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/.

This is great. Solves a huge problem of looking at reference while reading. Just one request: Add commenting and highlighting features.

The tool is great. Sadly, reading a lot of papers causes the scholar website to think you are a robot and it requires you to do a CAPTCHA (quite often); also, when this happens, the plugin is confused and doesn't give any proper warning or anything (you have to know what's happening and then manually visit the scholar website to resolve the issue).

It has been very useful, significantly improving my paper reading experience with its reference visualization. However, it is frequently overridden by Chrome's PDF viewer (I use Chrome on Linux). As a result, I must repeatedly disable and re-enable it since there is no option to set it as the default reader within Chrome. This is quite frustrating, and it's a pity because the tool itself is very helpful. I hope this issue is fixed soon.
