Operating the Controls

You will sometimes see a menu item that is gray. This means that you cannot choose that
menu item. The choice might not be relevant; for example, you cannot change the font for
a PDF file, so the
Text font
menu item is gray. This can also indicate that an operation is in
progress. For example, when your
NOOK
is automatically checking for new content in My
B&N Library, the
Check for new B&N content
menu item is gray until it has completed the
operation.
