On a side note, I tried loading these onto my iPad and they install and load fine but have found that at page 4 and above it crashes my iBooks and GoodReader apps. Doubt it has anything to do with what you have done, just thought I'd mention it in case there actually is something that can be done on your end. Again, excellent work!

Interesting.

This issue is new to me. I have no iPhone or iPad, but i searched similar issues on google. There are several theme on the forums. Somewhere they said, the vector graphics may kill the apple apps. This is suspicious, because these files contain LOT of vector graphics (and lot of cross link too). Especially from the 4th page. We can try, that i render a pdf withouth the 4th page, and see, what happen. The other issues – which mentioned on the forums – causes full crash.

Edit: Here is the pdf file, please download it, and check the pages. I removed the 4th page, and edited the following ones. Tell me, if the iPad crashes somewhere.

Edit2. I tested on Android (Motorola Defy), Adobe pdf viewer. It loaded a bit slow, but when load it have no problem.

Just noticed this. Thanks for taking the time to look into this!! I just downloaded your test version and it crashed on me on page 6 of 7, or what you have labeled in red "iPad test page 3" where it loads and looks fine but then seems to still be loading then CTD. It's also probably due to Apple not allowing Adobe to have a native PDF reader on their devices and these replacements just don't render the same way... Pure speculation here. Thanks again, it would be awesome to have this great work of yours work on iPads, too.

I'm curious, what causes error like this. Perhaps it will be useful in the future

Intersting. The testpage 2 and 3 contain very few vector graphics (almost the same, the 2 contain linked bitmap, the 3 don't), if the iPad can handle the 2, it should handle the 3 Maybe the reader load the next page while you see the actual page? And it crashed when try to load the huge map on the page 4? (that map causes problems on my PC too. But it is attached 2 times, before I render the final pdf from Indesign... That stupid attach/link system already pissed me off, and now this... )

In the worst case, when i finish the sheets, I made bitmap export, and it will be printable like any picture collection.

Ah, the woes of being an early adopter then... I have an original iPad so it must be a memory thing then. Funny, it's the first time I've run across this issue. Good to know, thanks.

Try this (crash, performance, readability of the small fonts...):

EGKB_Biggin_Hill_v5_WIP_Ps.jpg

Simple jpg, export from Illustrator (The Ai is a 32 bit software, when i wanted to export directly from Ai, i got error message, that I have no enough memory for this. The 64 bit Ps can import the Ai file, and save a jpg easily... it seems, the attached map is the problematic part of the files, i will try, that I attach a jpg instead of Ai...)

Thanks for taking a minor request into account! Yes, the .jpg works just fine without any issues. I made a PDF with this pic and am able to view it with GoodReader and iBooks perfectly. Thanks for the test.
