Thanks kindly

I'll just add that I've used Koreader for PDFs off and on, and reloaded it again the other day after a six month hiatus. With the latest version, I'm finding the responsiveness considerably better than before, making it hands down the best PDF experience on an ebook.

That said, I also keep a tablet for some PDFs. The reason: I review a lot of scientific papers, and these are too dense to display well on an 8-inch screen like the Forma's. But I find that reading novels or books of essays in PDF format works quite well with Koreader as the PDF software. I think much depends on the kind of PDF you plan to use.

Thanks.
Yes, the PDFs I'm looking at are standard book-fare variety, parsed with some medium to small size chess diagrams, that -so far- are very clear.

My brain keeps saying, try the Forma too, but my wallet says, Libra is doing ok, and it's only a small percentage of pdfs being read so hands off.

Forma + Koreader is the best available solution. In landscape it can handle pretty much all pdfs.

Onyx is best e-ink PDF reader. More power under the hood, with best software options. But they are more pricey. Glad you're enjoying your Kobo/Koreader combo. We are lucky to have Koreader.
