Well that is good to know, I have been reading otherwise. I plan on reformatting the book to a small screen size since it's a complete redo of an old Pagemaker file. So what I might do is test the table theory and one as a PDF. For this publication there aren't any links but the dictionary look-up might be a problem. They have quite a few older documents like this that they would like to make available for mobile reading so just trying to hammer out the best and most cost-effective approach.
thanks
