K, time to see how some other titles look on the DX:
Spirit of the Century - I thought the landscape would look great on the DX in landscape mode. It looks good, but a page is just slightly too big for the screen, so you start getting part of page 6 heading up most of page 7 (as an example). Overall I give it a 3
Basic Fantasy - Another PDF that looks like it was designed for the DX. Sharp, clean and easily read pages without even resorting to landscape mode. 5
Knockspell Magazine - Uncluttered pages that are easy to read on the DX. Simply a 5
The Barbarians of Lemuria - Wow. I mean really, WOW. I've decided that a 5 would not be high enough. The font is just a tad larger then most, the pages are clean and well laid out. 5+
DDI - Dungeon Magazine 156 - Not very impressive. Can't be read in the vertical orientation as the print becomes way to small. Horizontally the print is servicable in size, but background colors are shades of gray and make reading less then pleasant. 2
Going away for a few days after work tomorrow, but I've tried to load the DX up with RPG PDFs to read and rate. Think I'll be reading The Barbarians of Lemuria for pure pleasure shortly.

Do you have any of the official WOTC PDFs (PHB, MM, DMG, etc.) to try on it? I sort of figured the DDI Dungeon and Dragon wouldn't look great because of the page layout. I was hoping the books would look better.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to download H1 from wizards and report my DX results tomorrow if all goes well.
