I installed java downloading the relative file from the Oracle site, and following the manual guide I found on http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org . I have it and it works.
Now I'm trying using javadoc with the following command:
$ javadoc -version -private -d /tmp/Docs -sourcepath src -subpackages it
But I receive this error message:
The program 'javadoc' can be found in the following packages:
* default-jdk
* gcj-5-jdk
* openjdk-8-jdk-headless
* gcj-4.8-jdk
* gcj-4.9-jdk
* openjdk-9-jdk-headless
Try: sudo apt install <selected package>
As I already installed java, how should I proceed to get javadoc too? I'm afraid any of the packages suggested could result in some problems as I already have a jdk.
Note: I would prefer not to use openjdk.

The only way to get javadocs is to install a JRE or a JDK. If you picked one that did not have javadoc you will need to install one that does.
No way around it.
