If I click on that link, it says the e-book can be downloaded in either txt or pdf format. I can't continue, because I'm not a scripd member, so I can't download the pdf, but as it is, I don't see why you need primopdf (or any pdf-converter for that matter) to download it.

Just download the pdf and use your favorite viewer, what's wrong with that?

Same reason. PDF in most cases is about the same DPI as the screen.

Do we need to discuss why that is?
