Working with Pagination on a Windows Mobile
When you first read a book using Microsoft Reader, the software paginates
the eBook for you: as you read your eBook, Microsoft Reader software determines
the length of the eBook according to the current font
size setting
and updates the .EBO file for the opened book
with that information. If you hard-reset your Windows Mobile, Microsoft Reader assumes
you're opening an eBook for
the first time, and the software paginates the eBook for you.
If you open an eBook for the first time, and
turn off the device while Reader is performing background pagination, you'll
receive an error, "Microsoft
Reader is no longer able to access this book."
Here's how to fix the problem:
-
Shut down Microsoft Reader:
a.
From the Start Menu, tap "Settings"
b.
Select the System tab.
c.
Select the Memory icon.
d.
Tap the Running Program tab.
e.
Highlight Microsoft
Reader on the Running Program list.
f.
Tap the Stop button.
- Tap OK.
- Start File Explorer
- Navigate to My Documents/Annotations
-
Select and delete the .EBO file for
the problem title. The correct .EBO file is the file that begins with the
eBook title. If more than one .EBO
file exists for the problem title, select and delete each one.
-
Start
Microsoft Reader again.
-
Open the eBook. Let the device remain turned on,
allowing Microsoft Reader to repaginate until it completes. This process
should not
take more than
a few minutes. Microsoft Reader needs to perform this operation
just once for each eBook.
How do I know if Reader is still handling background pagination on
the title?
- Open the eBook in question.
- Begin reading the content.
-
On the bottom of the Reader page, tap and hold
the page number for a couple of seconds — then release it. The Riffle
Control should be displayed: its appearance may
take a second or two.
-
The Riffle Control shows you where
you are in the eBook. The leftmost number is the first page of the eBook;
the rightmost number is the
last page of the
eBook. If the rightmost number is displayed in red, Microsoft Reader
is not done with background pagination. If the rightmost number is displayed
in black, Reader has completed pagination.
