Microsoft Edge Read Aloud - column order issue

When reading aloud, the system reads the right column before the left column when there are two columns on a page when using the microsoft edge read aloud feature. I don't like to use Adobe Acrobat because the voice is very robotic, and I cannot fast forward to next paragraph or skip a paragraph. I've tried searching the internet for an answer. Someone asked the question, but the responder said since they cannot replicate the issue they cannot help.

Hi @AnonymousAnonymous-9877 ,

When using the Immersive Reader in Microsoft Edge, if you want to skip current paragraph, you can use the Read previous paragraph and Read next paragraph buttons to adjust the paragraphs you need to read. Just like this :

And you can control the selection options with the left and right keys of the keyboard, and select options with the space bar. But if you want to control the default reading order, I don't think that's possible.
