Is anyone going to make another custom pdf reader?

The only annoying thing with the built-in reader is that I can't tweak the zoom accurately, aka. it only goes 50% 100% 150% 200% 250%.

I want something between 200% and 250%. Will someone make a pdf reader that has a more precise zoom control?

Dont know if its just me that has this problem.

The way I experience the pdf reader, it has more serious probems than just zooming. It is much weaker than Adode Reader L.E. 2.5 for symbian S60.

It doesn't permit the command "wrap text" that allows a reader to enjoy any zoom without having to swap sideways.
again, it does not permit searching text within an open document.
I think these powerful devices need a much more stronger pdf reader.

Pdf reader from android can wrap text and I think if you have nitroid installed than you will be able to enjoy pdf. But yeah it will be a shame that you will have to use other os for such a basic functionality

There is Evince in extra-devel, it has more zoom controls in the lower zoom levels, though not anything between 200% and 300% in the higher levels. But it does have fit to width and fit to page, which might serve you better anyway. as well as rotate into portrait orientation

It will also remember the page you were on reopening a pdf. As well as a search function, with Ctrl-F.
