You can press the Next or Prev Page buttons to move forward or backward in your reading material and press the Back
button to retrace your steps on Kindle. The keyboard allows you to type text to search for words or for items in the Kindle
Store. The keyboard also allows you to create annotations while reading. All of these are covered in more detail later in this
guide.
Easy-to-Read Display
Kindle uses high-resolution display technology called electronic paper. It works using ink just like books and newspapers,
but it displays the ink particles electronically. The page flash you see when you turn the page is part of the ink placement
process.
The electronic paper display is reflective, which means unlike most displays, it can be read clearly even in bright sunlight.
Also, electronic paper does not need power to hold the ink in place which extends your Kindle battery life.
Choice of Text Size
To optimize your reading experience, Kindle provides a quick way to adjust the size of the reading text among six sizes to
fit your preference.
