Flowing Text & Original Pages
Books are available in two viewing modes. In Flowing text mode, the text of the book is wrapped
according to Sero 7’s screen size, which allows you to read most books clearly even on a screen that is
smaller than the original physical book. In original pages mode, the original scanned image of the book
is displayed, which is useful when viewing on a larger screen, or when the contents of the book do not
render well in Flowing text mode.
