VGA PDF reader?

Is there such a beast? I just downloaded Acrobat Reader 2.0 for PPC and it looks horrible.

The thing that gets me about that is that it makes acrobat from being rather disapointing to pretty amazing. Why Adobe haven't done something with the idea is something I really don't understand

I wish there was a better alternative. I hate Adobe's PPC Acrobat Reader...it's way outdated, bloated, and the bugs/efficiency were never ironed out. One of the single biggest causes of my forced soft-resets.

My only issue with it is that it's a tad slow when redrawing... and if you're moving around on the SAME page, it redraws the whole page instead of just the section that needs to be drawn in (the newly exposed parts). Adobe, sadly, is faster than this by a half a second or so as a result.

Now if they could optimize it... and make navigation and zooming more flexible, then we'd have a winner. Right now.. it's a little clunky.

It's an inconvenient extra step, but Repligo works really well. You basically convert your PDF files to Repligo's format, and view that on the PPC with the Repligo viewer. Fast and works well, and the converted files are usually half the size of the PDF files so you save space. But yeah, it's inconvenient to have to convert the PDF on your desktop first.
