FAQ

1. My file that I want to read is not showing?

Please make sure the file is of type .txt,pdf,html,htm and that it is in a directory you have access to.

If you want a specific file type please contact me. I will see what I can do.

2. The web page I typed in has a lot of extra text that is being read?
Unfortunately I can not control developers of websites and how they decide to display there html. I am reading from the html body and removing all css and javascript but many times menus and other display items are in the beginning of the html page :-(
