Images

When you press and hold on an image and then release, a magnifying glass icon displays on
the image and a series of options display below the image. Options include Highlight, Note,
Share and Search. Tap the ellipsis (...) to view more options, such as Report Content Error.
To increase the size of an image in a Kindle book for easier viewing, tap the magnifying glass
icon. To return the image to normal size, tap on it.
For selected Kindle books, you can zoom in further by placing two fingers close together on
the centre of the screen and moving them apart. To zoom out, place two fingers slightly apart
on the screen and pinch them together. While zoomed, drag your finger across the image to
move to the area of interest. To return to reading, tap the X in the top right corner of the
image.

Tables

Enhanced viewing is available for tables that are interactive, enabling you to both pan and
zoom. Tap on the table to display the panning and magnifying glass icons.
To pan, tap the panning icon and then drag your finger across the screen in the direction you

your finger across the screen to select it. To edit the range of your highlight after you have
selected it, press and hold on the handle at the start or end of the highlight and drag your
finger across the screen to the desired location. For most device languages, handles only
appear when you have selected two or more words. A dialog box will appear with options to
highlight the text, add a note, share and more. To exit panning mode, tap the Done button.

Interacting with your documents

Your Kindle gives you access to features that are not available with printed materials, such as
instantly viewing word definitions, easy access to footnotes, and end-of-book actions. Just as
with a traditional book, you can also highlight favourite passages, add notes and create
bookmarks. Smart Lookup lets you select a word or multiple words and view a number of
options, such as Highlight, Note, Share, Search and X-Ray (if available). Information from X-
Ray, Wikipedia, the dictionary, Word Wise and Bing Translate is shown above or below your
selection. To switch between cards, simply swipe from side to side.
