Hello,

I had been checking the forum about the ability of e-readers to 'read' .pdf scanned books. Unfortunately the posts, though on the subject, were quite old (2004, even earlier) and as such the results were not very positive (most of the time letter size problems).

I am an architecture student and for me printed books are precious. But they have some disadvantages: they are most of the time heavy and expensive. So most of the time I scan them and read them on my laptop.

I usually scan them .pdf coloured and the resulting files are about 100 to 170 MB.

So my question is: are there any e-readers, currently, that can read such files?
(if possible, please recommend any other brand than Apple - because in my opinion they do not offer value for money).

I need to see images as well as text and I do not plan to do any OCR as this would take time and probably change the layout of the page. An easy to use zoom in function should suffice.

Thanks in advance.
