Content Pagenote viewing

Hi,

I am looking for description of the way pagenotes are viewed on kindle.

Do they open on different windows or are they displayed at the bottom of the page ?

Thanks for your help.

Regards

Are you talking about footnotes? I don't know what you mean by pagenotes. Also, which Kindle or app do you have?

ebook endnotes display as hyperlinks which direct you to the location of the endnote -- usually at the back of the book.

Newer Kindles will also open a popup of the endnote when clicking that link -- it is based on heuristic parsing of the link destination, and is usually pretty good.

Thank you for this information... I really need to get a hand on a kindle.

But as I am trying to edit some multilingual ebooks, I needed to know the way translation in pagenotes would look like on kindle.

Seems very similar to Kobo for the popup.

Thank you again

Regards

François

Perhaps you should've said something about multilingual endnotes then.

I don't see why they should look any different than they do in the main window.
