I was working on some PDF versions of a book (large print, about 4000 "pages" when formatted), and I encountered some issues. Can anyone else confirm if these are Reader--PDF issues, or something to do with the PDF file creation method?

- All pages in a PDF past page 1000 are blank on the Sony Reader, although fine in Adobe.

- After I chopped the book up into 800-page sections, I found that page update times are extremely slow for the last pages, but almost reasonable for the first pages, This may be due to some requirement for scanning the whole document to find the page start.

The document contains text, with 2 embedded fonts. I wanted to use PDFs rather than RTF in order to use a more legible font and get hyphenation form Word (which really improves readability with larger fonts).

Does output from PDFRastaFarian suffer from these issues too, or just text?
