With the Nook magazines, there is a button at the top that allows you to go to a text only page. Voiceover reads this quite well. The same is true with the Zinio magazines, however there app is a little fussy to work with. Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze any tie ping or spelin airors. On

No need to guess. Google says it's a ',' (comma) for a pause and a ';' (semicolon) for a wait. You can use multiple commas to increase the pause. The shift key on the numeric keypad of your iPhone, in the lower left hand corner, will let you enter commas and semicolons. On 05/16/2013 09:14

You should find that same option for image or text view in the Kindle app, at least in some mags. The thing I don't care for in the Nook app is that you can't move from one article to the next just by reading as you would do a book. At least, this has been true in the Christian Science Monitor,
