Open Adobe PDF documents on Symbian devices

If you have a Nokia or other Symbian OS-based device, then you might want to read PDF dociments on it. In this case you sould use sone third-party application to do it. Because Symbian doesn't support Adobe PDF documents natively. There is three options: mBrainsoftware's Pdf+ for viewing PDF files with Nokia S60 devices, Documents to Go to use with UIQ and Series 80 and native Adobe Reader LE 1.1 for some Symbian devices. Pdf+ viewer lets you view stored PDF files, read password-protected PDF files, and display all the text, line drawings and images within a PDF document. Also you can search and follow hyperlinks in the Adobe PDF file, and view and follow bookmarks. The Documents to Go by DataViz provides the same capabilities only in professional version. The simpliest application is Adobe Reader, but the main advantage is no cost of it, you can download it for many models from Nokia website.
