There is a way to make the SD card (or a partition of it) function as virtual memory -- but I don't know it off the top of my head, I'd have to use Mr. Google. And without my machine, I cannot experiment.
Or it could be corrupted PDFs, I suppose. If you can convert them to smaller files, it might help, too.

I'm suspecting a memory problem too, but I've tried with no success to shrink the size of the incriminated pdf files. I tried several applications, on mac and pc (pdf shrink and pdf compress on the mac are the ones that I remember now, but I tried a couple on pc too), but usually the size does not change that much and evince quits anyway after a few pages reading the (slightly) smaller pdfs.
Do you have any hint on a software that could do a good job on reducing pdf size and, or, can you give me a few more indications regarding googling about the use of the sd card as virtual memory? (I tried googling but I could not find anything related, so I probably did not use the right terms)
thanks in advance
