Tips & Warnings

  • Transfer the PDF file after you have installed the Mobile PDF reader. This way, your PDF files will be retagged for easier viewing on mobile devices.
  • Some PDF files won't have the word wrap feature work properly. If so, delete the file from your PDA and re-transfer it. That should convert it to the new tagged format.
  • Larger PDF files will take a while to convert and transfer. Be prepared to wait.
