I'm getting the reader today

so I will be able to check how all the books I made will look. I decided to go with the pdf format even though it sounds like the reader handles rtf better, because I'm very particular about fonts

and I like the abilty of pdf to embed fonts.

Thank for the info about the page size in the reader. Using those settings I checked my book in the connect reader and it seemed ok. I have used cambria font size 11, because any larger and I would get only one paragraph per page.

One questions, though. I read that the reader resolution is 166 DPI, if so, is there any point, when converting to pdf, to set the book DPI any higher?

Also I read here on the forum conflicting opinions whether pdf books take more time to turn the pages. If it's true, does it has anything to do with the book size? because unlike what I read here, the rtf and the my resulting pdf are pretty much the same size
