Question

Can the ADE iOS app not scale and reflow text?

I am attempting to read a DRM-protected PDF on an iPhone using the ADE iOS app. I can increase the font size by pinching and expanding, but the text doesn't reflow, so content disappears across the margins.

Please tell me there's a way to read PDF on the ADE app with suitable text size. I don't see an option for this, unless I'm just flat out missing it.

This is Adobe technology reading an Adobe format, so I would certainly hope this basic usability feature is supported...otherwise the app, and my PDF content, is worthless. And of course with the DRM I am chained to it for reading my paid content. I'd happily read these files on iBooks, iOS Kindle, Nook, anything else, but apparently this is not allowed.

Adobe - help?

    I experience the same problem with my iPhone 7 whereas Kindle reader works fine.  I think ADE was designed with larger displays in mind. The only reason I’m using it is I received some complimentary content. Maybe that’s the use case.
