Using Android default libraries like AppCompat, you can convert all the PDF pages into images. This way is very fast and optimized. The below code is for getting separate images of a PDF page. It is very fast and quick.

I have implemented like below:

ParcelFileDescriptor fileDescriptor = ParcelFileDescriptor.open(new File("pdfFilePath.pdf"), MODE_READ_ONLY);
    PdfRenderer renderer = new PdfRenderer(fileDescriptor);
    final int pageCount = renderer.getPageCount();
    for (int i = 0; i < pageCount; i++) {
        PdfRenderer.Page page = renderer.openPage(i);
        Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(page.getWidth(), page.getHeight(),Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bitmap);
        canvas.drawColor(Color.WHITE);
        canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0, null);
        page.render(bitmap, null, null, PdfRenderer.Page.RENDER_MODE_FOR_DISPLAY);
        page.close();

        if (bitmap == null)
            return null;

        if (bitmapIsBlankOrWhite(bitmap))
            return null;

        String root = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString();
        File file = new File(root + filename + ".png");

        if (file.exists()) file.delete();
        try {
            FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
            bitmap.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, out);
            Log.v("Saved Image - ", file.getAbsolutePath());
            out.flush();
            out.close();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

=======================================================

private static boolean bitmapIsBlankOrWhite(Bitmap bitmap) {
    if (bitmap == null)
        return true;

    int w = bitmap.getWidth();
    int h = bitmap.getHeight();
    for (int i =  0; i < w; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < h; j++) {
            int pixel =  bitmap.getPixel(i, j);
            if (pixel != Color.WHITE) {
                return false;
            }
        }
    }
    return true;
}

I have already posted it in another question :P
