PRS-600 Usability of the PRS-600

Kintaro Oe · 04-21-2010, 07:09 PM

Hey Guys,

To save the forests I want to use my Reader for my University readings. These consists of 4:3 PowerPoints converted to PDF. Unfortunately after I changed the orientation, the reader shows the slides, which are 4:3 on a 3:4 background. So there is a empty space above and under the slide. Now I have the choice between the upper half of the slide and a lot of white emptiness or vice versa.
Is there a workaround?

Cheers Kintaro

P.S. That I am a goody two-shoes is a lie, it is justs plain cool to show up in a course with nothing but a reader instead a backpack full of printouts

There's a thread about removing the margins from PDF. Don't know if it'll work for your needs though.

I found a way. I rotated the Pages using Free PDF Tools and now it works fine.

Well I'm glad you aren't a "goody two-shoes" but screw the forests, you and I will both be dead before we notice a change - remind me again what our forefathers did for this generation

I know...
