As far as I know, only the Adobe engine can do that, so I presume Astak uses it (as does DR800). It 's also a whole lot faster than the open source PDF renderer used by DR1000.

Hi Gertjan - I don't mean to criticise, but if Irex people had put as much effort in delivering functionality that matters to users as much as they have to providing "optional extras", this problem could have been solved ages ago.
Do you have an theory as to the boot up time on Iliad devices? Why isn't there a sleep option?
Unfortunatelly for Irex at the end of the day the marketplace will judge the success of their strategy. I for one don't think I'll be buying another Irex device ...
