pdf file viewer alternative?

algtz1 · #1 (**permalink**) 12-12-2007, 12:54 PM

Hello all,

Reading 100+page pdf file manuals can be very tedious using the built in adobe reader. Is there an alternative viewer out there? I even tried using Piscel Browser but everytime I would open up these pdf manuals, i would get a "not enough memory" error. I guess the Piscel Browser couldn't handle large pdf files. Any suggestions?

You could also use an eBook reader to convert the PDFs into a more PPC screen friendly format. I've got some books in PDF format and they were horrible to try and read. Then I saw a thread about Mobipocket ebook reader and gave it a try. Much, much easier to read.

Dude, If you don't have anything to say concerning the topic at hand, shut your pie hole. People like you just like to increase their post number without really contributing to the forum.

Willysp and Shohan, thanks for your input. I will research both of these to see which will work for me. Thanks.

Throw another vote in the hat for Mobipocket. 10x easier to read.
