Copying and Printing From an Ebook

The DRM restrictions on each ebook in the library restrict the amount of content that you can print and copy when you read an ebook online. Similar restrictions apply when you read ebooks offline.

When you read an ebook online you can copy the contents of a selection to the clipboard in preparation for pasting it into another document. You can also print selections from the ebook. The EBL records your use of these features for an ebook and the reader prevents you from printing and copying when you have reached the respective limits.

To help you see how much of your allowance you have left, look at the printing and copying gauges in the online reader toolbar. Each dot on the gauges represents 20% of your allowance. As you use the features, the dots change colour.
