PDFLRF didn't make the text on my google ebook pdfs large enough to read.

Could you describe briefly your experience with PDFs and your Sony Reader?

All pdfs except for manybooks too small to read.

Page turns on my illiad with 35 mb pdfs 30 seconds or more. Smaller ones are viewable, but very small text.

Better, but not really easy to read. Only on a tablet pc have I had good luck reading pdfs.

Never even came close to working for me.

Those images divided into only 100 pages at a time might be viewable on the illiad.

I reformatted it with rasterfarian and now have a perfectly readable 24 MB file. So 100 MB is not an issue, however if it is a straight scan you may be able to improve size and readability.

Anbody now of some very detailed, easy instructions, listing every single step to using rasterfarian to reformat pdf files?

Could you give all he details, I am very interested in that.
