I too have frustrations with reading pdf's right now.  I often have to  
read pdf documents.  I am using preview.  I get so frustrated that  
anytime I leave the window if I return I am back at the very  
beginning.  Grrrr, this wastes a lot of time when I then have to find  
my place again.  This is super frustating as often my documents  
require me to go to a website.  Then the other thing I am having  
difficulties iwith is that often I cannot easily get a link to work  
unless I zoom very large and do a normal mouse click.  This is  
excrutiatingly frustrating.  For some reason I cannot just "vo  
spacebar on the link, nor can I then just rout the mouse pointer to  
the vo cursor.  For some reason the mouse cursor misses the mark and  
doing a mouse click does not actually click on the text link.  This is  
frustrating and very time consuming.

Maybe some folks here have some good ideas.
