Very good!

Remarkable! Thanks! The new reflow works very well. A bit awkward in spots, as the reflow will concatenate a word or two here or there, but all in all very readable. My one request would be to have some way to navigate up/down on a page when in reflow mode. Something as simple as a scrollbar would be adequate.

hello kwoodham,
you can use the up/down key on your device to navigate a page.

Reflow feature is a winner.

Even best Adobe developers could not do it. Moreover they could not do it even in full Adobe Acrobat as adding reflow tags into exisitng PDF does not help much.


Still the reader itself lacks several features (ordered by importance):
- Continoius page display
- More zoom steps for finer text size control
- Reflow Feature that also detects paragraphs or at very least headings in the text (headings typically have larger font).
- Opera-like Zoom-in/Zoom-out Zone at the right edge
- There seems to be some instability in the software.

I am buying this when at least first two are implemented.
