I have no problem using reader to read New York Times, Washington Post
and Financial Times articles. Maybe that's because I maintain a
subscription to each of them. All 3 have varieties of pay walls.
By the way , I access reader with alt/control/r. Alt/control/f does not
activate for me. As I recall, the short cut key alt/control/r is listed
next to the reader view option in the Firefox top line menu.

Control plus alt plus R is probably my most used Firefox command. I use
flexible web a lot less because of this.

The New York Times comes to mind right away as a publication where reading view
doesn't work, and I do have the full articles open. I'll try different websites
as I encounter them.

It does seem strange to me taht the reader sometimesfails to read an article
for me, though I can download the text and read it in the published format.
The Economist is the only publisher I've encountered which reader does not
read. Adrian, what are some publications which don't format in reader for you?
Maybe there is a common thread, like a hard pay wall. For sure, reader does
not read truncated articles (continued,read more, etc.) for the most part. It
usually in my experience requires a full article for it to open.

Reader view will work on almost any article.

Hi, Jim. In your reply to a separate query, you mention the Firefox key combo
control-alt-r, which I know you've done in the past. However, I can't find my notes on
that thread. Is this Firefox's "reader view"? I've looked online, but the
instructions don't seem to work for me. Also, I see an alternative key sequence of alt,
v, r, but this doesn’t work either.
Would you explain reader view or point to an explanation, and maybe give a link
to a page where it works?
Here's the webpage of instructions that I found:

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Opening a second window in Firefox
I'm not much help here as I don't open new Firefox tabs. I find that many of
the sites I use work better with IE11 than Firefox. My Fidelity Institutional
site does not work at all with the current (ESL)Firefox version. I have Firefox
as my default browser, mainly because I really like the alt/control/R function
reader, which strips out extraneous information and often noxious audio inserts
from articles I want to read.
