After P5 I lose all odd pages.....
Is it just me?

Lobster,
This is brilliant! I hadn't realized how much more comfortable I am with traditional book format vs. scrolldown until I saw this.
I've looked at Grant's pdf several times before and never made it through more than a few pages. Thought "Oh that's nice" and quit reading. Just sat here now and read the whole thing cover to cover and thought "What a great read!
Thanks ever so much for pointing this out. Think I will be busy for a while converting pdf's.
Cheers, J

Aitch,
I get the same result as you, losing all odd pages after page 5.
However, I have to agree with jrb; this is an excellent idea! Thanks, Lobster!

I was experiencing that problem earlier but working now........just takes a minute to fully load.Once its loaded, no missing pages.
Great idea.

Weird
I was using Opera and kept getting the load problem, but in Firefox with Noscript/temp allow this page....it works OK, albeit slow turning pages
I think I actually prefer foxit reader with Smokey's original pdf, but....different strokes, eh?
Thanks, Lobster

First time I have seen a really original app for a long time!
Pdf to flash page flip is really, really good. I might even start loving Flash!
Thanks, Lobster, for bringing it to our attention.

When I hit F11 to fill the screen...
How do I get out of that?
If I Zoom to make the text bigger, and the page goes off-screen, how do I scroll?

Hit F11 again

Left click and hold then drag the page with the mouse to bring the appropriate bit into view.
