PocketXpdf 0.31 native PDF Viewer for WM

Alexander Turcic · 01-17-2006, 09:28 AM

Until now it's been a challenge to deal with PDF files on Windows Mobile devices (well, there's Adobe Reader for Pocket PC if you like to torture yourself with bloated software). With PocketXpdf, suddenly it looks a lot easier. PocketXpdf is based on the Xpdf viewer and allows you to view Adobe PDF documents without the need of converting them first. Features include: VGA and WM 5.0 support, full-screen mode, landscape mode, and a text-only mode.

Only caveat: password protected PDF files are not supported yet.

To me, the redeeming feature of the Pocket Adobe Bloatware Reader is its ability to flow text. I don't think Xpdf can do that yet, and scrolling left and right is positively tedious.
