The app also allows the user to customize the font and background of the Reader mode.

That way, as the pages that are referenced are changed or taken from the web, a link to the version that was live when the page was written will be preserved. Then the Internet Archive hopes that references to these archived pages will be put in place of a link that would be otherwise be broken, or a companion link to allow people to see what was originally intended by a page's authors. The goal is to fix all broken links on the web. Crawls of supported "No More 404" sites. Collection: Wikipedia Near Real Time (from IRC) This is a collection of web page captures from links added to, or changed on, Wikipedia pages. The idea is to bring a reliability to Wikipedia outlinks so that if the pages referenced by Wikipedia articles are changed, or go away, a reader can permanently find what was originally referred to. This is part of the Internet Archive's attempt to rid the web of broken links.

Not familiar with Reader? Well, when you visit sites that this Safari feature can work with, you'll see a little icon with lines appear in the left corner of the Smart Search bar. If you click that icon (or press Command-Shift-R, for View > Show Reader), you'll be taken to a clutter-free version of the site, which'll strip out things like ads. This is great for reading articles without distractions! And now, you can make this view look exactly how you want it to, as well. To do that, click on the icon on the right of the Smart Search bar when you've got a Reader page open. There you can make the text bigger or smaller (or change the font entirely) or switch up the color of the background. And when you're finished with your article and want to exit Reader view, press Escape, use the Reader shortcut I mentioned above again, or click the "lines" icon at the top. And hey, we've got this feature under iOS 9, too! It follows the same steps as above—if you see the "lines" icon appear in the search bar, tap it to switch to Reader view. Then you can use the icon on the right to adjust the settings. Leave this view on iOS by tapping the Reader icon again. This really does make perusing articles online much easier, so if you've never played around with Reader at all, now would be a good time to check it out! I'm a fan. 87696Melissa Holttmo_quick_tip41464095700 Lee Dronick 12:14 PM EDT, May. 24th, 2016 Thank you! I didn't know about how we can change the background, the paper, color. 1:06 AM EDT, May. 25th, 2016 I tend to save a lot of articles by printing to PDF. Unfortunately, the Reader view doesn't work for that. It's no surprise that adding color to the background might not want to be something you'd burden your printer with, nor its expensive ink cartridges, but it would be cool to be able to retain Reader style settings for print-to-PDF documents. Melissa Holt 2:45 PM EDT, May. 25th, 2016 You're welcome, Lee! Hey kc_cramer! I'm not sure why it's not working for you, but using Command-P and then saving as a PDF is functioning just fine for me in Reader view. What steps are you following? —Melissa 10:45 PM EDT, May. 26th, 2016 kc_cramer, I also need for my work PDFs and calling for the Print to PDF after having switched to the Reader View works .... although not without it's limitations. The font chosen is NOT the one used in the Printout/PDF. Background colors are also ignored ( for the better ). Font size doesn't behave in Rv like expected, it rather zooms into the page, even if in the View Menu, [Zoom Text Only] is checked ( and that works for a plain webpage ). On older versions of Safari, without Rv, text size changes would be taken over to the printed/PDF version. BTW, this here is not an exclusive feature of El Capitan, I'm still on Yosemite but my previous Safari versions ( latest 9.1.1 here ) already offered these bonuses ( although with the forementioned caveats ).

OS X El Capitan
Features.:Applications.:Safari.
Safari in El Capitan lets users pin tabs for frequently accessed websites to the tab bar, similar to Firefox and Google Chrome. Users are able to quickly identify and mute tabs that play audio without having to search for individual tabs. Safari supports AirPlay video streaming to an Apple TV without the need to broadcast the entire webpage. Safari extensions are now hosted and signed by Apple as part of the updated Apple Developer program and they received native support for content blocking, allowing developers to block website components (such as advertisements) without JavaScript injection.
