# Viewing articles with Reader

Safari’s Reader lets you view news stories and other articles in a window that’s optimized for easy reading. Reader stitches together articles that are continued over multiple webpages and broken up by ads, menu bars, and other items on webpages.

Note:On the Mac, Reader is available only if you have Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard or later. For information on upgrading Mac OS X, go to the Mac OS X website.

## To use Reader to view an article:

- Click the Reader button at the right end of the Safari address field. The Reader button appears only when a webpage contains text-based articles.

- To see a toolbar, move the pointer to the bottom-center of the page. If you move the pointer away from the toolbar, it disappears after a moment.

- If the type is too small or too large, click the “Zoom in” (+) and “Zoom out” (-) buttons.

- To email the article, click the “Mail this page” button.

- To print the article, click the “Print this page” button.

- To return to the normal webpage view, click the Reader button at the right end of the Safari address bar again.

If a webpage that can be viewed using Reader also has an RSS version, you can view the RSS version by holding down the Reader button and choosing Show RSS from the pop-up menu.
