I tried an emagazine last year and could do nothing with it, even a simple cut and paste failed. No problem to view or read-- and thats it

Right click on the ebookname.exe file and point to Winzip in the popup.
Select Add to ebookname.exe from the next popup.
That will start Winzip select I agree and then OK.
You should now have a zipped file in the same directory as the original ebookname.exe file.

If you do zip and send it, can the other person open it? I haven't had any such luck
