Hi,

I just bought a new PB 360. Everything works fine, except the following.

There is a problem selecting words when I activate the dictionary for PDF files:

When I reading a PDF file, I use the pop-up menu to get into the dictionary mode.

Then, I use the arrow keys, as pictured, to navigate to the word of interest. Almost all the time, I manage to get only several key clicks until the I get stuck at a certain word, such as the word 'glanced' above. It does not navigate any further. And I had to exit the dictionary mode.

I also find out that I can navigate around the 'bad' words.

I have no such problem with TXT, or FB2 files.

I using 'reflow' mode for reading PDF files. Also, my software version is E101.15.1 as it came from the store.

Should I upgrade my software? Should I upgrade the Adobe reader?

Thank you,

Andrei

PS. I tried it with a different dictionary (Webster 1913). Same problem.
