[[Introduction to Obsidian Web Clipper|Web Clipper]] includes a built-in reading mode called Reader that strips away clutter from web pages, presenting only the main article content in a clean, readable format. ## Activate reading mode You can activate Reader in several ways: - The **book icon** in the extension panel header. - Keyboard shortcut `Alt+Shift+R`, customizable in the extension settings. - Toggling reader mode again will restore the original page. ## How it works Reader extracts the main content from the page. The original page is replaced with a clean reading view that includes: - The article title, author, publication date, and source domain. - The main article content, with images and formatting preserved. - An outline in the sidebar for articles with multiple headings. - Syntax highlighting for code blocks. - Footnote popovers that display inline when clicked. ## Customize the reading view Reader mode includes a hidden settings bar that you can display by hovering the top right corner of the page with controls to customize the reading experience. | Setting | Description | | ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | Font size | Adjust the text size. | | Line width | Maximum width of the content area. | | Line height | Spacing between lines. | | Color scheme | | | Theme | Automatic follows your system preference. Or choose to always use light mode or dark mode. |
