Maybe you shouldn't use the MuPDFActivity in your project - it's just an example how Mupdf works. All what you need is the MuPDFReaderView/MuPDFCore/MuPDFPageAdapter. MuPDFReaderView extends from View/ViewGroup, so you can just add it to your layout. Try it like this (totally untested!!):

1.) XML --> The base layout for the fragment (mupdf_wrapper.xml):

2.) JAVA:

public class DummySectionFragment extends Fragment {

    public DummySectionFragment() {
    }

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        View  rootView = null;

        rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.mupdf_wrapper, container, false);
        RelativeLayout mupdfWrapper (RelativeLayout)rootView.findViewById(R.id.mupdf_wrapper);
        String path = "path/To/Your/PDF/File.pdf";
        MuPDFCore core = new MuPDFCore(getActivity(), path);
        MuPDFReaderView mDocView = new MuPDFReaderView(getActivity());
        mDocView.setAdapter(new MuPDFPageAdapter(getActivity(), getActivity(), core));
        mupdfWrapper .addView(mDocView, new LayoutParams(LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT));
        return rootView;
    }

}
