Word wrap in iOS app reader for pdf files

stephenleo

Not sure if this was brought up before as I couldn’t find anything similar searching through the forums. I’m reading some pdf papers (from arxiv) using the iOS beta app. However, as the font size is small I end up zooming in. But, there is no “word wrapping” and the page extends beyond the corners of the screen. This requires left to right scrolling to read the entire page.

Is it possible to implement some sort of word wrapping on the reader so that the page is constrained to the size of the screen? Something similar to how ebook readers automatically wrap text when adjusting the font size.

Thanks for considering.

We may be able to offer a reader mode on iOS. We'll look into it.

Any updates on this feature?

Yes, there's been a reader mode on iOS for a while now.

Indeed. However, one can't make text bigger (nor highlight). That would be nice.

Thanks.

Actually, I find that using Continuity and mirroring the Mac is the best way to read Zotero articles on iPad. The problem here, of course, is that the Mac needs to be nearby.
