Request Cut and paste from e-book into LCD side

shark_scott · 07-16-2010, 06:22 PM

Hi,
Sorry if this has already been mentioned, or is already do-able (I haven't seen a mention of it). I would like to be able to select text from a document I'm reading on the e-ink side and paste it into a text document on the LCD side. This would be useful for quoting text in academic papers.
It seems a simple thing and I'm surprised it's not already possible (then again, maybe I'm just missing how it is supposed to be done).
Thanks!
Mark

Open the annotations toolbar on the e-ink side, select text with the cursor tool, select copy -- double page icon, touch and hold in doc on lcd and a pop up comes up, select paste. Your book must be in the library to use the annotations toolbar.

Thanks! I thought it was odd that such a feature wasn't included. This will save me a lot of time.
