I made a quick test and yes, the size at which the PDFs inside and ePUB are displayed by ADE is affected by the page size of the PDF. With a A4-size PDF, the pages are just cropped to the window size, no scaling down, no scrolling... I guess it would be the same on the Opus or other devices. This makes this "trick" currently unusable.

Perhaps one might sum it up by concluding that "PDF is not an eBook format", do you think?
Interesting experiment, though. Thanks for trying it! |

... and like PDF. Not every PDF viewer supports line-art smoothing, font hinting, transparency, bookmarks and hyperlinks, annotations, javascript...

EDIT: I just tried, and with Compact PDF the PDF files went down from 14 MB to 2.6 MB... Last edited by Jellby; 09-03-2009 at 12:44 PM. |
