Adobe readers available for MS 5.0?

gerizam60 · 10-13-06, 09:39 PM

I've been looking for a .PDF reader that is compatible with MS Mobile 5.0.

I would like to be able to read .PDF files on my Axim when on the road.

Any advise?

ThanX

Adobe Reader 2.0 for PPC on their website. They have a downloadable setup program.

Also, if you do a search for "Adobe Reader CAB", you can get the Adobe Reader 2.0 cab file. Also look at the "How to Force VGA Mode" thread on here for options to make it fully VGA-aware.

Or you could go with something like PocketXpdf, which IMHO is much better than the Adobe offering.

0.50's improved GREATLY over the previous version (it actually renders pages at a reasonably fast pace, and doesn't take forever to rerender the page when moving across one that's zoomed in), but it's still a tad slower than Adobe is. Still, it's usable now, which is more than I could have said for it several months back.

It comes down to individual preferences, but PocketXPDF's definitely showing promise.
