          <p>Right-click the page and select <gui>Autoscroll</gui>.</p>
        </item>
        <item>
          <p>Move the mouse pointer towards the bottom of the window to scroll
          down; it will scroll faster depending on how far down the window you
          go.</p>
        </item>
        <item>
          <p>To stop autoscrolling, click anywhere in the document.</p>

      <list>
        <item>
          <p>Move the mouse pointer over the page and hold down the middle
          mouse button to drag it around.</p>
        </item>
        <item>
          <p>If you don't have a middle mouse button, hold down the left and
          right mouse buttons at the same time, then drag.</p>
        </item>
      </list>
    </item>

    side pane and select <gui>Index</gui> to view it.</p>
