Picsel PDF Viewer missing color- new version available?

Picsel Viewer 1.1.6 Build 2506, which came installed on my Sprint Treo 700wx, cannot display most colors, as demonstrated with a PDF like this:
http://www.mta.info/nyct/maps/subwaymap.pdf

Anyone know of a newer version of Picsel or any (free) alternative that can properly display PDF's?

Thanks.

Curious...I attempted to open this in the same Picsel Viewer and got the following error message, "The document is faulty, and could not be converted."

Now I'm not pdf geek but I'm pretty sure the viewer will accurately reproduce colors...but perhaps not on this page as there is an error.

late,
Coz

I don't get an error. The PDF saves and opens just fine, and all the info is there except it is in greyscale, with only one of the lines in color - the yellow (NRQW) line.

However you are correct, in that the viewer is capable of more colors. It displays this just fine:
http://www.wmata.com/metrorail/colormap.pdf

Has anyone found a working NYC subway pdf, or does anyone have a better idea on how to keep a handy reference copy on their Treo? Google Maps for Mobile doesn't yet support subway stops, and Windows Live Search is very spotty in its coverage.

Thanks.

That's funny. I had exactly the same problem with the DC metro map, so I got rid of picsel for the bloated but more functional adobe version.
