How to open MS Office files on Android

Possible duplicate:
Android Microsoft Office Library (.doc, .docx, .xls, .ppt, etc.)

I was looking for an Android API to open and view .doc , .ppt , .docx or .pptx .

I am sure that it should be like there are applications that can open this file format. I found apache POI, but it uses java awt, which is not part of android.

Even an API to convert this file format to .pdf will be useful.

Android does not have a standard API for opening office files. The applications you found use the internal API to read files. They either do this on the device or upload the file to the server, which is responsible for parsing the file and converting it to a format that is easier to read from the Android client.

This can only be done if your phone has an application such as Quickoffice, and in these cases you will open it in this application through your application.
