Michael,

Looks great and I will give you some extra feedback.

I am using IE5.

Because the pages are a bit wide, I scroll the horizontal scrolbar a bit, so
the white margin on both sides are scrolled out of  screen. But when I move
to the next page, the scrollbar is at the left side again and I see only the
left side of the page.
When view de pdf-file with acrobat 4, the scrollbar remains on the same
position and once set I don't have to move it.

I don't know if this can be fixed, but it would make it easier to use with
smaller screens.
