Embedded PDF Viewer For Android
Just want to share this.
Since android doesn't support PDF viewer, anybody can easily render pdf document by using google viewer service. For example the url:
http://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.zingnightlife.com%2Fassets%2Fuploads%2Fplaces%2Fmenus%2F2011%2F01%2F13%2FThe_Manor_Menu.pdf
It looks good on mobile phone aswell.
