PDF READ ALOUD BUTTON
MYJV_111 We appreciate you reaching out. We recently added this functionality back into the PDF experience, so not all channels have it yet. Here's a screenshot:
As TheShaunSaw asked, it would be great to know what version you're using. (You can find that here: edge://settings/help).

I also has the canary version 85.0.544.0 (Offizielles Build) canary (64-Bit) and this one has got the READ ALOUD button, but it doesnt work like before the update. (microsoft explorer).
I cant choose row I want to read.
MYJV_111 Ok, great, I'm glad to hear that you have it in Canary. And good news: we do have that functionality!
To read aloud from a specific point, please do the following:
- Open the Read aloud feature
- Pause the audio
- Highlight the place in the PDF that you'd like Read aloud to start
- Right-click to open the context menu
- Select "Continue to read aloud from here"
Or if you'd like to choose the place without pausing and highlighting, you can:
- Open the Read aloud feature
- While it's playing, skip paragraphs with "|<" and ">|" from the address bar or the context menu
Hopefully that helps! If this still doesn't meet your use-case, let me know and I'll loop in our PDF team.

Project & Community Manager - Microsoft EdgeDeleted Thank You! I will try this.
But I really want the old reader again, that was really amazing. I could read long texts with that without any problems.
So please tell me, what I can do in Mircrosoft edge to change it. I have the Version 83.0.478.45.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU.
