how to see two pages at once in kindle for mac

If the lines are long it's harder to find the next line quickly given how the text is typically printed. People can read the material faster and easier with columns because every time the reader's eye gets to the end of a line they have to find the start of the next line. The answer presented to us, is that it's cheaper that way. The question is why do newspapers and magazines-which have book sized pages-still print the text in columns. We studied this in journalism classes a long time ago. But whatever the reason, multiple columns are the rule, not the exception.īTW, I did some screen shots of my 10' tablet last year: Why have 2 columns? Well, why do you see multiple columns in large books like encyclopedias, dictionaries, etc? They're not asking for 2 pages, they're asking for 2 columns. It's certainly doable on the DX, the text is readable (on the 6', it would indeed be too small), but I don't see the reason for reading like this. I did a test with the attached mock image (smallest font size on my DX). Is it because some people are too used to reading physical books, so they absolutely have to see two pages? Is it because there's too much text per line when reading in landscape mode? Yeah, I'm not one of those who posted before but reading this, I can't help but wonder: why display two pages when you read only one?Ĭan anyone who actually knows answer this, please? It's like, if I were a kid asking ' why does fire burn?' and you would tell me ' oh, what an idiot, don't you know anything?!'. You talk about enlightenment, so how about you enlighten us by actually answering the question instead of insulting us? I don't think asking it makes anyone a jerk. Perhaps you narrowminded jerks should enlighten your horizons. For some people it might be a good option on a 6' screen too. I had one and it made landscape mode much better.

Even on a 7' screen like the Sony PRS-900 two page display is nice. Especially if you own a DX as landscape is so big that two pages would be a great option.
