All this has been out there in the ereader community; no secret.
Portable Document Files are fixed to a size on their first build; and that's usually to the size and format convenient to the original author. Unless the PDF file was set-out for Kobe size and format then the magnify and pan is the best you can hope for. You could always redo the layout yourself if you wish. Plenty of programmes out there to do this.
Hope this helps

The sales blurb claims it as a format supported by Kobo (not just the glo - the touch as well). The trouble is, it's so bad it is almost misleading to have it on the list. No excuses, it can be done much better, plenty of other ereaders do it. Kobo have dropped the ball on pdf reading.
