Knovel’s search capabilities include delivery of electronic resources with interactive productivity tools. Information retrieved using fielded numeric or numeric range search delivers data contained in reference tables, graphs or equations. This tabular or graphic data is Knovelized, meaning that the data extracted from the electronic text is displayed in a reader and in a form where it can be manipulated, customized and/or exported to Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, CAD applications, and other output formats.
