I bought Sony Reader to not only read books, but also to use it with with abundant reports I get for my job. They all are in PDF format & they have to stay in the format they were published, can not crop them/half them, etc. After 3 days of trying to adjust different spex, using Rast, exporting from Acrobat to Word, RTF, Txt, etc, my conclusion is PDF is useless

. What a disappointment. So the rethorical question, why Sony ever bothered? if it would be lrf only, my level of expectation would not be there, but its multiformat.....

So for those who have time, what about converting pdf's to jpeg? anyone tried? I will do some conversions today & see the outcome.

cheers
