Mar 2, 2012 at 13:31 comment added Yosemite Sam I thought of trying that but then I just couldn't be bothered (and there's still the problem of when you do not have access to the tex file). Why don't you use a5paper, or geometry's screen option?
Feb 20, 2012 at 20:19 comment added Lars If you are using linux (or have cygwin installed), then you can use the program "pdfcrop". It automatically crops the whitespaces of a pdf document. Unfortunately this only works for pdf's which are not scanned. But for Arxiv papers its fine!
Feb 20, 2012 at 9:31 comment added Willie Wong The Kindle DX (the "large screen version") actually handles the white-edges pretty well: the PDF reader automatically scales the paper so that most of the white edges are gotten rid of. The reader itself is almost the size of A4 paper, and for standard-format arXiv posting using amsart, the display is about 90% of physical size, which is very readable. For pdfs downloaded from journals, the size is even more comfortable.
