Viewing very large images on a WM6 phone?
June 4, 2009 7:59 AM Subscribe
How do I deal with a very large image (a map, actually) on my Windows Mobile 6 phone?
I would love to be able to look at an NYC MTA map while underground (on the NYC MTA, naturally). But the picture viewer on my XV6900 complains about RAM (or is too slow to be useful) when I view my map JPG (or PNG, tried that too) at full resolution. Other imageviewers seem to have a similar problem. XnView has no memory or speed problems, but has a tendency to pixelate the map when viewed full-size.
Are there any (free/cheap) applications suitable for this task?

have you tried opening it in opera and using the builtin zoom feature?

Response by poster: Huh. Viewing the image as a PDF seems to be the best solution! Thanks!
I couldn't figure out how to open an image in Opera, sadly.
