Remeber read location for reflowed pdf

[dracodoc]

According to some users, eslick can only remember the page number after user quit the pdf, but page number is not enough for reflowed pdf, because there could be several page turns for 1 page in pdf.
So I wish eslick could remember the exact location for reflowed pdf.

eSlick can remember your reading settings for 10 documents in history, including page number (read location), Reflow viewing mode, zoom to, Lanscape.

I haven't receive my eslick so I cannot verify this: according to other users, reflowed pdf can have 8 pages in one original one page, like A1-A8, then eslick only remember the original page, not the specific reflowed page.

I just tried this on a few PDF documents and in all cases reopening a reflowed document took me back to the Top of the page or skipped me foreward to the top of the next page. Personally I don't mind re reading a small bit but I could imagine this to be an erritation for people reading large page PDFs.

Oh, yeah, Read Location don't be remembered.
I will let our team know this. Thanks.

This is one of the main issues of this device - no real bookmark function. The "continue reading" doesn't always work well. In the cases when the device somehow froze, which happens, you'll need to reset it, then all the historic reading information will be lost. So you'd better remember the page number by heart, just in case!
Also, the "continue reading" only bring you back to the top of the pdf page you last read, by memerizing the page number(i guess). But since when you reflow or even turn on landscape view, each of the pdf pages are split into multiple screens. So chances are you'll have to scroll down another 6 screens to get back to the part you last read, if it was somewhere in the middle or at the bottom of the page.
Another bummer related to this is that when you try to turn back to the previous page, in landscape or reflowing mode and one pdf page seperated in multiple screens, you'd always be brought back to the first line of the original pdf page, not the part you just read.

It's a main issue, but not a important issue; I'm sure it'll solved in next future firmware update

My reader remembers the document I read for days, but not usually the last document I read. I am considering looking at the pdf editing software to insert bookmarks and see if that helps get down to reading faster when I have one of the few breaks in my day. Meanwhile, I'll try the reset button mentioned above.

With the Pro Pack, you can create your own bookmarks. And if you bought eSlick, you get Pro Pack for free.

I know there's pdf editor in the pack. But I don't think anyone would want some pre-set bookmark as apposed to adding some real bookmark during reading, so that next time one can go exactly back to where he/she left earlier.
This is a very standard option on ereader devices. Sony PRE, Illiad, Hanlin V3 all have it.

I definataly do not think this is a hard-to-solve problem. But first you guys from FOXIT should take it seriously and be sure to include this function in future upgrade. You'd know this is very irritating, if you really do some reading yourself.
