FAIRFAX, VA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/30/09 -- SLG Mobile, Inc. announced today that the company's popular BeamReader PDF Viewer has been made available for the Android platform and can now be downloaded from the Android Market. BeamReader for Android enables convenient viewing of PDF e-mail attachments and documents stored on the Android device in their full desktop quality right on the device itself without the need for server side pre-processing or any network connectivity. BeamReader embodies the most advanced on-device PDF rendering technology available for the Android platform. Some of the key product features include: fast full fidelity rendering, intuitive granular zoom and document navigation, support for all types of PDF documents (e.g. scanned, faxed, schematics, etc.), support for encrypted and password protected documents, text search within the document, support for bookmarks, and support for embedded links. BeamReader for Android can be downloaded directly from the Android Market where it is currently available as a free beta. Please visit http://www.slgmobile.com/beamreader_android.html for a full description of the product and screenshots.
The hallmark of BeamReader is its ability to render actual fonts embedded in a PDF document as opposed to using font substitutes that adversely affect the document's look and formatting. Instead, documents opened with the BeamReader look exactly like they would on a PC with all of the original fonts, images, and formatting completely preserved. Given the widespread adoption of the PDF format, this kind of PDF viewing functionality is a must have for a vast majority of personal and business users. SLG Mobile, Inc. is the maker of the popular BeamReader for BlackBerry: the first full fidelity native PDF reader for the BlackBerry platform ( http://www.slgmobile.com/beamreader.html). With the release of BeamReader for Android, the company is leveraging its significant expertise in developing full fidelity PDF rendering technology that is optimized for Java based mobile devices to fill an important gap in the essential software line up for Android. "We saw that existing PDF viewing solutions for the Android platform did not adequately address the needs of the users. As the result, we decided to bring BeamReader for Android to market because a mobile platform as sophisticated and as successful as the Android deserves proper PDF viewing software," said Evgeny Lebanidze, President and CEO of SLG Mobile. http://java.sys-con.com/node/1202631 -- Salam, Agus Hamonangan agus.hamonan...@gmail.com Indonesia Google Technology User Group http://groups.google.com/group/id-gtug/ Indonesia Android Community http://groups.google.com/group/id-android/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ ========================= Google Groups "Indonesian Android Community [id-android]" group.
