On Windows, if I want to enjoy a rtf book, I use MS word and use the full screen reading view.

What is a similar/inexpensive solution on the mac.

Thanks

Preview has a very nice full screen mode enabled by ⌘+Shift+F.

You will have to resave the rtf document as a PDF using TextEdit.

    Cmd-F is find? Did you mean Slideshow mode using Cmd-Shift-F?

    On Snow Leopard its Cmd-Shift-F. Also you won't be able to open an .rtf with Preview but you can open the .rtf with TextEdit and Save As PDF.

  • Unfortunately you can't click anywhere to go to the next page, only on a relatively small button. :(

I like to use the megazoomer plugin, which allows any cocoa application to become full screen. Every time I used it on a terminal window I feel nostalgic of DOS days...

MS Word is available on OSX as well, so you can simply keep using that if you wish.
