1 Preface
Boox, presented by Onyx International, a group of professionals who dedicate
themselves in designing state-of-the-art reading terminal.
The beauty of the Boox is embodied in both its simplicity and its power. As we are going
to show you, Boox is an open and flexible platform for both consumers and content
providers.
Boox is powered by an 8-level grayscale e-ink screen that looks and feels like paper.
Passive lighting and diffuse surface relaxes your eyes and reduces eye strain. The
hand-writing system lets you take notes while reading and sketch up ideas that happen
to emerge. Boox takes full advantage of new-generation e-ink screens: extremely low
power consumption. Each full charge can sustain a few weeks' reading. By reducing
paper consumption while providing a realistic paper-like reading experience, digital
content helps to protect the environment without sacrificing convenience or life style.
Boox comes with viewers for most popular ebook and image formats, including PDF,
HTML, CHM, EPub, TXT, and MobiPocket(NON-DRM). For content partners, we also
provide support for custom formats and digital rights management solutions. All of our
viewers have standard features such as layout management, font adjustment, full text
search, zooming, and page flow.
For a next-generation information device, connectivity is essential. The user can
connect to the Internet with build-in WiFi or other add-on modules to download new
content or just surf the web. The web browser on Boox uses WebKit, the same software

engine that powers desktop browsers such as Safari and Chrome, customized for the
e-ink screen.
Boox, the new reading experience.
