Thanks for comment about resolution. Sounds like I should think twice before going so far back in time to buy.

I think what I need to do is to find a couple of test files online that could be safely and easily loaded to a friend's tablet so I could try out two different resolutions before buying.

One test file is a science or math paper converted to PDF, since that is a major use case.

Second test file could be an ordinary ePub.

I could create these, but I can't easily put them somewhere online to be downloaded, hence the wish to find good test files already out there.

EDIT: Started a list of free format/file examples elsewhere on MobileRead: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...14#post3481214

(this page is a great help in a search like this for online example files: https://www.geckoandfly.com/11873/20...-free-e-books/)
