*  Recommended software  *
nConvert from Neuon is a file conversion suite for your EPOC machine that allows you to send and receive a wide range of colour desktop formats without need for prior conversion on a PC. It currently converts Excel, Access, RTF, HTML, various image formats (including GIF, JPG, BMP, etc), TXT, CSV and many more!..
Symbian Editor is a free plain text editor that allows you to click on TXT files from the System screen of ER3 and ER5 devices and edit them, rather than just view them. The app is similar to the OPL editor, Program, but offers spell checking, wrapping, word counting and a recent file list. Font and other display settings are available for display purposes only, having no effect on the actual file contents...
MBMV from Alchemy Software is a simple and free MBM viewer for your EPOC device which as well as allowing you to view multi-image file formats, can print them out too. Although there are other MBM viewers that can open files from the System screen (such as nConvert), many of them allow only allow you to view the first image of a multi-image file whereas MBMV will show all images contained within files, one at a time. It isn't perfect and on the Series 7 the menu doesn't respond to hotkeys however this is balanced by it's freeware status.
FontMachine from mBrain Software is an extension to the ER5 platform that allows standard desktop fonts to be installed and used on your EPOC machine without conversion to the native EPOC font format. These fonts can then be used in the applications and can even transform Web pages by allowing the browser to display the intended fonts. Supported file formats include TTF, TTC, Adobe Type 1/2/CEF, Open-Type, FON, FNT and EPOC GDR. After downloading a font, an extension to the Control Panel allows you to install the new System font in seconds without the need for a soft reset, and since many font formats are scalable you can produce large smooth text without the jagged lines of the standard EPOC bitmap fonts.
Tomeraider is an eText viewer that allows you to read the hundreds of available encyclopaedias, dictionaries, novels and other eTexts now available in Tomeraider format. The program allows you to search archives (or 'tomes') at incredible speed and bookmark pages etc. PC Tools are also available to easily create your own files!..
The Opera browser is an incredibly well featured Web browser that offers desktop quality features for your EPOC machine. Opera 5 offers support for HTML4, XML, XHTML, WML(WAP), CSS2, Javascript 1.4 and much more- just like it's Windows counterpart. Opera 3.62 is available free to all Series 7 owners by visiting the Psion Teklogix site... on your S7!
PDF+ is a handy program to view Adobe Acrobat files directly on your EPOC machine without any need for desktop conversion. The standard version is available free of charge and for a small fee you can upgrade to the ehnanced edition. PDF+ works on all EPOC machines and displays in full colour (including the images) on the Series 7 and netBook...
