Using Reader features
Reading a book electronically gives you several options not available with
paper books. These options are available from any book page.
Select text by dragging across the text on the page. Then, tap an option on
the pop-up menu, as described below.
• Search for Text. Find text in a book by tapping Find on the pop-up
menu. Enter the word you want to search for, and tap the desired Find
option. Reader highlights found text on the page. To close Find, tap
outside the box. To return to your original page, tap the title then tap
Return on the pop-up menu.
• Copy Text. You can copy text form books that support this feature into
any program that accepts text. On a book page, select the text that you
want to copy. Then, tap Copy Text on the pop-up menu. The text can be
pasted into the program of your choice.
• Bookmarks. When you add a bookmark to a book, a color-coded
bookmark icon appears on the right margin. You can add multiple
bookmarks to a book. Then, from anywhere in the book, tap the
bookmark icon to go to the bookmarked page.
• Highlights. When you highlight text, it appears with a colored
background.
• Notes. When you attach a note to text, you enter the text in a note pad
that appears on top of the book page. A Note icon appears on the left
margin. To show or hide the note, tap the icon.
• Drawings. When you add a drawing, a Drawing icon appears on the
bottom-left corner of the page, and drawing tools appear across the
bottom of the page. Draw by dragging your stylus.
NOTE To see a list of a book’s annotations, including bookmarks,
highlights, text notes, and drawings, tap Annotations Index
on the book’s cover page. You can tap an entry in the list to
go to the annotated page.
Removing a book
When you finish reading a book, you can delete it to conserve space on
your device. If a copy of the book is stored on your desktop computer, you
can download it again at any time.
To remove a book from your device, tap and hold the title in the Library list,
then tap Delete on the pop-up menu.
