zh 我在Mac上搭配Brave瀏覽器,結果非常好。但最近使用Windows遇到一些問題,兩邊使用的瀏覽器和Reader View版本都一樣: 1. 打開日文網頁,Mac這邊可以正常顯示完整的文字内容。Windows這邊則僅顯示一小部分文字内容,而且中間還顯示一段HTML Code。 2. 打開另一個日文網頁並使用朗讀功能,Mac這邊雖然一開始用中文朗讀,但自行設定為日文就可以。Windows這邊是用中文朗讀翻譯成中文的内容,設定裏面也沒有日語的選項。 請問這是爲什麽?謝謝!

en This Reader Rocks! It has a rhythm once you get on the page as it takes you a little time to get the view to start. I have tried others and this seem to work WELL, exceptionally well!!

en what's the point of a reader view if you can't even choose basic things like background color? why is there no option for pure white with black text???
