PDF viewer?

Anybody have a good PDF viewer that is compatible with WM5? I cannot get adobe acrobat viewer 2.0 to load on my PPC. Are there other viewer that are good/better that do load yet?

I would be interested in this also. I don't think the Microsoft Reader will read pdf files will it?

Microsoft readert will only open .lit file, which Microsoft breefly touted as a rival to pdf.

If acrobat doesn't work, then clearvue has a pdf reader (although you'll have to pay after the demo expires). I own it as part of the clearvue office suite, and prefer the free adobe one.

Or you could try something like repligo and convert your pdf files (assuming that repligo works with wm5.... i'm still on wm2003SE :) )

humm....I wonder why adobe's V2 doesn't work for you? It works great on my hx2495 WM5... What's it not doing, won't install or won't read files?

I too had problems with Acrobat reader 2.0 and rolled back to version 1.0.

(I'm not sure if it is within the rules to send this via e-mail to anyone, but I probably have it on my HD at home!)

I use XPDFViewer for PocketPC - http://pocketxpdf.sourceforge.net/

It works alright if the files aren't encrypted, and loads pages a LOT faster than some of the others I've tried (ClearVue being the main culprit for me, since even with a 520MHz processor it took about 10 seconds to redraw any part of a PDF file even if I was just scrolling over to the side.

I have heard from others that ClearVue works well with WM5.0.
