WORD Read long documents like a book

If you’re reading a long document, then it’s a good idea to switch to Word’s dual-pane reading mode. This minimises the toolbar at the top and displays two pages within the program. It also gives you the option to make edits while you read.

To use this mode, click the View tab, then click Full Screen Reading at the top right. You’ll now see the first two pages of the document and five small icons at the top left of the minimised toolbar. These icons let you search for words within your document, get meaning of words and highlight text in different colours.

The View Options dropdown menu at the top right lets you increase or decrease the text size and edit your document as you read it. Click the Close button at the top right to exit this mode and return to Word’s default editing window.
