Overview

Supercharge your paper reading: follow references, skim outline, jump to figures, cite and save.

When you install Scholar Reader, PDFs on all sites will have a new look in Chrome. To make this happen, Chrome will ask for permissions to read and change data on all sites. Scholar Reader makes no changes other than the presentation of PDFs. • Preview references as you read. Click the in-text citation to see a summary and find the PDF. • Scan a table of contents. Interested in methods, results, or discussion? Click the section to go straight to it. • Click in-text figure mentions to see the figure and the back button to keep reading. • Make it right for your eyes with light, dark, and night modes. • Copy and paste common citation formats without leaving the paper. • Save articles to your Scholar Library to read or cite later. By installing this extension, you agree to the Google Terms of Service and Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/.

I already love how much faster it makes to look up which studies are cited in a paper. I suggest adding the following features: - Sometimes, a citation is not recognized and by clicking, it jumps to the references section. There should be a button to return to the last view. - What would make this even more useful for me is if it could automatically create a list of references by each section, i.e. studies cited in the introduction, methods section etc.

I think this is the best pdf reader because of its simplicity and features but it would be better if there is highlighting feature in this
