Solution

  • Use this method.

     public void saveFile( String fileName, PdfDocument document) {
    
         try {
    
                File mypath=new File( Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS),"filename.pdf");
                document.writeTo(new FileOutputStream(mypath));
    
                document.close();
    
            }
