I agree. When switching to landscape view and not showing the entire page, of course it's working nicely.
But if I see the results of ePUB and compare to the less convincing PDFs, I'd like to see significant improvement here.
I'd like to choose a letter size, which is at the edge of readability. As many lines as possible. in ePUB I can do that. PDF looses it's "charm" way earlier.
It's absolutely explainable because of zooming instead of reflowing.
But why? Why do they have reflow for ePUB, but not for PDF?
