= 3. Using Sophie Server in Sophie Reader =

Sophie Server can open remote books as well as local books using Sophie Server. Presently, this only operates in demonstration mode; you need to be running a copy of Sophie Server to try this out. (See [wiki:ITERATION_11/Release/UserDocumentation/SophieServer/02_AdministeringSophieServer here] for information about running Sophie Server.) 

When Sophie Server is running, turn to the Server tab in the left flap in Sophie Reader. Select '''127.0.0.1:8003''' (the address for your local copy of Sophie Server) and click '''Toggle Selected'''. Sophie Reader will attempt to connect to the Sophie Server application; if it works, you'll get a message saying '''Successfully connected'''. Then click the '''Refresh''' button to see which books are on your Sophie Server. You should see something like this:

Double-click the name of a book in the bottom list to open it. It should open normally; it can be manipulated just like any other book.
