So you have a pdf file with furigana above the kanji. You want to hide the furigana. So you scroll the document to the top of the screen to try to get it just to the point at the top where the furigana are above the top of the screen and thus hidden, but the kanji are visible. But because of the windows mouse wheel scroll function that skips rather than smoothly scrolls (like you could easily do on an ipad, or a touch-screen pc for that matter), you cant quite perfectly place the text where you want it on the screen and hide the furigana line while keeping the kanji fully visible. Might you know of any pdf viewer, browser, or method that can do it?

You can usually just press the middle mouse button and move your mouse up and down for smooth scrooling.
But there is probably a better way to doing it. Like extracting the text and showing it in a font without furigana.
You can change how many lines the scroll wheel scrolls in the settings. Control Panel>Hardware/Devices>Right Click the mouse and there’s a tab with the setting. Sorry if the path isn’t perfect, it is 3am 😅.
This may also be able to be changed in whatever PDF viewing program you’re using (so it’s not a system wide change), but you’ll just have to look for it.
Maybe a browser extension? This [chrome one](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/scrollanywhere/jehmdpemhgfgjblpkilmeoafmkhbckhi) lets you hold click to drag
