The Libra 2 uses the exact same SoC as the Forma. The only difference is the screen tech, which is... different (previous generation but plastic for the Forma, newer generation but glass for the Libra 2).

Given that PDF workloads are much more heavily tied to the SoC's performance than the screen's, I don't except any meaningful difference between the two (unless you're an eink nerd).
