Word 2016 Reading View Workaround to Enable Editing

Word 2016 Reading View disabled editing in most recent version.

Is there any hack / registry hack / add-on that can bring it back?

Thanks!

the purpose of reading view is not to edit!
you can use this alternative way:
set page view to fit width
User generated imagehide the ribbon.
User generated imagethe page will become like this

Hi Sam,

Ah!  Doing that already - we had the same idea! :D

I know what you mean - but, just feel sad they took editing OUT of read view.  It USED to be there!

Has anyone got a workaround / add on that adapts the current no-edit Reading Mode to allow editing?

Thanks!

This might work as a stand-in, from the link you provided: "...enable editing in the classic Print Preview..."
