    two requests:
    1. one of our customer wants to customise an order confirmation adding the Doc ID of the purchased ebook. I have an older list (attached) of variables for at least order confirmations. Can you give me the variable for the doc ID, this is missing in he list (should be something like

  2. Can ProQuest Consider Adobe Readers Read OutLoud as a Screen Reader to use with Content Using Adobe Digital Edition

    Good Morning,

    My name is Jane Bollard, and I am a TasTAFE Librarian based in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia.

    I am writing to ProQuest regarding accessibility to your eBook content using AdobeDigital Editions 3.0.

    A read of your HELP documentation states that JAWS and NVDA are the denoted screen readers to use in conjunction with Adobe Digital Editions 3.30.

    These products were designed for blind or vision impaired users. The necessary skills to use either software might be complex for persons with a specific learning disorder where working memory is a primary symptom. For this type of cohort, a product such…

  3. put files in Bookshelf in alphabetical order

    Please put files in the user's Bookshelf in alphabetical order. Presently, if the user has a long list of files in their bookshelf, they can not be put in alphabetical order. It is such a waste of time to try to find the file you're looking for when it is buried within a list of unalphabetized files.

  4. Add promo pricing deadlines in LibCentral

    Waited to purchase an eBook until July 1 so funds would fall within the new FY. However, we did not know that there was a current promo on the pricing that ended June 30th. Today I logged in to LibCentral to purchase the eBook and the price was double. Add a note when there is a promo and when the promo expires. If I would have known this, I would have purchased the eBook back in June.

    DRM free search filters are already available on both Ebook Central and LibCentral.

  6. Add clear 'x' or delete all 'x' in the search box

    A delete all 'X' in the search box would allow users who input the name of a book or several search terms to more quickly delete all text.

  7. More granular zoom settings in reader

    The default zoom in the reader is too large, but when zooming out just once, it becomes too small. It would be nice to have more granular zoom settings (or to be able to select a percentage or from a slider?).
