I took the pictures in standard mode, and also with the full screen ipdf version.
I also have the photography skills of an untrain monkey, so bear with me. Both documents are very readable in both modes. Full screen especially makes the second look great (after zooming to crop the margins). |

could you also please post a couple of photos about the following? http://www.manning-source.com/books/...tate2_ch06.pdf Could you please post a couple of hi-resolution photos of the book page 183 which show how the page looks like when showing the entire page (so that I need not scroll back and forth during paging) and what is the best display achievable for the picture on the page? Many thanks in advance, Robert |

Hi Adam
I am also considering buying an Iliad and have the same concerns as Robert regarding pdf display. Would you mind trying the attached pdf file and taking a picture of the display? Is it possible to zoom in and display only a portion of one of the columns? Thanks : ) Quek |

Please copy the link by the "Copy link location" context menu item (not by a text copy as the text of the link is abbreviated by the forum engine), open a new browser window and paste the copied link to the new window. It works for me that way. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, anyway. Best regards, Robert |

I am very interested in this product. I will be exclusivly viewing PDFs. I was wondering can you view them in Landscape mode and do they look ok? I don't mind scrolling I just want to be able to read PDFs.
Thanks |

Yes, you can read in landscape mode. You have a continuous mode on the iLiad, which lets you flip through the pages by using the flipbar and displaying a screenful of page after the other (almost like reading one half page after the other)
Reading like this is almost 1:1 size with A4 pages. Very comfortable to read. If you read scientific papers with colums, you should check out the multi column viewer, made by wpd http://forum.irexnet.com/viewtopic.php?t=1953 Last edited by tribble; 10-30-2007 at 03:14 AM. |
