Works with Zoho Viewer (Office, OpenOffice, RTF, PDF, HTML, CSV,
and you can request other formats). Upload files from your computer or
specify the online URL. A way to view online PDF files without the long
download (with a long wait to access Zoho by dialup instead).

I requested MPEG-4 low bandwidth. Fat chance.

You can leave Zoho viewer loaded and access it as needed.

Using Zoho viewer at 1024 resolution requires scrolling back and forth. 80% setting fixes this but does not display well (missing spaces between words). Use at 1280 if available. Or try a smaller font?

It displayed the text before the images of a "1MB" PDF.

Opera saved it as 1.34MB ****pdf.mht which is actually HTML chock full of html and javascript tags and includes the large Zoho page. Save as text saved all of the page except the displayed pdf file. Save with Viewer uses the Opera save feature. I wrote requesting a text-only display and save option.

Zoho is still slow for dialup, but handy if you have no PDF viewer, or want to just see the text, or have a slow CPU but enough RAM (96MB?) and a fast connection. Slower computers are usually low-res laptops so I also asked for an 800x600 option.
