Does Sony Ebook Library show reflowed PDF?

jimmyzou · 08-14-2008, 03:37 PM

Since my PRS500 was broken by my lovely wife, I have been hesitating of buying a PRS505 due to the tiny product improvement of the successor, and from time to time I came here to see what's going on with EINK readers.

Today I was attracted by PRS505's new firmware feature: " reflow PDF" function. It's truly impressing.

Can anyone tell that if I can see the reflowed result of a PDF book? as the PDF can be previewed in ebook library before I load it into reader when I was using PRS500.

Yes. See Sony's Windows ebook Reader.

I loaded a PDF into "ebook library" which is ebook reader from sony, but I can not see any "reflow" and option to do that?

The "S" size shows the original full-page view, "M" and "L" are both reflowed versions with different font sizes.

If this isn't happening, perhaps you have an old version - or perhaps Adobe Digital Editions isn't installed on your PC.

Wow, I tried, it did the job nicely and decently, which never happen before when I used PRS500's version.
I think I'm gonna buy one 505
