to see text better. If you are zoomed out so that you can see the entire page of a document, then
you can turn pages using the Navigation Pad in the same way as when you read a book. Pressing
left or up takes you back a page, while pressing right or down pages forward.
If you are zoomed in and the document page takes up more space than the screen shows, then the
Navigation Pad lets you move the document page around instead.
Within a document, you can use the right- and left- directions on the Navigation Pad to go to the
next and previous pages, respectively. To turn the page, you must either zoom out and then turn
the page, or you can use the Navigation Pad to move to the edge of the page and then page
forward or back (you must be at the left edge of the page to go back, or the right edge to go
forward).
