Bookmark:
The Bookmark gadget allows you to save your place as you browse through the rest of the document as well as go to any bookmark you had previously placed.
Selecting the "Mark" gadget allows you to set a bookmark for the current page. Marking multiple pages allows for easy cross-referencing during a reading session, especially when reading large documents. For your convenience, we have included five
preset names. Simply double-click on the name you want and EasyReader will mark the page and return you to Reading mode. Should you wish to input a name of your choice, type it into the text gadget and hit the "Return" key or click on "OK".
Selecting the "Goto" gadget will allow you to move to any bookmark that has already been placed. Placed bookmarks will appear with an asterix(*) next to their name, as well as the page number they are marking. Simply double-click on the bookmark
you want, or click once on the bookmark and select "OK". EasyReader will flip to the selected page and return you to Reading mode.
To exit from Bookmark mode, hit the "Esc" key, click on "Cancel", or select the Page gadget up in the title bar.

Cut:
Clicking on this gadget will put EasyReader into Cut mode. With this mode, EasyReader will allow you to copy text from the document into other programs that support the clipboard device.
While holding down the left mouse button, highlight the text you wish to "cut", then release the left mouse button. The highlighted text will be copied into the clipboard, and can be retrieved by any program that supports use of the clipboard, such as the AmigaDOS shell, or any number of text editors, by selecting "Paste" from the menu or by typing "Right Amiga-v".
Using this gadget again before pasting the previous text into it's destination will overwrite the clipboard buffer.
