E-raamatute vaatur

calibre sisaldab sisseehitatud e-raamatute vaaturit, mis suudab avada kõiki levinumaid e-raamatute formaate. E-raamatute vaatur on väga kohandatav ja paljude võimalustega.

E-raamatute vaaturi käivitamine

You can view any of the books in your calibre library by selecting the book and pressing the View button. This will open up the book in the E-book viewer. You can also launch the E-book viewer by itself from the Start menu in Windows. On macOS, you can pin it to the dock and launch it from there. On Linux you can use its launcher in the desktop menus or run the command ebook-viewer.

E-raamatus liikumine

You can „turn pages“ in a book by either:

• Clicking in the left or right margin or the page with the mouse
• Pressing the spacebar, page up, page down or arrow keys
• On a touchscreen tapping on the text or swiping left and right

You can access the viewer controls by either:

• Right clicking on the text
• Pressing the Esc or Menu keys
• On a touchscreen by tapping the top 1/3rd or the screen

The viewer has two modes, „paged“ and „flow“. In paged mode the book content is presented as pages, similar to a paper book. In flow mode the text is presented continuously, like in a web browser. You can switch between them using the viewer Preferences under Page layout or by pressing the ctrl+m key.

Järjehoidjad

When you are in the middle of a book and close the viewer, it will remember where you stopped reading and return there the next time you open the book. You can also set bookmarks in the book by using the Bookmarks button in the viewer controls or pressing ctrl+b. When viewing EPUB format books, these bookmarks are actually saved in the EPUB file itself. You can add bookmarks, then send the file to a friend. When they open the file, they will be able to see your bookmarks. You can turn off this behavior in the Miscellaneous section of the viewer preferences.

Sisukord

Kui loetav raamat sisaldab sisukorda, saad seda näha, klõpsates nupul Sisukord. See toob esile loendi raamatus olevatest sektsioonidest. Nendel klõpsates saad minna otse sellele raamatu osale.

Asukoha järgi liikumine

E-books, unlike paper books, have no concept of pages. You can refer to precise locations in e-books using the Go to → Location functionality in the viewer controls.

You can use this location information to unambiguously refer to parts of the books when discussing it with friends or referring to it in other works. You can enter these locations under Go to → Location in the viewer controls.

If you click on links inside the e-book to take you to different parts of the book, such as an endnote, you can use the Back and Forward buttons in the top left corner of the viewer controls. These buttons behave just like those in a web browser.

Viidete režiim

calibre also has a very handy Reference mode. You can turn it on by clicking the Reference mode button in the viewer controls. Once you do this, every mouse over a paragraph, calibre will display a unique number made up of the section and paragraph numbers.

You can use this number to unambiguously refer to parts of the books when discussing it with friends or referring to it in other works. You can enter these numbers in the Go to function to navigate to a particular reference location.

Lugemiskogemuse väljanägemise kohandamine

You can change font sizes on the fly by using Font size in the viewer controls or Ctrl++ or Ctrl+- or holding the Ctrl key and using the mouse wheel.

Colors can be changed in the Colors section of the viewer preferences.

You can change the number of pages displayed on the screen as well as page margins in Page layout in the viewer preferences.

You can display custom headers and footers such as time left to read, current chapter title, book position, etc. via the Headers and footers section of the viewer preferences.

More advanced customization can be achieved by the Styles settings. Here you can specify a background image to display under the text and also a stylesheet you can set that will be applied to every book. Using it you can do things like change paragraph styles, text justification, etc. For examples of custom stylesheets used by calibre’s users, see the forums.

Sõnastikust otsimine

You can look up the meaning of words in the current book by opening the Lookup/search panel via the viewer controls. Then simply double click on any word and its definition will be displayed in the lookup panel.

Teksti ja piltide kopeerimine

Teksti ja pilte saad valida, lohistades hiirega üle sisu ja seejärel paremklõpsates ja valides „Kopeeri“ lõikelauale kopeerimiseks. Kopeeritud materjali saab teise programmi kleepida lihttekstina ja piltidena.

Non re-flowable content

Some books have very wide content that content be broken up at page boundaries. For example tables or <pre> tags. In such cases, you should switch the viewer to flow mode by pressing Ctrl+m to read this content. Alternately, you can also add the following CSS to the Styling section of the viewer preferences to force the viewer to break up lines of text in <pre> tags:

code, pre { white-space: pre-wrap }
