MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Aura HD Help! No way to "lock" crop/zoom for PDF?!?

Hi all --

Tried reading my first PDF book on the Aura, and I'm really stuck/angry/frustrated.

The default page view is too smal, so I use the crop/zoom feature to get the page just as I want it to look.

But then -- once in zoom mode, there's no way to turn the page! Every tap of the screen just brings up the zoom options again -- is this normal?

To turn the page I have to drag the page all the way over to the right, which, unless my hands are super steady, always manges to move the page vertically as well, forcing me to re-position again on the next page.

Why is there no way to lock the zoom setting, so that every page shows up the same way? (My PRS-T1 did this...)

Am I missing something? I have SO many books in PDF format -- I'd hate to not be able to read them on my Aura!

Thanks!
