This is a fork of windwardadmin/android-awt
This project provides java.awt and javax.imagio since we can't use these classes on Android. Code is took from Apache Harmony, Apache Commons Imaging and witwall/appengine-awt.
It started as a proof-of-concept to make OpenPDF work on Android. I never used it in production.
To generate PDF files locally on an Android Device, there are a lot of commercial and open source options:
- Apache PdfBox (open source), although it's a bit difficult to use
- iText 7 (commercial), it's expensive because it offers pay-per-device licensing model, the more users, the more pricier
- PSPDFKit, Foxit and other commercial libraries with Android in mind. They are expensive as iText and not so fully featured (some of them just converts html to pdf)
- UniDoc UniPDF Go library (commercial) + gomobile. I use this in production, it's the cheapest, it is full featured like iText, it offers single license per unlimited devices and technical support is great.
- (free solution) You can also generate html then convert it to pdf via webview. See this.
