Request read purchased ebooks in docs to go

rogersgeorge · 07-04-2010, 09:25 PM

I don't see this mentioned anywhere, so maybe I haven't figured out how to do it. I bought an ebook that has endnotes. I want to be able to see the endnotes on the LCD screen as I read the book on the e-ink side. The purchased book is a pdf. I can't find the file using docs to go, and I can't find/open it with Aldiko, either.

It shows up in my Library, and I can't figure out how to copy it to my SD card, whence I think I might be able to open it. The license says I can have six copies on different devices.

Anybody out there got answers?

Hmm. I see no directories that start with a period, and /sdcard/doesn't have an edge directory, either. And I can't find a place to change the setting to see them, as I can in cpanel (from my laptop on the web).

forgot to mention that I was. It's in the app screen. maybe I should go online and download a newer version?

Will this work for you?
On the eInk-side: go to the page with the endnotes. Dubble-click on the camera-icon. The page will be displayed on the lcd-side.
On the eInk-side go back to the pages you want to read. The endnotepage will stay on the lcd-side.

It occurred to me to try this. It might make an okay work-around, though it will still be a nuisance to move to the next page of notes.

As for ES File Explorer - try pressing "Menu" - "More" - "About Us". Does it show "V 1.4.0 for enTourage"?

I can't find an export to pdf function! Help doesn't mention it. (Maybe you have a different edge than I do :-) ) I do have the reflow function, and the suggestion to use double-click the camera icon to make an image of one page at a time works, but it's cumbersome.

Yup, the version of my ES File Explorer is 1.4.0

On the ereader-screen tap the annotator-icon, then the icon for export to PDF appears.
