I think it is best saved in .epd format but I am unsure how to create a file in that format. I have droidfish which opens a file in that format but I need to save into that format first.

Why not just use the .pgn format which is provided for you in your archives?

EPD format is more advanced than PGN format while dealing with positions. I do not want to analyze from start but from a given position.

You can certainly analyze pgn positions from anywhere in the game. If there is an advantage to using epd format, you have not made it clear.
