How do I view text in long ePub chapters?

Hi! I've created a couple of ePub books with a page area of 800 x 600. Each chapter is short and so fits on the page area. If the text does overrun slightly I click the bottom right corner of the page to make it bigger, I see the text and edit it if need be, then I drag the bottom right corner back into place (sorry I don't know the correct terminology.)
However I'm now creating a new ePub book that has much longer chapters that have text and images and I want to be able to easily read everything. Dragging the bottom right hand corner to be able to view the content will be cumbersome. Is there a better way to do things?

Thank you Bob. I copied over my whole Word doc into Indesign and each page flowed into the next. I set the ToC to chapter title style headings. Cheers!
But a new problem! Now when I try to export the file Indesign just hangs and cannot export it. I went back to an earlier version of the file without the ToC and it still doesn't work although different Indesign files export correctly. Could this may be a bug in the software?   I would start from scratch but after I set the text & paragraph styles I adjusted the text for about 65 pages and don't want to lose this. Looking on the forum I saw a person with a similar problem but that was related to links. I just have a couple of basic links and even with them removed it still doesn't work.
I'm thinking of creating a new doc with separate chapters then copying and pasting text from this Indesign file into the new one but I don't want to lose my formating.  How do i import textand para settings from one file to another?

    how do I copy text from an epub book?

    Just some observations.
    PDF page content that is an image (and music notes may very well be that in a given PDF) then all that can be exported is the image.
    Only an image editor can "edit" such eh.
    As to textual content - once in TXT, RTF, DOC or DOCX yes, expect to have to do "cleanup"
    Of course there's the old school alternative that is always available.
    Paper copy beside you as you transcribe to a fresh word processing file.
    Be well...

    Please help.... When I look at all phone lines text messages online through my account. I can see the numbers that are texting but I need to see the content on what is being said. I notice to the bottom left hand side of this it says Download Details to Spreadsheet. Is that going to bring up what is being said? I cant download it for some reason. Please help. How can I view what is being said through these text messages? thanks

    here is how I would do it:
    1) convert the input (short text) table to string
    2) apply this code to the string:
    DATA: lv_text TYPE text40,
              lv_length TYPE i.
    WHILE lv_string IS NOT INITIAL.
      lv_length = 39.
      lv_text = lv_string.
      WHILE lv_text+lv_length(1) NE space AND lv_length GE 0.
           lv_text = lv_text(lv_length).
           lv_length = lv_length - 1.
      ENDWHILE.
      IF lv_length GE 0.
         APPEND lv_text TO lt_short_text.
      ENDIF.
       lv_length = lv_length + 1.
       SHIFT lv_string LEFT BY lv_length PLACES.

  • How to get level text in long document

    Is there an easy way to ensure text is level (ie on same horizontal line) when looking across columns, spreads and even throughout a long book style document?

    Depends on wheter you have paragraphs that use different leading values mixed together. If the leading is the same throughout, the the text should align automatically.
    If not, you probably want to set up a baseline grid. You do that in the preferences. Set the spacing to the value of the leading for your body text and add align to grid to the style definition. You probably don't want to use align to grid with other styles whose leading is different because the grid willovveride the leading value and you will wind up with wider line spacing than you expect. Adding space before to something like a heading can help to mitigate extra space between the heading and the following text.

  • How do I make phone vibrate longer for a text message?

    I have an iphone 4s and I am wondering how I can set the vibrate longer for a text message.  I have it turned on.  I have set the vibrate to "Rapid".
    I vibrates long for a phone call, but I want it to vibrate longer than a short burst, which is repeated later, on a text message.
    Can anyone help?

    You can't.

    How can I view my pictures that were backed up to iTunes? I no longer have an apple product but need to view the pictures for very important reasons.

    If you mean backed up as part of an iPhone backup in iTunes?  If so, you would have to use 3rd party software to extract them from the backup, such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

  • When I view the music on my iPhone in iTunes, how do I view this by album, rather than in a long list of songs?

    When I view the music on my iPhone in iTunes, how do I view this by album, rather than in a long list of songs?  When I view the music stored on my iMac, I get a choice to view by Songs, Artists, Albums, Composers, etc.  But I don't get any choice with the music on my iPhone.
    Its really hard to manage the music on my iPhone.  I want to quickly remove albums and add new ones.
    Is there a solution that I haven't seen?

    Create a playlist, add/delete albums and sync this playlist.
    You don't need to manually manage the iPhone music to do this.

  • How can I view the videos of adobe flash player that apple no longer support?

        How can I view the videos from the internet and networking of adobe flash player that apple no longer support?

    Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
    The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • How do I backup and view text messages from my iphone 4?

    How do I backup and view text messages from my iphone 4? I want to know where and how to backup and view text messages and all other personal files, including voicemail, recent calls, etc. from my iphone. Is this function in iTunes and/or does iTunes already backup this stuff when I sync?
    I really just want the answer to how and where this works.
    Thanks

    Apple provides functionality in the backup done via iTunes to backup the device and text messages.  There is no functionality to view the text messages on the computer.
    About iOS backups
    Other programs are available which can extract text messages from the device or the iTunes created backup and then be viewed on the computer.  To my knowledge, no program exists which can force backed up text messages into the device once they've been removed.
