      Make sure you have plenty of memory on the device. My vintage Palm M500 only has 8 megs. But, if I leave 2 megs free I can load virtually any PDF doc that is primarily text.

      Go to the link in the resource box. It will take you to the Adobe page so you can download the Adobe reader for Palm OS. The instructions given are simple to follow. You will install it first to your PC. Then you will install it to your Palm Device. From that point on you can drag and drop files onto the PC Adobe for Palm application. Then Hotsync the machine.
