Question

Safari format changes immediately after opening

My Apple Mac is opening Safari in any chosen website but changes the original page layout after one second of time to a very different format. How can I stop this?

iMac 27″, macOS 10.13

Hi relytstardust,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. So that we're on the same page, when you open Safari, and go to any website, you see one layout, which immediately changes to another layout?

Let us know.

Hello relytstardust,

Is it possible that you have Reader view enabled? If you're not sure, take a look at the article below and see if this fits with what you're experiencing.

If it is, you can follow the directions provided under section: View an article using Reader, to disable or change the view.

Best regards.

On my applemac I opened Safari,clicked on 'settings' ,then clicked on "use reader when available". This was enabled so I disabled it and hey presto the matter was fixed. Thank you for your kind help.

Yes that is correct, the content remains the same but the layout is usually a black & white and in typewritten form
