I looked for the answer to the question of why I can't view PDF in full
screen mode on my T3. It's definitely one of the most frequently asked
questions on the Adobe Forums! (http://www.adobeforums.com)
The official answer from Nirupam Tewary of Adobe is that it works on the
Clie devices, but not on the Palm devices. The next release of Reader will
let you read PDF in landscape mode on the full screen, but he already said 6
months ago that a next release "was forthcoming", and still says the same
thing.
What is so different about Clie devices that Reader works in full screen for
them? Would CodeDiver help?

Essentially, PalmOS didn't have a feature to change the screen size.
Sony kludged one. Then Palm came out with an official version later.
Reader was last rewritten during the interval.

When Sony released the first hi-res device, Palm did not have an API for
hi-res, so Sony wrote their own. When Palm finally got around to
releasing a hi-res device, they looked at Sony's API and decided to do
it different and released their own API. Until the most recent model,
Sony was still using their own API, but have recently started using the
Palm API.

Hope this helps.

Have you tried RepliGo? I've found it to be far superior to the acrobat
reader in just about every way.
