Default Fit Width Fails on Some Files

http://mises.org/books/lastknight.pdf

The above file is typical of several that don't fully expand to fill the screen width on the eSlick in either portrait or landscape modes. Instead, there appear small circles quadrasected by horizontal and vertical lines to both the right and the left of the text. These may be limiting the text expansion. However, these circles do not appear in either Foxit Reader 3 or Adobe Reader 8 in Windows XP for the same files.

If anyone has the time to try to verify this, look in the middle of the book in the normal text region, away from table of contents, etc.

This is a problem for those of us who need the maximum expansion possible to allow our vision to make use of a 6 inch screen.

Thanks, Don

These lines are used by publisher to prepare pdf. When you use the crop feature of adobe acrobat (not acrobat reader), you will see the crop box falling on these lines, they are supposed to be cropped.

If you don't have acrobat, you can check foxit pdf editor.
Use the last menu item in "document" menu (I don't the English name of that item), then chose the toolbar button "adjust content width", drag the crop box to remove the edges -- but I don't know how to apply this to all the pages in whole document...

HI Don,
Yes, the lines are really there. So eSlick don't fully expand to fill the screen width on the eSlick.
