After reading through all of the threads on the Hamlin, I think I found some of the answers to my questions. I didn't realize that "A4' is the rest of the world's equivalent to U.S. letter size of 8.5 x 11 inch. So now I see why this was a hot topic.

Zdevil: When I asked about wrapping of text lines, I meant the splitting of a long line by inserting a newline between words. Formats like TXT and DOC allow the viewing program to do this, but I don't think that this is possible with PDF. I think that the line length is set by the PDF. and that the viewing program can only mess with the size of the font to try and fit the line within the screen. But it looks like the V3 can remove the empty border on the left and right side of the page.
