Book

Use the READ for Windows Book window to read softcopy books.  Use the Book window menus for such things as printing, editing, moving through the book, setting up ways to view the book, searching for certain words or phrases, and even jotting down notes.

Instead of using the menus, you may prefer using the graphical tool bar that displays beneath the menu bar.

Window Appearance

When you open a book, you see two windows separated by a split bar.  The one on the left contains the book and the one on the right contains a list of topics found in the book. You can use the topics list to help you navigate through the book, or you can drag the split bar all the way to the right to hide the topics list from view. If you prefer, you can see the topics list in a separate window by choosing By Topics on the Navigate window.

You can chooseSave Window on the Options menu to save the window sizes and the position of the split bar. You can also change defaults and set features of the window that display each time you open the window by choosing Workspace from the Options menu.

Procedures

•	Print part or all of the displayed book

•	Create, edit, and view reader notes in the book

•	Copy book parts to the clipboard

•	Use bookmarks

•	Turn the tool bar and status bar on and off

The line at the bottom of the application window that indicates the status of the window and the application.  It often reminds you to do things like press F1 for help.


NT is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation.


Microsoft is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation.


Windows is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation.


Use the minus sign that is in the numeric key pad to the right of your keyboard.  If you cannot use the numeric key pad, then use the key combination Ctrl+Shift+- from the keyboard instead of Ctrl+-.


Use the drag operation to move an item on the screen to another place on the screen.  For example, you can drag an entire window, the scroll bar, or the split bar.

To drag:

•	Press and hold down the mouse button 1.

•	Move the mouse while continuing to hold the mouse button until you have reached your destination.

•	Release the mouse button.


The text that does not reflow when a window is resized is considered nonreflowable text.  Nonreflowable text is found in tables, figures, example text, syntax diagrams, and right-justified text.


The split bar divides the Book window into two parts. The book topics are listed in the window on the right. The text itself is on the left. You can drag the split bar in either direction to adjust the size of the two parts.


Removing a book from a bookshelf does not delete the book from your system.  Only the bookshelf entry for that book is deleted. The actual book file remains on your system.  If you want, you can add the book back to the bookshelf.


A bookshelf is a set of books. A bookshelf does not actually contain books, but simply lists them. Therefore, removing a book from a bookshelf does not delete the book; it merely removes its name.


A fuzzy search looks for all occurrences of your search word in any form that shares the same language root.  For example, if you search for color, it will also find colors, coloring, and colorful.


An exact search looks for all occurrences of your search word exactly as you enter it.  You can choose to make it case-sensitive and also match the capitalization exactly, or you can choose not to consider the capitalization.


A bookshelf search index increases the speed with which you can perform a multiple-book search on a bookshelf.  A bookshelf search index is created for a specific bookshelf and contains all the words in the books that are in the bookshelf when the search index is created.

You can create a bookshelf search index using either BookManager BUILD/MVS or BookManager BUILD/VM.  Because READ for Windows cannot create bookshelf search indexes, you must either use prebuilt bookshelves that you acquire from IBM or other sources, or build a bookshelf search index using BookManager BUILD/MVS or BookManager BUILD/VM.  READ for Windows provides a bookshelf search index for the prebuilt bookshelf that contains READ for Windows documentation.


The character used to substitute for unknown or unspecified characters or words in a search word or phrase.  An asterisk (*) is an example of a wildcard character. If you search for color* you could find colorful, colors, coloring.  A question mark (?) used as a wildcard represents only one letter.  In this case, you would only find colors.


Boolean operators (and, or, butnot) are used between words or phrases to make your search more precise.


The color refiner box shows shades of colors available to you on your system.  Select shades by dragging the cursor to an area of color that you want and clicking mouse button 1. Use the keyboard to adjust the number for hue and saturation.


Portrait is the way we typically print text; the paper is taller than it is wide.


With Landscape orientation, the text is printed sideways on the page; the paper is wider than it is tall.


A picture that is displayed in the topic text rather than in a separate window.


The name of a book or bookshelf is not the same as the title of the book or bookshelf.  The name of a book or bookshelf is one of the following:

•	The file name of the book or bookshelf

•	An 8-character name that is assigned to the book or bookshelf when the book or bookshelf is created.


When you associate a file with an application, you automatically start the application when you open the file. Associating book or bookshelf files (any file with a file extension of .BOO or .BKS) with READ for Windows enables you to:

•	Open that book or bookshelf directly from Microsoft Windows File Manager

•	Open and print that book by dragging it from Windows File Manager to Windows Print Manager.

Search Operators

The following buttons are available to use in your search. They are used between words or phrases to make your search more precise.  The first three are Boolean operators.

 	Inserts a space and & operator (and) to the left of the insertion point or to the left of the selected word or phrase.  This searches for words or phrases on both sides of the symbol.

 	Inserts a space and | operator (or) to the left of the insertion point or to the left of the selected word or phrase.  This searches for at least one of the words or phrases connected by |.

 	Inserts a space and ! operator (butnot) to the left of the insertion point or to the left of the selected word or phrase.  In this search, the word or phrase to the left of the symbol must be present in the topic, and the word or phrase to the right must not be present.

 	Inserts two single quotation marks around the insertion point or on either side of the selected word or phrase. Quotation marks are valid symbols only when used with symbols that are used as search operators to prevent the symbol from being translated as a search operator.  For example, in searching for  Jack & Jill, you need to put quotation marks around the & to get the phrase.  Otherwise you will get occurrences for Jack  and occurrences for Jill because it will interpret the  & as a Boolean operator without the quotation marks.

 Exception: When you are using an apostrophe in your search text, you need to enter two apostrophes to distinguish the apostrophe from a search operator.  If you are looking for  Marvin's truck, you need to enter Marvin''s truck .

 	Inserts left and right parentheses around the insertion point or on either side of the selected word or phrase.  This is used to group words around the Boolean operators.  This works similar to mathematical equations in which the search looks for the word or phrase in parentheses first.  See the Online Reference for detailed information.

 	Inserts a comma to the left of the insertion point or to the right of the selected word or phrase.  This is a phrase separator.

 	Inserts an asterisk to the left of the insertion point or to the right of the selected word or phrase.  This works as a wildcard.

 	Inserts a question mark to the left of the insertion point or to the right of the selected word or phrase. This works like a wildcard except that it represents only one character.

If your search request contains one of these operators, be sure to enclose it in quotation marks so that READ for Windows does not interpret them as symbols.
