Microsoft Edge has a new dictionary feature for its PDF reader, which allows you to look up definitions in the browser.
The dictionary look-up tool can be found in the Canary build of Edge. You can download this version of the browser here, or update your current build to at least version 90.0.806.0. The definition feature relies on Bing, but it's not enabled by default. Assuming you have the latest version of Edge Canary installed, use the following steps to enable the dictionary definition option:
1.Click the three-dot button to the upper right of the Edge window and select Settings
2.Move to the Appearance section and flick the two toggles in the Context menu section to the on position
With this done, you can right click a word in a PDF document and select the define option. You will initially see a definition in a popup, and more detail is available if you click See more in sidebar.
