I've got many technical literature in PDF (or djvu). It is scanned documents, not eBook.

I have Pocketbook 602. Not so contrast screen, no built-in light and not comfortable using of dictionaries forced me to own Kindle Paperwhite.

I uploaded my pdfs to Kindle and was horrified how NOT smoothed are fonts look.

Maybe photo is not with a good quality, but it looks like this.

Pocketbook vs KPW:

Kindle – http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5466/9...66fff653_o.jpg

So here are some questions.
Is anyone have the same problems?
Can I force Kindle to smooth fonts somehow (little hope)?
Can I smooth fonts on desktop somehow?
