You hold the reader upright,and text is displayed in lines across the reading screen.PDF documents can support rotated pages, though this is not common and not especially usefulfor eBooks. In such a PDF, one or more pages (and possibly an entire document) can have pagesthat have been rotated 90 degrees clockwise, 90 degrees counterclockwise, or 180 degrees. YourNOOK doesn’t exactly support such documents, but it tries. It does not rotate the text but doesrotate any graphics.
