PDF questions

I use almost exclusively my mobile android phone for reading, but paizo pdfs always have image problems (and only paizo. Only once did I have a non-paizo pdf give me a problem).

Some images, not all, just a few, usually one or two per page, turn black and get placed on top of the text.

Normally this is a minor issue, because it is usually artwork, but a recent one I downloaded I can't read at all because the images that turned black were all the page background images.

For reference, I use Pocketbook on android (previously 4.1, 4.4,) 7.

So, what I wanted tk know was if you, the tech folks or a paizo somebody, test the pdfs for viewing on android phones, and if so, do you use a free reader program, if so, which one?

All Paizo PDFs are optimized for use in Adobe Reader (this is free for Android) as our standard. Given the number of free and niche PDF readers available, it's not possible in our current workflow to troubleshoot beyond the most highly used applications.


That's fine. It's why I asked what you used.

Strangely, I never saw adobe reader in the app store, hence why I went with something else. I'll go run a dedicated search for it, thanks.


FWIW, I use the paid version of ezPDF Reader. It has a couple of versions that you can try for free.
