PDFs Adobe reader crashes. need pdf viewer for wm5...

as per the subject, what are people using to view pdfs?

I too am keen to know what is best for viewing PDFs

I was using the official Adobe Acrobat reader 1.0 on a WM5 iPAQ. I didn't have any crashes.
Its the same software as the phone PPC's so this should work.

I use the ClearVue PDF viewer that came with my MDA Vario. Works nicely.

ebook reader

Hey I am looking for a good ebook reader. Basically I have tons of ebooks in txt format (from projekt gutenberg) and some pdf ones. Right now I am using a purchased version of Repligo to convert it and view it on my pda, the viewer is really really nice... now I want to switch to an macbook and wanted to ask the comunity if there's a better way like an comfortable txt viewer? I'm aware of XPDF for PDF files which is nice but kind of not that comfortable to read books
THX in advance

uBook was a very good I used to use, but I just convert the txt or html files into Microsoft LIT format now and use their reader.
Not sure if uBook is still free though.

i'm using isilo & isiloX for converting to pdb/prc i like it. i was risen on mpx2oo,& it was 1st ebook reader i found. other readers i know:haali,ubook as alanjc,mobipocket.

i have a freeware frontend gui which use ms lit encoder to make just about any format into lit books which can be used in ms ebook reader on pocketpc's
can post then name when i get hold of it

Haali Reader is great
Thx for the hints. The Haali Reader link
is really great

best (free) pdf viewer?

hi there, what is the best (free) pdf viewer on sp5m/wm6 smartphone?
thanks
highmighty

Adobe Reader of course!!!!

agree!

Well i used Adobe LE 2.0 on my sp5m but found it too heavy and difficult to use i believe for viewing text with pictures Adobe is best however for serious text readin i have found Old orneta reader the best.

Of course the Foxit Reader with mini-map feature . Adobe Reader LE is slower.

thanks all!

go for foxit reader

Glad I found this thread. I can safely say that PocketXpdf is the best one, even though its quite aged. As Foxit costs $, and Adobe doesn't have a 'true' fullscreen mode.

MobileXpdf better than PocketXpdf
Hey that PocketXpdf is getting old now.
Try MobileXpdf instead, supports WM6.x as well!

ebook reader

Hi all.
Ive been looking around, but I cant seem to find any good ebookreader to my vox.
The integrated adobe reader - lite, sucs for reading pdf files, as it cant rearrange the text, and word isnt any real alternative.
Do you know any god ones, and what formats does it take, freeware etc?
Greetings.

Haven't really tried any of these, but these 2 came with the ROM I use:
Microsoft LIT Reader
CHM ebook Reader 2.5

For PDF files no Windows Smartphone reader is perfect, but this included in Documents To Go is the best among them. It is the only one that word wraps the PDF text, so you can read the book without scrolling around.
Unfortunately, there is no PDF reader that can reflow your document like Adobe Acrobat Reader for Pocket PC, but the Word Wrap mode of Documents To Go PDF Reader is pretty close.

For non-technical literature i advised AlReader 2 (freeware)
This programm works with TXT, HTML, RTF, DOC, FB2, PDB/PRC (PalmDOC, zTXT mode 1), TCR
PDF is unsupported

And what about MobiPocketReader ?

AlReader 2.
I simply cant find it in an english version. You have one?
Is moby pocket reader good?
Thanks for your replys.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You have to try yourself.
It's free, with PC/PPC/SP client with few format convertion.

Yes, Alreader2 is the best reader ever, with the russian menus even. ;-)
With a reader like this for the iPhone, maybe I let my Vox at home.

A new solution for ebooks on smartphone....giv it a try!
hi there....i suffered from this kind of problem....i had over 3000 ebooks in .lit format....my idea is this. use isilo v4.36 for smartphone....if u are really interested i'll put it up here.....
there is a freeware called amberlit .lit converter available. my advice is, do a batch conversion of .lit files, then use isilo on ur mobile. mine too is a htc s710....my novels are great/ pm me....i hav the full working version.
try and njoy!

Adobe Reader

Hello!
I'm trying to get the Adobe Reader on my F1 (Spanish rom 3.003c.00.ES) and I tried to install the official release (v2.0) that can be found at adobe's page, but it doesn't work.
Any ideas?
Thank you very much!

Adobe Reader doesn't work on S200
To read PDF-files you can use some other software like PocketXpdf (free, can be found on SourceForge) or Foxit Reader Mobile
PS: on my S200 PocketXpdf can't read big (more than 1mb) pdf-files, but Foxit can.

I finally managed to install the Adobe Acrobat 2.5 LE on my F1, but I'll try the ones you said.
Thanks!
