If you have already used iText in normal Java, I don’t think you will face any difficulty using it in Android. Add the iText jar in the build path.

Following code adds a paragraph to the pdf document.

Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4,0,0,10,10);
        PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("Image.pdf"));
        Paragraph p =new Paragraph("This is simple text",new Font(Font.FontFamily.ZAPFDINGBATS,20));
        document.open();
        document.add(p);
        document.close();
