Daily Camera (Boulder)

E-edition is nice, but has bugs that need fixing

-

I have subscribed to the Daily

Camera since I moved to Boulder over fifty years ago. Most of that time, I received the paper edition, but more recently, only the electronic edition. Within the last few weeks, you made a major change in the electronic edition. For the most part, the change is a great improvemen­t. I particular­ly like the ability to click on an article and have it selected in its own window.

Also, in the upper left-hand corner of the selected window are nine icons. Of these nine icons, seven of them seem to be very pertinent for using the article.

The first icon is for email. I assume it is for emailing the article to a friend. That would be great, except that it does not seem to work; maybe it has not been implemente­d yet. This capability would be really useful; I hope you implement it soon.

The next two icons are Facebook and Twitter; I assume these work, but I do not use Facebook or Twitter.

Icon numbers four and five are not really related to using the article; they simply take you to the Comics or the Puzzles. I do not mind them; they just seem out of place.

Icon number six is for printing, so this is really pertinent and useful. The problem is that it has a bug. If you print an article of more than one page, it blanks out the top 95% of a text line at every page junction.

The last three icons, Enlarge Text, Reduce Text and the Read Aloud Tool, work well and as expected.

Would you please, please fix the two problems? Implement the Email feature and fix the printer bug.
