You only have two choices - reduce the document size to fit the screen, or have a system of "panning" the screen over the PDF page. Neither is a good solution.

Sorry, I do not agree. There are tools available that make it possible to read pdfs on the reader by rendering the page on the computer, and saving the result as a picture, which can then be viewed on the reader. (PDF RasterFarian). They achieve much better readability than the original pdf file. If the reader did exactly the same rendering by default, pdfs would be much more readable. What is needed, I think is: fonts are too thin. PDF fonts need to drawn bolder. Reader should be able to autocrop edges, or enable the user to zoom in.
