I agree that Pdf+ leaves a lot to be desired! It's so slow 'drawing' & then all over again when u move or change page.
Full screen landscape view would be much better.

I was amazed when I had my p900 that you could view what you could.

On the Sony Ericsson P900 Support link is a free application with the following descrption:
"Additional Viewer from Stellent
With the Additional Viewer from Stellent you can display several file formats created in standard business applications directly on the mobile phone, without needing to access the native application.
You will be able to open and obtain high-fidelity views of email attachments and other business content such as Microsoft Office documents and Adobe PDF files."
It is located at teh following link:

I have installed it. But I can't verity that it can be used to display PDF files since I haven't tried that.
Best wishes,

OK.
(The reason I hadn't tried it is that I don't use my P900 for file accessing much so I didn't have a PDF file on it. Anyway I downloaded a file - the HandyBook user manual.)
It seems to work ok. I used the file manager, clicked on the pdf file name and the Viewer was instantiated and brought up the PDF file.
The controls are primitive in the extreme. It seems to want to treat the document as a slide presentation. There is no "next page" button visible. To get to the next page in a document you need to pull down the "Edit" menu and click "Next Slide".
It has no "Preferences" menu (but that may just be the Viewer app in general, as I said I don't do much document processing on my phone.)
It has some basic zooming capability: in, out, page width, entire page, etc. But I'd say most are useless since when you display a page it is illegible.
But it does seem to work in a rudimentary fashion and it is free.
Best wishes,
Paul T
