What are your hacks for reading digital documents?

I love having physical copies of books or printouts to be able to make annotations or to be able to better focus on just the text on the paper in front of me. Since the effort of obtaining content physically is getting harder to justify (sustainability, latency of shipping, cost), I want to become better at reading digital content on my computer. What are your hacks?

Not strictly on a computer, but I use Pocket a lot as it integrates well with my Kobo. It's nice to read articles on an eInk device instead of some form of computer display. The only problem there is some JS lazyload libraries don't work and you lose images. For most things though it's brilliant, you would be surprised how little you actually need a colour display.
