Windows Phone 7 App Showcase: Adobe Reader

2010-10-19
hey guys its brand name in a min from pocketnow.com and in this video we're going to review adobe reader for windows phone 7 so you can check out PDFs on your phone let's take a look now right now this is not available in the marketplace so if you get an email for example that has a PDF it's going to forward you to the marketplace but it's not going to let you download it because it's not available it should be available in October or November this particular device happens to have it already pre-loaded so what we can do here is go into outlook I've just sent myself a PDF so here it is and there's the attachment so I'm going to tap on it and it's going to download it'll take probably about 10 seconds and see if there it says downloading now it's done and let's open the PDF it's a very simple PDF reader that works quite effectively this is a tax form so we can do is scroll between the pages you get to see the boundaries and there are a few things you can do to manipulate this document obviously if you want to get a landscape view because it's very small in portrait you can do that we have some tools over here so we can go to the next page by pressing down arrow here we can also zoom in a little bit although you can use pinch-to-zoom quite well although it's not as smooth as you're going to get in the photos application it kind of zooms out and then it takes a minute to refocus itself but overall the PDF support and Windows Phone 7 is quite good and this works in the web too so I was searching google for a particular PDF i click the link it was a dot PDF URL it opened up adobe reader seamlessly so it works very well so that's a look at adobe reader for windows phone 7 and by the way there is a program associated with this just want to show you real quick which will give you a listing of all the recent PDFs that you have opened so here we have that form 1040 that I just showed you this way you can go back and say hey which PDFs were looking at even if it was on a website or in an email attachment all in one spot please thumbs up this video if you liked it and thanks for watching that's it for now
