As I understand it, though (and please correct me if I'm wrong), the fundamental problem with PDF files is that they basically consist of a series of page "images"; the pages can't be "re-flowed" as you can do with RTF or text files. Surely in that case, the best you could achieve would be to have the Reader provide a "viewport" that you could "scroll around" over the page. Do you think that would provide a satisfactory reading experience?
