New iPad Pro with M2

Re:New iPad Pro with M2 by wlesieutre on Tuesday October 18, 2022 @01:12PM (#33250688)

I'm in an architecture adjacent company and often deal with PDF drawing sets. When I get a 400 page PDF with E-size pages and I'm trying to look through a whole building to find or count something in it, I send those right over to the iPad.

Now that I think about it, displaying gigantic PDFs is probably the most performance intensive thing I use it for, and the iPad Pro is very fast at it.

What do you use for giant PDFs? I have some textbooks on mine, but nothing performs/functions as well as readera does on my android phone.

I’ve found PDF Viewer from PSPDFKit GmbH to perform very well, though I also sometimes use Documents by Readdle which lets me do things like reorder pages without a subscription.

Not sure if Documents is still that way for new users or only because I paid for it back before everything under the sun turned into a subscription.

iAnnotate handles my PDFs that are 100s of MBs with absolutely zero lag.
