Unzip the book's zipped file which will contain “book name.opf” and the supporting directory (folder) that contains the files used to make the book. Place both these files in your “library” folder.

You can either open flip viewing program on your computer . Inside the viewing program choose the “FILE” drop down menu in the top left corner of the screen. Choose “OPEN FILE.”  DO NOT USE “OPEN FOLDER” as this will make a book on the fly that will not be correct. Browse your hard drive for the directory you put the book in and click on the “book-name.opf” file. This will now open your book.

OR For viewing FLIP BOOKS after you have downloaded and installed the FREE FLIP VIEWER and unzipped your FLIP e-book it will be your responsibility to save the e-book files to your computer and to back them up.
