Hi there CAPjmarsh,


You can follow the steps below to turn off Reader in Safari on your Mac:


1. In the Safari app  on your Mac, click the Reader button  at the left end of the Smart Search field.
2. The button appears only if the webpage has an article that Reader can show.
3. To stop using Reader, click the Reader button again or press Esc.

Take care.
