Selecting a book page's objects

A book page can contain different objects. These objects are opened in different ways in the appropriate programs.

Modes

Modes cause buttons to be displayed which allow the respective mode to be invoked. This mode is then launched in the trainer. Terminating a mode returns you to the book reader.

Media files

A book page can present you with various media files for audio or video content.
Appropriate programs are required for playing back media files. Windows Media Player should be installed as standard on your Windows operating system. For other formats (Flash, RealOne, QuickTime) it may be necessary to install a play back application. These applications are freely available on the Internet; please refer to your administrator in this regard if you need to.

Documentation

You can call different documentation types via the book pages. For example, these are files in Word or PowerPoint format as well as HTML pages or documents in PDF format. When a document is selected, it is opened directly in an associated application.
Please therefore bear in mind that the relevant application is required on your system to view the format in question. For example, you need a PDF reader to display PDFs or Microsoft Office to display the appropriate formats.
