The problem is I haven't been able to see a youtube video showing how this reader handles technical documents. So, I was wondering whether someone here is kind enough to record a short video showing how this reader handles PDFs and DJVUs. Additionally, is there an option on the default PDF reader to automatically trim margins? Thanks.
The best ereading softwares are EbookDroid and Koreader. Every other apps are really bad with pdfs. These 2 are the best for pdf and djvu. I have tried everything under the sun. You can also add Perfectview's pdf plugin (it is a comic book reader but very nice for pdf too) to the combo.

Ebookdroid does not offer reflow but has nice auto crop and crop with picture enhancements options. Also half of the pdf readers on Google play are knock offs of Ebookdroid(which was open source before). Ebookdroid is the original.

When you need reflow you need to use Koreader (which can relow image pdfs as well). I believe that the Neo reader apps that come with Onyx devices are modified Koreader, just a guess though.

Both Ebookdroid and Koreader works fine on my C67ML, however I am curios to hear about how they perform on i86.



Koreader can be picky on Android devices. It is more crashy on some devices than others.
