The zoom feature in PDF works just like the ePub version. It advances forward until you reach the end and then it starts all over.

If you want to jump to a specific zoom value, you still can. Just hit the menu button, then select "Settings" which will allow you to see the zoom range and where you currently are. You then can jump to a specific zoom.

With the PDF you have "Reflow off/on", Full screen and "Fit Width" along with the stepped zoom options.

Just having the "Reflow text" enhancement blows out the 4 and 9 segment viewing mode.

"Reflow on" and zoom 200% is the default setting on opening a PDF file. The menu "Settings" - "Zoom Rate" just includes 100% > 400% in 50% increments. or you can increment forward in 50% steps until you reach 400% and then restart at 100%.

Reflow off + "Fit Width" is the starting point when Reflow off is selected. It then adds "Fit-Width" and "Full-screen" to the % list.

"Reflow on"does not work with any PDF doc that has it's pages treated as a picture and not embedded text. These type of PDF's tend to be the minority unless you are the one generating them.

That's the way it works on the JB and I assume that is the way it works with the new JBL FW.
