipping pages?
Sent from my GT-P1000M using XDA App
To get it back you have to change the product code back to something like CPW. This worked for me.
The code was something like *#232*IMEI#. Check the forum if thats not the one.
After that factory reset (you will loose everything!), youll be good to go

The flipping pages animation isn't part of the ebook format (although most ebooks are ePub format) that's just something the ebook reader does or doesn't do. Laputa does it but when you flip backwards it's the same animation. The Nook software is the best for the US for accurate animation.

You'll need to use something like ASTRO File Manager

Soonr Scribble is out

Don't know about you guys and gals, but seeing the demonstration of Soonr Scribble on the Note kind of sealed my decision to get the phone. Well, it finally came out recently, and is available on the market for free: https://market.android.com/details?...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zb29ucnNjcmliYmxlIl0.
This is the video I saw long before the phone came out:
And here's a newer video:
Yes its available free for now and is working well.
It's a promising app for business users!!
Hello all,
Can someone provide the apk please ?
Thanks.
This app is incompatible with all of your devices.

I'm finding it very laggy, which is quite disappointing
This is the most important productivity apps for galaxy note! But I don't understand why all of document in whatever format always be transformed into pdf files after being scribbled?
This is makes soonr scribble almost useless. Because when we are editing docx files, we want the scribbled thing being transformed into image just inside the docx file, and not the whole file being transformed into pdf file!
I want to compare it with polaris office for htc flyer and htc jetstream. When I am scribbling in the docx files with that apps, all of my scribbled automatically transformed into image within docx files.
I hope soonr understand these problems and give the same format as the source file for the scribbled file.
Thank you very much.

[APP][TOOL] Steg. Simple app to send unsupported files through WhatsApp

Steg is a simple handy app that allows you to send files through WhatsApp, popular messaging platform. It allows you to seamlessly send files relevant to your chat that's unsupported by WhatsApp without the hassle of you going out of your way and using e-mail or Drive, etc. For example another app you wish to show a friend or a zip file. It can also be used as a way to get around WhatsApp's image compression when it distorts your photos. Or to send an avi video. Whatever the file type, be it binary or text. Just make sure both parties have Steg installed. And whatever you want to share via WhatsApp, share with Steg instead. This gives you an Encode Activity that's already autofilled the input. Just click Encode and Share Encoded File and then use WhatsApp to share. Really simple.
On the other device the person receives what you sent and all he has to do is click on it from WhatsApp, select Steg to open it, click on Decode file and then Open Decoded File. That's it. Really nothing to it.

Bump.
Nice app! Thank you!
Looks interesting.
Excellent app
Many thanks. Excellent app. It would improve the interface a bit and possibly in some way to recognize (alert) that the pdf in question was created with Steg.
Got what i need. Thanks buddy great app
Great idea, thank you!
Works. Superb work, thank u
It does what it says. This is the most useful app for me. Thanks buddy!
App icon blends into black wallpaper or when we use a black substratum theme. Make it transparent.
Thanks for your great work!
Seems promising, but I'd love to see the source first please. :angel:
Thank you LordFME. This is a super app, adding a dimension to WhatsApp that many, including myself, have been longing for for quite sometime now. This app has impressed me so much that I've written an article on it on my personal blog. Thank you.
