Question. For my work I read techical articles from our community web database (in PDF) and also have many scanned PDF books. Nook Color seemed as a good solution, so I got one a couple of days ago. Several PDF books that I side-loaded to the "Books" folder opened well.

But I do have problems reading the PDF articles. After the downloading it gave me a choice of Quickoffice or Reader to open the file. The Reader opened it fine, but it does not have a Landscape and a Zoom options so reading is difficult. On the other hand, the Quickoffice does have those options, but the text became gibberish (every other letter replaced by a weird character). Moreover, when I later tried to open one of the downloaded articles from "My Downloads" it didn't give me any choice and openned them with Quickoffice, i.e. completely unreadable.

Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks for the help.
