To move to a specific page:

1

Choose Go To Page from the Book menu.

The Go to Page dialog box appears.

2

Type a page number and click Go To.

By the way: If you have an extended keyboard, you can also jump directly
to the beginning of a document by pressing Home and to the end by
pressing End.

If you have created a table of contents, you can also use it to go to specific
pages. For more information about creating and using a table of contents, see
Chapter 4, “Creating a Table of Contents.”

Copying and pasting

You can copy text and graphics from other documents on your computer and
paste them into a book. Before pasting, click in the book to place the insertion
point where you want the copy to appear. For more information about placing
graphics in your book, see “Bringing Graphics into a Book” later in this
chapter. For information about adding text, see the next section, “Bringing
Documents into a Book.”

Bringing documents into a book

After opening a book window, you can build books quickly by adding
documents created with other applications. If you have documents such as
sales forms, price tables, or product listings created on your computer, you
can add them to a book without re-entering information. The added
document is automatically reformatted by the Newton Press application,
preserving as much of the original format characteristics as possible.

IMPORTANT

If you are going to add a document to a Newton Press book that

will require many formatting changes—for example, many changes of fonts
or adjustments to tables—you may find it easiest to use the formatting
features of the original application to change the document before adding it to
your Newton Press book.
