The newest version of GoodReader for iPad is now available for download from the Apple App store and to celebrate the launch of the new iPad version we are giving 3 free copies away to Good E-Reader Members!
The GoodReader iPad edition is one of the top sellers among all iPad apps since it was first released! Some new features it includes is; horizontal page turning for PDF files to give it a truer book reading experience. The new version also will now rotate PDF files, display two-page spreads, and crop margins for PDF files so they don’t take up any available reading space on the iPad. It also crops out PDF page margins that are completely unnecessary to reading an electronic document. This new feature will significantly improve the readability of each page. Finally, one of the new features allows double-page spread reading for PDF files.
GoodReader has become such a huge success because of how it handles very large PDF and TXT files, navigating manuals, large books, magazines, and renderings of 100 mb and more with great speed compared to other document viewers. Providing the option of horizontal PDF page turning has been one of the most popular requests among GoodReader fans, allowing them to now enjoy reading a book or magazine by turning the pages in the same right-to-left manner they are used to doing with real books. GoodReader also now speeds up viewing of PDF pages by pre-caching, which renders the subsequent page while the current one is being read so there is no lag time when flipping pages.
Many of the documents viewed with GoodReader are those that have been scanned and emailed to the user, but often these documents are scanned in the wrong direction. The new option to rotate PDF pages is the answer to this problem, allowing users to easily adjust the entire document so that it can be viewed correctly.
Since the release of the iPad version, GoodReader has achieved #1 in sales in the U.S., Canada, France, Germany, Spain and many others. It currently retails for only $.99 in the iTunes App Store.
