If I finagle them to zoom into what looks like full screen and go to change the page, my finger moves the page and it's all screwed up. I'd really like to have them open just like a normal book - where I can tap left or right to page change.
A previous post mentioned that where I store them on the card matters... in books folder makes them like books, in documents folder makes them open in QuickOffice. Haven't tried it yet, but wondering if any of you out there have had success opening non protected PDF's int he book viewer.
Sorry.. I'm also have a Bi^&*tch of a time getting the PDF's to the front screen. They show up in the library, but I can't managed to get them to the front splash screen.
Thanks for the help

You have the same questions that I do. I have also observed that only my DRM'ed PDF's open in the book viewer and non-DRM'ed books open in QuickOffice. It doesn't matter whether I put them in the books or document folder (that only affects what the icon image looks like but not what viewer opens it).
Also, you can only put BN store-content on the home screen. That's why you are having such a difficult time. Your side-loaded files stay in your library only. There are many people who are unhappy about that.
