Repligo will handle text and graphics formatted as per the original .pdf, but it must be converted. The converted file can be installed on the handheld or to Memory Stick.

Page reproduction is excellent, keeping all formatting, graphics, text, ec. intact.

Adobe Acrobat Reader for Palm OS does this just fine for me. And it's free.

You might want to have a look at RepliGo. You can display any file format on your Clie as long as the desktop application lets you print the file, as RepliGo (the desktop part, that is) is just a special printer driver, so instead of actually printing the file on your PC it will create a (compressed) .pdb file. All the graphics and page formatting are perfectly rendered, you can zoom in and out...

Be aware, though, that some .pdf files are "locked" so as not to be printable or not to allow cut & paste from it, in this case the use of RepliGo is not possible or not perfect. But then, there are solutions out there to remove a .pdf password if you really need the file on your Clie! ;)

Picsel Viewer can, at least for the PDF documents that I've tried. (don't know which OS you have-)

I just discovered this site. It allows you to read PDF's with iSilo. I don't know how it handles images because I haven't had the time to test it.

RepliGo and Picsel both render a PDF very nicely on a OS5 320x480 screen device. Both can view PDF's in landscape mode too. Adobe's reader can't compare to the others, other than being free.

Picsel can view a PDF natively, which Adobe's reader cannot.
