Read Medium like a physical book. Transform Medium articles into tactile book paper with warm tinting, e-ink grain, and eye comfort.

Read Medium like a physical book. Paperify transforms the harsh OLED screen glare of Medium into an organic, tactile paper reading surface. Built specifically for avid readers, writers, and thinkers who spend hours on Medium essays and publications, Paperify conditions digital light with layered paper tinting, softened ink contrast, and microscopic paper grain to completely eliminate eye fatigue. ─────────────────────────────────── ✦ 8 ARTISANAL PAPER STOCKS ─────────────────────────────────── Each paper profile is calibrated specifically for Medium’s editorial serif typography and ambient lighting: • Soft Linen — Balanced, warm novel paper for everyday Medium essays and deep reading. • Velvet Soft — Ultra-gentle matte finish designed for early morning reading light. • Muted Silk — Smooth, distraction-free clarity ideal for code blocks and technical deep dives. • Warm Honey — Golden library amber atmosphere for cozy, late-night reading sessions. • Minimal Matte — Crisp editorial broadsheet tone with relaxed, fatigue-free text contrast. • Warm Parchment — Archival volume feel featuring a subtle ambient edge vignette. • E-Ink Print — High-contrast monochrome newsprint for zero distraction and pure focus. • Warm Kraft — Earthy, textured craft paper with natural tactile depth and warmth. ─────────────────────────────────── ✦ THE READING STUDIO ─────────────────────────────────── Tailor any Medium story to your exact room lighting with precision controls: • Paper Grain Depth — Dial in natural tactile fiber texture across the page. • Warm Tint & Sepia — Shift tone from gentle cream to rich antique book paper. • Edge Vignetting — Focus your vision naturally on the center reading column. • Soft Contrast — Relax piercing black-on-white text into gentle, legible ink. • Custom Presets — Create, name, and save personal paper recipes in one click. ─────────────────────────────────── ✦ NATIVE MEDIUM POLISH & ARCHITECTURE ─────────────────────────────────── • Sticky Header Auto-Tinting — Medium's top navigation bar, 'For you' tab list, and search inputs are cleanly masked with solid paper so scrolled text never bleeds through. • True Underlay Architecture — Placed strictly behind article content.
