So you have two choices for reading it. 1) Read it sideways for bigger text, but document will be split into two or three sections (like on a K3 if you have tried it out on that since you said you are selling it), or 2) use zoom and lock in portrait mode, but the text sizes will probably still be small. Neither option is ideal for scanned pdf. If I have to read scanned PDF constantly, I would get a big screen ereader. A kindle DX might be useful, but that's not for me because a PDF is just a static document on it and you can't annotate on it. I would get a iPad and buy a PDF reader app that allows you to annotate on the pdf.
Hi, thanks for the answer. with the kindle 3 I have now its impossible to read scanned pdf files, and thats why I am thinking seriously to sell it and get a sony 650. I know You didnt answer my question to that if I can take notes and highlight on a scanned pdf file.
Thanks lots for your guidance.
