Can I ask how pdf books look on Aura? Is it possible to read without zooming?

I downloaded this http://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/Class...I/CalcIII.aspx and opened it on the Aura. It is possible to read without zooming, font is small but not tiny. Diagrams and equations are all easily readable. I would feel comfortable reading properly formatted PDFs on the Aura.

I also tried a not so well formatted novel, it was readable but the line spacing was larger and the text was only on one side of the page. This obviously is the fault of the file. When I tried zooming in and moving around the page the ghosting was pretty bad when set to a 6 page refresh. Setting to a 1 page refresh made things a bit better.

There is a box in the top left hand corner that shows where you are on the page which makes it IMPOSSIBLE to read the top left corner Maybe there is a way to turn this off, I don't know.

I hope this helps.
