Kah89, There are several things you should be aware of with PDFs. Static images, i.e. scanned pages, can be zoomed but that just makes scrolling round the page very difficult. Non static images can be zoomed and there is no need for panning as the text reflows to fit the zoom level.

If you are looking at PDFs that contain diagrams and/or mathematical equations then those would be better converted to ePub format - which is what we do with service manuals, it also allows me to have the text on the reader screen and the diagram on the tablet screen.

One other thing I should mention if you are going to be reading technical manuals or textbooks, you should seriously consider getting a full sized eDGe - it will give a much better reading experience.
