Common questions
About Clean Reading Mode.
The web version works with pasted content. A future browser extension can make the process even faster.
You can paste plain text or HTML from a webpage. The tool attempts
to preserve useful article elements such as headings, paragraphs,
lists, quotations and links.
When HTML is pasted, the cleaner removes common non-reading
elements including scripts, navigation, forms, buttons, sidebars,
footers and advertising-related containers.
Yes. You can adjust text size, line spacing, reading width and
switch between light, sepia and dark themes.

Clean Reading Mode is a strong candidate for a Turnkey Tools Chrome
extension. An extension version could convert the current webpage
into reading mode without requiring the user to copy and paste the
article first.
