Siemens SX56 manual Reading a Book, Using Reader Features

9.7.3 Reading a Book

Each book consists of a cover page, an optional table of contents, and the pages of the book. Navigation options are listed in the bottom portion of the cover page.

The first time you open a book, you will probably want to go to the first page or to the table of contents if there is one.

Subsequently, whenever you open the book, you will be automatically taken to the last page read.

In addition to the text, each book page includes a page number and book title.

You can also page through a book by using the Up/ Down control on your device.

9.7.4 Using Reader Features

Reading a book electronically gives you several options not available with paper books. These options are available on any page of an electronic book that you are reading.

For example, you can manipulate text on-screen. To do so, first select text by tapping and dragging your stylus across the text on the page. Then, tap an option on the pop up menu as described here:

ξ 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. The reader highlights the found text on the page. To close Find, tap outside the box. To return to your original page, tap the title and then tap Return on the pop up menu.

ξ Copy Text. You can copy text from books that support this feature into any program that accepts text. On a book page, select the text you want to copy. Then, tap Copy Text on the pop up menu. The text can be pasted into the program of your choice.

ξ Bookmarks. When you add a bookmark to a book, a color-coded bookmark icon appears in 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.

ξ Highlights. When you highlight text, it appears with a colored background.

ξ 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 will display in the left margin. To show or hide the note, tap the icon.

ξ Drawings. When you add a drawing, a Drawing icon appears in the bottom-left corner of the page, and drawing tools appear across the bottom of the page. Draw by dragging your stylus.

ξ 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.
