I have a PRS-505 with a 2 GB SD card and I ran into a problem the other night. I was working with the Sherlock Holmes anthology downloaded from here and I was trying to get to Large size type. Naturally it opened with Small and the transition to Medium was not a problem. At that point it was 3951 pages, but when I tried to go to Large, the reader percolated for a few minutes and then reset. When I tried it again, the same thing happened again. In thinking about what happened, I came to the conclusion that the reader has a limit on the number of pages in a volume that it can display. Is this what is happening or is there something completely different in effect? Is there a reasonable way that I can display the volume with the large type?
