Times Reader is a new, downloadable software application that lets you read The New York Times digitally, online or offline, in a paginated format as opposed to scrolling down a Web page. Times Reader lets you retrieve all the latest news and photos by "synching" data from the Web and downloading it onto your computer, so you can read the content even when you're not connected to the internet. You can adjust the font sizes for enhanced readability.

Times Reader will work on a desktop, laptop, tablet PC or ultra-mobile computing device.
