Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for revealing extra margin area for paginated digital content, referred to herein as an extra margins mode. For example, the extra margins mode may be used to reveal/expose extra margin area (galley area) at the perimeter of one or more pages of an eBook or a photo of a photo album. Once galley area is exposed, a user can add content to the galley area, such as annotations using a stylus. In some cases, the extra margins mode may be configured to expose galley area for one or more pages in response to a reveal command input, such as a pinch gesture, a drag gesture, or an inward flick gesture from near the edge of a page using a stylus. The extra margins mode may also be configured to hide exposed galley areas in response to a hide command input, such as spread gesture.
