Hi Willus,

first I'd like to thank you for this great tool. Wouldn't be possible to read scientific papers on the Kindle in such a comfortable way without k2pdfopt. Thanks!

I've got a question on native PDF output and text reflow...

In the command line documentation it says:

Code:

1. Native PDF output cannot be used with text wrapping
   on (see -wrap option).  Turning it on will disable
   text wrapping.

So I guess it is not possible now to reflow/wrap the text.

Will it be possible in the future? I'm asking, as the native PDFs have much smoother fonts and therefore are much nicer to read, but as they still have the same number of word's per line, esp. single column documents become hard to read due to small font size...

Thanks a lot,
Carsten
