4 WHAT IS DIGITAL EDITIONS?
Digital Editions
offers an engaging way to view and manage eBooks and other digital
publications. You can use it to download and purchase digital content, which can be read
both online and offline, transfer copy-protected eBooks from your computer to other
computers or devices, organise your eBooks into a custom library and annotate pages.
IMPORTANT
When you copy DRM books from the computer to the Reader, a
manifest.xml file
will be
created automatically. Do not delete the
manifest.xml
file as it is stores the copyright
information of the eBook and allows you to open the eBook on the Reader.

Installing Digital Editions on your computer
You can install
Digital Editions
on your computer in a number of different ways.

download process. The following is an example:
1
After you have purchased an item from the online store, click on the download link.

Your browser may prompt you for the application to open the file (which is a license for
the eBook and not the eBook itself).
