GoodReader for iPhone, a robust PDF reader with advanced reading, annotating, markup and highlighting capabilities, has been updated to version 3.3.1.

The app serves as an excellent file manager, TXT file reader and editor, audio/video player, Safari-like viewer for MS Office and iWorks files.

According to its makers, GoodReader supports massive PDF and TXT files, as well as all of the most popular file types, which include: MS Office - .doc, .ppt, .xls and more; iWork'08/'09; HTML and Safari webarchives and high resolution images.

Good.iWare Ltd. says "it even does audio and video!" and now, thanks to update 3.3.1, it also does synchronization with remote servers.

- sync with iDisk, Dropbox, SugarSync and any WebDAV or FTP server - entire folders as well as individual files can be synced separately - you can set up many different files/folders to be synced with different servers. Later you can either sync them individually, or sync them all at once by pressing just one button.

Various sync parameters can now be adjusted. For example, file/folder deletion can be prohibited separately for local and remote files.

A choice of options is also available for sync conflicts - "Ask what to do", "Leave unresolved", "Local files have priority", "Remote files have priority", "Create duplicates."

Downloading-related improvements includes SugarSync support, while the web browser can now be locked with a password, and entire folders can now be downloaded from remote servers (no need to download files one-by-one now).

Other improvements include the ability to sort file lists by name, size and date, both ascending and descending orders; faster text search in large PDF files (for some files it's now twice as fast as it used to be); PDF annotations and a PDF fit-to width preference.

Additionally, the PDF Crop Margins feature now offers the "Crop to current view" button.
