Hello All, I just got a Libra H2O, and I've been testing out various readers in order to be able to read PDFs efficiently. Thus far, I found that KOReader is the fastest, but I have two questions:

1) How do I highlight/add annotations to more than one word at a time? Is that possible?

2) Are there strategies to improve performance for larger PDFs? I have a ~60MB and it takes a long time to turn pages, especially at the beginning (I'm assuming because the cover image is big). I tried converting to epub with Calibre, but the results were not good. Do I compress the file? Reflow using KOReader or some other app?

I really would like to be able to use PDFs on the device, but right now the experience is pretty unsatisfactory.

Thanks for your help!
