7. Flipbook Display Preference: This setting decides the display of the flipbook in the flipbook viewer.
- Automatic (Smart Display) is the default setting. It provides the best display solution based on your reader's screen size and your flipbook dimensions for improved readability.
- Single Page View always shows one page at a time, regardless of the device or browser size.
- Double Page View always shows two pages at a time, regardless of the device or browser size. We do not recommend this setting for flipbooks intended to be viewed on mobile devices.
