How to use the CDROM
Here is a brief overview of the functions of this electronic book:
| Navigator |
The navigator provides centralized access to the contents of the book.
In the navigator, five levels are offered: Contents, Index, Full-Text Index,
Bookmarking and a Clicking History. |
| Table of contents |
The table of contents is arranged in a tree structure, which allows the
opening and closing of individual chapters as in Windows(TM) Explorer. Colored
texts highlight chapter titles, black texts link directly to the related
page when clicked. |
| Index |
The book offers an index, which corresponds to that of a normal printed
book in its functionality. |
| Full-text index |
The book also offers a full-text index, which contains every word in the
entire book - except connecting words (e.g. 'and', 'the', 'of' or 'with'),
which have been explicitly excluded from the indexing. You can also link
several words together with a logical AND, by holding down the
"Ctrl" key, as you click the references concerned. |
| Links between pages |
The links between the between the pages consist of three different layers:
First, the embedded links, which are highlighted
in blue, second, the "See also" references (bottom left) and
third, the buttons for scrolling forward and backward (bottom right). |
| Printing |
You can print out the pages of the book by displaying the appropriate
page and then pressing the print button. |
Please note that the extended navigational functions are only available in the Coimbra-based installable eBook. The Web edition provides only a small subset of these functions.
