Hey, /lit/, I'm planning on buying a Kindle 7th generation "Basic" (the cheapest one).
The only thing thats currently holding me is that I've heard that kindles don't do well with pdf files and most of my reading stuff is in the pdf format.
So, do any of you guys have experience in using a Kindle for reading pdfs? How slow is the rendering and whatnot?
PS. I know that I can always convert those PDF files to a MOBI format.

Kindle is absolutely shit with PDFs. Ipad Air is probably the best for PDFs in my experience.
Even if you set your kindles margins to the smallest and crop page numbers, margins and headers and footers, the text is tiny and squished, the rendering takes seconds, and the kindle wont remember zoom options. What has worked for me is using PDFs that were saved from text documents or well OCR'd and save as RTF, then format as necessary using replace functions.

Shit opinion from Kobo shills.
IRL it doesnt matter since Amazon loses money on Kindles and no one who is smart buys digital books anyways.

This is not as easy as it sounds. If it is a scan of a book or textbook and not a professional PDF done by a publishing house or saved from word or open office it just doesnt work. And there are plenty of scans out there.

is this kindle on the left the 7th generation? Because if so it runs PDFs pretty decently.
