iPad PDF Readers

Has anyone had any luck with PDF readers on an iPad for the Pathfinder Rulebooks? Even if broken into chapters they often crash the program. If you know of one that doesn't do it, I'm open to buying it, I just don't want to beta test all of them if the groundwork has already been laid.

F.r.e.a.k.i.n. AWESOME!

I'm not sure why I avoided GoodReader for so long (probably some negative reviews in the early days. Side swipe, full loading of the Pathfinder Core Rulebook (560 Pages with heavy graphics)!
If I could send you a referral fee, I would do it... lol
Thanks a lot,

Has anyone found a good pdf reader that let's you make notes on the pdf or copy/paste text from a Paizo pdf to email?

Edit: The PMG claims that goodreader does all the things I want. Am downloading now based on my blind faith in his abilities and worship of his technological prowess.

And no, this post wasn't revised by any admin after I made it. Why would you even ask such a thing?


GoodReader does annotate now and does allow you to select text. Personally I've like Aji Annotate, haven't had a chance to try the iPad iAnnotate version.

There are many reasons to get GoodReader, for a dollar you get a crazy amount of functionality so even if the PDF/Annotation isn't up to what you want to do it still has utility. Not the least of which is an ability to store almost any kind of file/document. I've even been using it as a flash USB drive on machines with iTunes (or connect through Wifi when not.


Well I say buy a PDF reader from a company smart enough to include A pdf READER WITHOUT A DOWNLOAD...i love my Kindle DX, as a matter of fact I'm using it now...And I had an IPAD but it fell quickly into disuse bc it doesn't do half what I wanted it for without a hassle. The IPAD is good for some things but as a GM carrying all my stuff in one place, My DX gives me the ultimate in convenience without playing the Steve Jobs shuffle... lol... When he said flash was dead, I almost spit out my drink, Adobe is 90% of the Web. Wishful thinking or pure stupidity. The only IPAD has going for it it the plentiful Aps...which is starting to happen with the Kindle now as well. Also the instant USB compatibility is awesome. In 10 minutes I had my entire PFRPG library on my Kindle.
