Paper books are not normally A4 size!

I agree with Susan Cassidy. Paper books are not normally A4 size (apart from coffee table editions of volumes bought to entertain and impress visitors. An ereader's strength is that it is light weight: its weakness is that is cannot render large page formats (e.g. A4) adequately. For PDF files you need a 10 inch tablet. I have sometimes connected my PC to the TV and that gives an even better image of PDF files and if you use a remote controlled mouse, you can sit in your armchair and read your PDF file on the big screen in comfort!
