I would like to share my experience with Infobase eBooks and to post a question. I did what Nevet suggested doing before we have a class. I overviewed the tutorial to learn more about how to use the Infobase eBooks platform. Actually liked it very much - a great resourse for students and teachers! I picked up Women's studies and opened the book by Janet Hubbard-Brown " Eleanor Roosevelt". Got involved into reading, and while reading it I noticed that the book is available in 2 formats: HTML and PDF. I know that PDF is great in using and printing forms, forms that need to be filled up and submitted would print properly without missing elements. E-books that might be printed are usually sent via this format to make sure that the reader sees what the author wrote. I was not able to print from PDF (tried different ways), while from HTML I was able to print easily. So my question is (could sound stupid, but...): why do we have eBooks in both- PDF and HTML, and why wasn't I able to print from PDF format? Thank you in advance! Tatyana

Thanks for sharing this interesting piece with us Tanya. PDF and HTML formats are offered for individual preferences. In order to print pdf files, you need to have Adobe software; check your computer to see if it has Adobe software. No question is a bad question :-)
