  • You can create pdf file by inserting content to some pdf file. I provide you the reference from where you can get the idea of how to generate pdf http://www.dynamicpdf.com/Blog/post/2012/06/15/Generating-PDFs-Dynamically-on-Android.aspx – KishuDroid Sep 18 '15 at 04:44

For devices with API level 19 or more you can use the built in PrintedPdfDocument.

This class is a helper for creating a PDF file for given print attributes. It is useful for implementing printing via the native Android graphics APIs. 

// open a new document
PrintedPdfDocument document = new PrintedPdfDocument(context,printAttributes);

// start a page
Page page = document.startPage(0);

// draw something on the page
View content = getContentView();
content.draw(page.getCanvas());

// finish the page
document.finishPage(page);
. . .
// add more pages
. . .
// write the document content
document.writeTo(getOutputStream());

//close the document
document.close();

For more advance Features use iText
