Iliad's *standard* PDFviewer? Here is a link to a small bundle:

- Does the PDFviewer display the bookmarks?

I have an Iliad and was disappointed with the EFlyBook software. I experimented with the native PDF viewer and found it works great. The Iliad content lister and PDF viewer are completely reliable in my experience. I spent some time massaging the NACO pdfs so they look good on the Iliad and now publish them as a package. Check out http://www.flypaperless.com You can see screenshots at http://www.flypaperless.com/screenshots.htm

If you have an Iliad and want to give them a try we offer a single chart cycle option so you can see if you like them.

Oh, and are the small fonts truly readable? Yes, you can read every piece of text on the charts.
