pdf zooming question: I understand that you can zoom in on .pdf files without changing their formatting, but will .pdf files actually scale to the screen size with this feature, or do you have to constantly scroll around to view the entire image?

This board isn't the best place for questions about Sony readers, I think a better place is MobileRead forums, just search on Google, it'll pop up.

No, not really. You can use it to scroll and zoom in on some document formats, but the controls are clunky. It is a great tool for 2D and 3D CAD though.

To my knowledge, it only saves the screen in a PDF format, and that's it. There may be a way to do it, but if so, I haven't found it.

I have a related question. My primary use for it would be to read technical PDF files (with equations and color figures). The screen size at 10.1 " and 1000x600 resolution seems quite good, but I would like to know if anyone has compared it to the HP Mini-Note which has a 1280x768 resolution, but at a 8.9" screen size.

I have sved my phots in jpg format only and they came out great. I don't know about any other formats except pdf. Hope this helps. Nick B

Thank you for the response. But that is not it. I have walked through all the "Aspect' setting and the problem still exists in each area. It is very bad in the zoom setting.

Yes there is a "zoom" feature, you can freely press the + and - button to zoom in and out. HOWEVER: the dash express lacks the ability (unlike most other gps's) to dynamically zoom in and out depending on if your slowing down or speeding up (particularly in upcoming corners). this is a feature that they have hinted about adding in the neat future with their first feature upgrade.

Go into Playback mode and push "MENU" button. Select "SET-UP". Then select "IMAGE DISP"...here you will find Zoom (Continuous) to turn on or off.

Can someone talk about the 7's performance with reading PDFs? I am looking for a device that will offer the ability to read research papers in PDF when i'm away from my computer. Is there lag during switching pages? My old archos (504) was worthless for reading PDF files.thanks in advance for the info,- Deidra

You'll need to pull them into some kind of software. I've only used it to scan pictures. Then I load the images (jpgs) onto my computer and open them in Photoshop for editing. If you're scanning documents as pdfs you'll need pdf software, like Adobe Reader, to open and print them. I've never used it to scan as pdf, though.

check the remote for the aspect button (it's a rectangle with arrows) or go to the picture menu and on second "page" there is the aspect - it sounds like you're zoomed in. i did that to mine by accident.

Thanks for this tip. It appears to truly index the CONTENTs of PDF files & a bunch of other formats (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, HTML, WordPerfect, text, ZIP files and OpenOffice) and indexes JUST the filenames of other formats (GZ, HLP, RAR, SWF, TAR, VSD, SXD, MHT) - see tinyurl for yju73uq for a list of all formats supported in both ways. For $49 you get a really useful tool for ALL your files (professional version of Copernic Desktop Search just adds indexing of Lotus Notes & eases deployment, don't care about either). I'll report back on how this works out.

the projector does not have a zoom feature. you have to move the projector to make the image larger or smaller. I use mine hooked up to my ipad, and then I can zoom in or out as much as I need. if you hook it up to your computer you could also zoom it.

Yes it can.In the settings (lower right corner of your screen) find the icon and click to open... then select LEGAL for the document size.You can also set the resolution... higher for more detail, lower to save space. Experiment... I'm using it for receipts... so 75dpi works for me.

I suppose you installed the full package, which installs control panel 4. Open control panel 4, click configuration --> button settings --> scan --> file --> then use the following setting for black and white scanning that does not degrade the image, and at the same time gives a small size file. File type: pdf. Resolution: 200 x 200. Scan Type: Black and White. The rest of the settings are left the same as default. When done, click OK. Then click on the button "file" to begin scanning. See if the quality and file size are OK, further adjust the settings as necessary. If you have questions please let me know. Good Luck.

Only certain programs allow this. Others can only do this when in windows 8 mode (as in the start screen), like chrome. Zooming in and out is a simple pinching motion, similar to touch screens, and is done by touching 2 fingers on the mouse pad and sliding them together to zoom out, or apart to zoom in.

I use 16:9 aspect ratio and can see the entire screen. At first, I had it set on "cinema zoom" and my screen was zoomed in and lots of my picture was cut off. I haven't had that problem since switching to 16:9. Hope this helps!
