View Full Version : Adobe started eBook Store Alexander Turcic 12-17-2003, 10:29 AM eBooks, digital magazines, etc... http://www.digitalmediastore.adobe.com Comes with a 10% discount coupon ADOBE10 on purchases through 12/31/03. To bad the eBooks are in PDF - my most hated eBook format! :furious2: cbarnett 12-21-2003, 06:52 PM Why, Alexander???? Alexander Turcic 12-21-2003, 07:06 PM My personal #1 reason *against* Adobe PDF is the limited support to convert files to other formats. Plus, I don't like the way page numbers are usually tied to PDF files. Someone else (http://www.yarinareth.net/caveatlector/archive/week_2002_10_20.html#e001024) wrote a very detailed explanation why I am not the only one who believes that Adobe sucks... cbarnett 12-21-2003, 07:29 PM Good article. It makes interesting reading, and explains very well the current problems with proprietary formats. Craig. |
