    OK, as you can see from a different thread of mine i have quite a lot of ebooks, I was just wondering which ebook reader everyone uses for the differnet formats.

    .PDF: adobe acrobat or the adobe accrobat ebook reader
    .LIT: Microsoft Reader
    .TXT: YPager
    .PNG: Havnt found one yet.

    Cant remember any other formats, if you think of any or have any better programs free or otherwise please list them, as im always on the lookout for programs to make it easier to read books of the pc.

    .PDF - Adobe Acrobat
    .RTF - Wordpad
    .PNG - If you have Microsoft Office 97 or later, Powerpoint, Excel, Word and OfficeArt all support .png files.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/pngapps.html is a website that deals with viewing .PNG files. It'd probably be a lot easier to go through and find what you have.

    ok i know there are other ppl on this forum besides me and MagicNakor who read newbooks, i would just like to hear ppls oppinions of the best readers that you can get, the more expensive the better, as long as i can download it for free .

    and expecially for .png files, i need an app that will let me read the book like a proper book like ypager for text but something for .png.

    thanx stoi.

    Yes. I'm beating a dead horse.

    zapjb sent me this link for reading e-books, and I just got access to that email account tonight. So, here it is:

    Book Reader

    I haven't used it yet, but from what it says, it looks decent. Freeware.

    MagicNakor, glad you got it. I like BR4. It handles some of the extensions but not all. It makes the print huge & has an auto-scoller. Great for me. Although I haven't tried others except adobe acrobat which I despise.
