One of Edge’s more interesting features is its ability to read webpages and PDF documents to you.
Open a webpage (like this one, perhaps) in Edge. Then right-click anywhere on the page and select Read Aloud. A control bar will appear at the top of the page, and Edge will begin reading the page content to you. (Make sure your speakers are connected and turned on, of course.)
Using the control bar, you can jump ahead, jump back, or change the voice being used to read to you.
Or you can click on the “X” in the toolbar to turn the reading off.
I give up. Why do your printouts use so much paper? I refuse to use 6 pages for the above, which could have been done on two, o even one. The same is true of MS and many other “producers of good info” (POGI ?) Are you all heavily invested in paper companies?
Computers were vaunted as paper-savers, but “YOU” squander it. And NO! I can’t do without printouts! I simply can not remember the steps… I am a HOME user. I had many programming courses – which I never used. But courses in USING computers – O & M – and Repair – were very scarce. And, at 83, without wheels, they are no longer accessible even if they do exist locally. I have not yet found, for instance, keyboard manuals, (Logitech K330, etc) that explain even use of the Function keys … Do I just not know where to look? Or is that what is meant by “intuitive”, which is exactly what programs are NOT, to me.
I fondly remember User Manuals. Too bad Windows is so “comprehensive” that even MS seems unable to organize usable info. As one guru recently put it re Windows 10: “We can’t stand any more improvements…”.
Web pages are designed to look good on a computer screen, and nowadays sometimes a phone, not paper. The ads and comments are all there on the page and everything is printed when you print the page. When I print a web page, I select all of the relevant text bu clicking on the beginning of the text I want to copy, scroll down to the end of what I want to copy and CTRL+click at that point. I type CTRL+C to copy and past it into a text editor of word processor. Then I usually have to edit out any extraneous pictures and links.
