you have to try this code for open a pdf file in your application..
WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.my_webview);
webView.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
webView.addView(webView.getZoomControls());
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.loadUrl("http://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url=http://myurl.com/demo.pdf");

String pdf = "http://www.xyzwebsite.com/yourfile.pdf"; //YOUR URL TO PDF
String googleDocsUrl = "http://docs.google.com/viewer?url="+ pdfurl;
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(googleDocsUrl ), "text/html");
startActivity(intent);
Add this permission to manifest file
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" >

File file = new File("/sdcard/example.pdf");
if (file.exists()) {
Uri path = Uri.fromFile(file);
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(path, "application/pdf");
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
try {
startActivity(intent);
}
catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
Toast.makeText(OpenPdf.this,
"No Application Available to View PDF",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
String pdf = "http://www.xyzwebsite.com/yourfile.pdf"; //YOUR URL TO PDF
String googleDocsUrl = "http://docs.google.com/viewer?url="+ pdfurl;
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(googleDocsUrl ), "text/html");
startActivity(intent);
}
}
}
