The problem with the PW is that the preset margins of the device are too big, the up and down margins make you lose about 1 inch diagonally, and there is no way to remedy this by changing or cropping the PDF file, since the size of the PDF file will always be about 5" instead of the 6" that is the size of PWs screen.

This is why there MUST be a way to reduce PWs preset margins. Some PDFs are so small and difficult to read. PLUS you can't change the font size on PDFs! It's ridiculous, it's like Amazon is trying to bug the hell out of its customers!

The Sony, for example, shows the PDF in the full 6", allows you to crop, change letter size, etc. The mere fact that you're looking at the document in 6" instead of PWs 5" makes the PDF MUCH easier to read. Shame on Amazon.
