Questions about eBook

[hajime_android]

Hello, I am considering to buy Google ebook. I clicked on a sample button and the Google ebook was launched by some kind of browser. I tried to select a word or a series of word using the S pen on the Note but this function did not work. I have a few questions:

1. Do I need to have internet connection in order to view Google ebook? I wonder if it will be downloaded and saved to the Note PRO locally.
2. How come the S pen features do not work on Google ebook? Any way to make them work?
3. If I want to underline, highlight, annotate text and pictures using different colors, what can I do?
4. Can I convert Google ebook into pdf format so that I can view and annotate using ezpdf viewer?


Thanks.

1. No it's downloaded and stored locally.
2,3,4. I'm not sure but I'd guess it has to do with copyright?

I've never used S-pen but I believe its special features are proprietary to Samsung apps only, so anything that isn't Samsung won't make full use of it beyond being a basic stylus. As for converting purchased Google ebooks to PDF, likely no legal way because of the DRM, Digital Restrictions Management. And discussion of anything illegal is prohibited by forum rules and DMCA.
