The Books and Notes sections are very similar with respect to their structure and
behavior. They include:

A header which contains controls to change the sort criterion and order and to
select items, an information label on the current filter and the number of avail-
able elements;

A central area, which contains a list of items. In the Books section, the way
these items are displayed can be changed, from a list with detailed information
to a simpler view with only covers and titles;

A toolbar at the bottom;

A retractable filters panel on the right that allows direct access by collection,
tag, author, format ...

section

2.3 Classifying and indexing the books


Bookari: User Manual | 15

You can organize and classify your contents in order to quickly retrieve a specific ele-
ment thanks to two slightly different tools: tags and collections. Both are additional
pieces of information (meta-data) associated to a book or a note:

A tag is an arbitrary string label and can be associated with several elements;

A collection is like a tag, an arbitrary string label and can be associated with
several elements. However:

o Unlike tags, a collection can contain sub-collections: collections al-


low to create arbitrarily nested structures

o An element (book or note) can be inserted into several collections.

Like other metadata, tags and collections can be renamed (see Using filters below).

2.3.1 How to add tags to a book or note?

Tags are created on the fly, when they are associated to an element. Managing the tags
associated to an element is straightforward:

Open the Tag Edition view:

From the Book details, tapping on the Tag button

From the toolbar, after having selected, at least one item in the list, tapping on

the Tag button

Android devices only Using the overflow button on each item and se-
lecting the Tag menu

The tag editor is displayed


Bookari: User Manual | 16

Enter the tag name. While you type, Bookari Reader suggests existing tag
names. You can select one of them to use an existing tag, or type a new tag
name.

Click on the Add button

Click on the Close button to validate and save

The new tag will be added to the items tag list

To delete a tag, simply click on the tag name.

2.3.2 How to arrange books or notes in collections?

Open the Collections Edition view:

From the Book details, tapping on the Arrange button

From the toolbar, after having selected, at least one item in the list, tapping on

the Arrange button


Bookari: User Manual | 17

Android devices only Using the overflow button on each item and se-
lecting the Arrange menu

The Collections editor is displayed

1. In the main screen, when you are in list view or details view, check the boxes
corresponding to the books or notes that you want to add to a certain collec-
tion. Then:

Tap on the icon in the toolbar or in the menu


displayed through the overflow button on android devices

2. A window opens where you can choose the collection or sub-collection where
you want to add the items, in the collapsible tree of collections.

3. In this window, you can also create the collection on the fly thanks to the

button.

2.3.3 How to manage my collections?

While tags are created only on the fly when you associate them with elements, collec-
tions can be also created beforehand, before associating elements to them. There are
several possible ways to create a collection:

By pressing the icon near the My collections label in the left column
of the Books or Notes sections on tablets, or in the Filter/Collection panel
on smartphones
Bookari: User Manual | 18

o On smartphones, swipe from right to left or tap on the

button in the header, or press the back button


of the phone to show the Filter panel. By default,
the filter panel opens on the Collections filter.

On Android only: In the Collections Manager screen, which you access by tap-

ping on the icon:

Android iPad & IPhone

Then by pressing the Plus icon next to My collections in the top right side of the
screen.

In both cases, a popup window opens where you can type the name of your collection or
sub-collection and select its parent collection in the Parent spinner (by default, the par-
ent is My collections). You save your new collection by pressing the Create button.

When you are in the Library Manager screen, the default parent collection is the current
collection (colored bar on the left edge of the thumbnail in the tree of collections). If you
want to create a sub-collection with a different parent from the default one, you can
change it with the Parent spinner.

Another way to create a sub-collection in the Library Manager is to check the box next to
the desired parent collection and to tap on the down arrow besides to open the drop-
down menu where you can select Create sub-collection:
Bookari: User Manual | 19

You exit the Collections Manager by tapping on the < icon on the top left of the screen.

2.4 Classifying and indexing the notes

The way to do it is the same as for books (see 2.3 Classifying and indexing the
books )

2.5 Browsing the lists by using filters

Filters are available in the Books and Notes sections. By default, the selected filter is
Collections.

To select a filter, tap on Collections on the top of the right side panel in the main
screen of the section, and choose in the drop-down list.

The filters are different in the Books and Notes sections:

In Books: Collections, Tags, Authors, Publishers , Series ,


Languages , Formats , Ratings, Folder ;

In Notes: Collections, Tags, Book, Type.

The following metadata types can be renamed directly:

Tags

Authors

Publishers

Series

o Please note that for creating series you must fill the two input areas.

To rename such metadata, follow these steps:


Bookari: User Manual | 20

1. On a phone, drag from right to left to show the Filters side panel

2. Select one of the aforementioned metadata types by clicking on the Collec-


tions label at the top of the panel

3. Long press on the metadata you want to rename

4. A popup appears and allows you to rename the metadata

5. If the new name matches an existing one, both will be merged.

2.6 How to delete items in lists?

Select the items to remove with a long press on an item to enter selection
mode, then with a tap on other items to select / deselect or with the select
all button displayed in the header bar after at least one item is selected;

Click on the icon in the toolbar;

Confirm.

2.6.1 How to search items in lists?

Click on the standard Search button of your device (some devices do not
have such a button) or on the Search button in the toolbar (or in the upper
right corner on some devices). The search panel appears as shown below:

Enter the word you are looking for;

Results appear gradually as you type the word ;


Bookari: User Manual | 21

2.7 Books: managing your bookshelf

The module (Books) lists all the EPUB and PDF documents present in your bookshelf.

By default, all these electronic documents are listed with some information:

Title or File name, Author, Addition Date or Last Access, Expiration date for
eBooks

Tags (Please refer to the What are Tags and how to use them for more in-
formation about Tags)

Reading completion rate (based on the last page read)

Rating

Apart from this default view, other views are available:

List

List with details (the default view)

Thumbnails (small / medium / large)

2.7.1 How to read an eBook or a PDF document?

Please refer to 3.1 Reading PDF / EPUB eBooks or documents to discover more about
the Reading functions.

2.7.2 How to share an eBook or a PDF document?

With Bookari Cloud: please refer to section 4.6 Sharing books and social
reading

Through my other applications: please refer to 3.2 Sharing books, selected


text and annotations through my other applications.
Bookari: User Manual | 22

NOTA:

When importing eBooks, tags are automatically extracted from the eBook
metadata.

Modifications on tags will not update the eBook metadata.

2.7.3 How to change the cover or a metadata (title,


authors,) of an item

A double tap on a book in the list opens the Book Information window.

If you tap on a label followed by the icon you can edit it.

A tap on the cover image displays it in a full screen which allows you to replace
it with another one to choose in your own collection of images.
Bookari: User Manual | 23

2.7.4 How to reattach a file to a book

When the file of a book has been accidentally deleted from the device or moved to an-
other folder with an external file manager, its thumbnail gets displayed in lighter colors
on your Books.

You can associate a file to the book on the Books again:

either with a long press on the thumbnail to open the book information window
and press the Search button near the access path of the previous file

or by simply opening the book and press Search in the popup. Then you can
navigate to the new location of the file on the device (in case of a deleted file
youve downloaded the file again somewhere) and select it.

It is important to do this way instead of re-importing the book in the app because re-
importing would only create a second entry on the Books, having no connection with the
previous bookmarks, notes and highlights.

When you need to move the file of a book present in your app, you can do it with a dou-
ble tap press on the thumbnail to open its information window and by pressing the Move
button near the access path of the file in this window.

There is also a dynamic collection called Without files for the books that are non-
synchronized and without their book file, what helps you to detect them.

2.8 Notes: managing your notes and annotations

Bookari Reader allows creating standalone text or sketched notes. They can be
attached to a page or a highlight in a document, or simply standalone .

It also allows storing words that have been looked up into a dictionary into a
personal lexicon . The entries of this lexicon are also considered as annota-
tions.
Bookari: User Manual | 24

The Notes tab lists all the highlights, notes and annotations as well as the
words from the personal lexicon.

All the notes are listed with some information:

Title

Creation date and time

Tags (Please refer to 2.3 Classifying and indexing the books for more infor-
mation about Tags)

Page number if the note is attached to a book

A thumbnail for sketch notes :

An avatar icon if the annotation was not created by you but one of your con-
tacts

2.8.1 Managing your list of notes

In addition to the common options described in 2.2 Common commands for books and
annotations lists, a few additional functions are available in the toolbar of the Notes
tab. Once again, the available options displayed depend on whether there are selected
items or not.

cover into your personal Bookshelf.

3 What can I do with Bookari Reader

3.1 Reading PDF / EPUB eBooks or documents

In the Books section, click on the document you want to read. It will be opened on the
last read page or on the first page if not opened before.

3.1.1 Browsing through the document pages

There are different ways to browse the document pages:

Swipe the current page

Touch the left or right margins

Use the scrollbar (to display it, press the Menu button of your device, or simply
touch the center of the page)

Click on the current page number to open the Go to page popup; enter the
desired page number in the popup window; click on OK

Touch the icon to go to back or to go to the next page in the navi-


gation history.

3.1.2 Setting the display options with gestures

Some display options are controlled with finger gestures on the page:

Swipe up / down to increase / decrease the font size (for EPUB or reflowed
PDF)
Bookari: User Manual | 29

Pinch to zoom (for PDF)

Double-tap on a block of text in a PDF document to zoom in / zoom out and


adjust the zoom level so that the width of the block fits the entire display

Drag the page with your finger to move around (in a PDF)

Swipe up/down on the left border to increase/decrease the screen brightness

The Display Settings icon controls other display options, as described below.

3.1.2.1 Tips to read PDF documents

When reading a PDF document, there are a few tips to know:

In "Horizontal" mode, you can turn pages using left to right swipe gesture. A
fast and long gesture will start a fast scroll, whereas a simple tap will turn only
1 page.

In "Vertical scroll" and Auto scroll modes, you can continuously scroll using a
vertical swipe gesture

In Horizontal scroll mode, when you zoom on a page, the next page is not
zoomed. It allows you to quickly find the interest areas of the new page.

In Vertical Scroll mode, the zoom level is always remembered when you move
from page to page

An interesting combination: double-tap on a paragraph to adjust the width


(remove the margins), and then use vertical scrolling. If you don't like the fact
that the Horizontal scrolling mode "forgets" the zoom when changing page, this
combination may be the good one for you.
