随着阅读越来越多地从纸张转变为在线媒体，许多网络浏览器现在提供了“读者视图”，它可以修改网页布局和设计以提高可读性。但是，研究尚未确定读者的看法是否有效地提高可读性以及如何有效他们可能会改变Mozilla Firefox的读者的看法，从而通过排除菜单，图像和内容来大大降低网站的视觉复杂性。 391名参与者（包括42名被诊断出患有阅读障碍的人），这表明与标准网站相比，读者的看法平均增加了5％，并显着提高了感知的可读性和视觉吸引力。网站和浏览器的设计，这些网站和浏览器可以更好地支持具有不同阅读技能的人。
As reading increasingly shifts from paper to online media, many web browsers now provide a "Reader View,'' which modifies web page layout and design for better readability. However, research has yet to establish whether Reader Views are effective in improving readability and how they might change the user experience. We characterize how Mozilla Firefox's Reader View significantly reduces the visual complexity of websites by excluding menus, images, and content. We then conducted an online study with 391 participants (including 42 who self-reported having been diagnosed with dyslexia), showing that compared to standard websites the Reader View increased reading speed by 5% for readers on average, and significantly improved perceived readability and visual appeal. We suggest guidelines for the design of websites and browsers that better support people with varying reading skills.
