How well does this handle large PDF files

Not very well. PDF's will cause restarts and FC's I wouldn't recommend this tab.

Here's my method: I have set the scanning to FULLY searchable. I then use Acrobat Pro to find the documents with simple keywords off of my network drive. I do not need binders and directories anymore (not feasible with 9400 pdf's) and find this to be efficient and simplistic. You can also use a host of library tools (like Mendeley for Mac or Linux or Windows) to easily search large libraries of searchable & indexed PDF's. I tried these virtual document management tools like rack2file and idocuments (mac) and once you get past the initial glossy interfaces you start to realize they are terribly inefficient and take lots of time in prepping docs. Now I have settled for the solution in paragraph 1 and am happy. I have evolved into DevonTHINK pro office and am loving it. Much better than what i had before.

I've updated the firmware to the latest version (something of a comedy of errors), and I find that it just doesn't handle PDF files very well. The second problem can be sidestepped if you can reformat your PDF documents with larger margins. Not ideal, I know.I haven't encountered the first problem yet. Updating the firmware may be a solution for you on that. (I didn't try any PDF files until after updating.)

Nope, the file needs to be indexed during your initial scan or use other software to index your pdfs

I have never tried a pdf file. The resolution is so poor, I'm not sure you could even read it. I wouldn't recommend this projector for any presentations at all.I used it strictly for halloween digital animations.

That would depend on your usage, average file size, etc. I am so lazy I didn't bother formatting it. I just use it as is.

I bought it for transfering my old pictures on to a drive and it worked prefectly.. Some of the pictures were very thick and it still transfered them. I can't see why it wouldn't work on sheets of paper of pages from a book.

It is a great little machine. I prepare opwrating manuals with it. it take standard 8 by 11 1/2 paper of any weight. Next you must purchase the width. The width you select will be dependent upon he thickness of the document you prepare. Mine are in teh 1/4 inche range which will handle about 30 to 40 pages of 32 lb paper. Verry professional look.

I saw the same thing and wondered. I bought mine and it was the best decision I made. So much easier on the eyes then reading on the computer or my ipad. It is very slow, I was surprised by that but once you get your pdf open, its pure gold.

I have 75 plus files in mine it obv would depend in how many papers are in each file. Most of mine have about 10 peices if paper. A few have closer to 40 or so. Hope that helps.

Only done it a couple of times and it worked well. Some fields were converted to text boxes, but editing and resaving as pdf worked perfectly.

It's not such a bad idea, but finding the right software to transfer your work can be irritating, that is if if you're not using an SD card. Pretty sure the system can only read up to 2GB as well, but files are generally not too big to worry about filling the card up anytime soon. Also, the files are of a format where you'll have to download a program to read them, and then re-save them in a format which is more pleasant for instance, .doc or .docx for windows. Any other questions let me know!

Have had some issues with large file transfers originally. It does have issues with permissions especially if it was already on the disk prior to being connected. It will read fine but will have issues writing, Works great with Windows clients, can be hit and miss with linux clients due to the tighter permissions security.

Hi Robert,Thanks a lot for the info, it was exactly what I was interested in finding out. I've been back and forth about whether to get a dedicated e-reader like the Kindle DX for my PDF's, but considering the price I feel like for that kind of money, I need to think multi-function. I'm trying to limit my gadgets to only a few things that I carry around at one time.

the palm rejection worked great for me.no problem there. as for the PDF files, i didn't even really get into that. the buttons on the pen were simply undo and redo shortcuts in the app i used. i used the pen for about 10 minutes and didn't like it simply because the lines would not come out straight. not good for tedious work. hope this helps

This works just fine, it just depends what apps you use. I'm running the whole Adobe Suite CS6 just fine while doing multiple things without missing a beat.

Thats what I use it for and I love it. Can use huge worksheets without scrolling, and easily have 4-6 pages up in Word at the same time. Great for editing.Be careful as you MUST have a Dual Link DVI port, or Active Displayport adapter and a computer that supports the default resolution as that is the only resolution.
