In Google Earth Pro you can change the coordinate format to show in UTM. Under Tools / Options menu change "Show Lat/Lon" choice to Universal Transverse Mercator. You also need to make sure the Status Bar is active which can be selected in the View menu.

Is it possible to measure area using Google Earth?
Yes. Google Earth Professional also allows you measure area, but it is expensive. Alternatively you can use the free version of Google Earth, mark the area to be measured as a path. Then save it as a kml file. Programs like EasyAcreage can then read these kml files and calculate the acreage for you. This method is remarkably accurate. See a case study where the accuracy of this method was used to measure the size of a tennis court. The KML Tools Project and Zonums area tool (in links below) is an easy way to measure area online.

Can Google Maps read a newspaper?
The highest-resolution satellite imagery available in Google Maps cannot yet read print in a newspaper but Google's Street View could possibly read the headlines.License plates, for example, can be seen in Google's Street View imagery so there is a detection process in place to identify and blur license plates to prevent identification of vehicles and individuals.Newspaper print the size of license plate lettering or larger in all practical sense could be legible in Street View from Google Maps or Google Earth.See here to see an example where you can read magazine cover titles at a newsstand in Google Earth Street View.
Does Google Earth need the Internet to function?
For those of you wondering what happens to Google Earth (GE) when you don't have an Internet connection, the amazing thing is that it will work. But, it only works with what you have installed in your cache. If you anticipate taking your laptop somewhere where you won't have a broadband connection, you can still use GE for a limited area of viewing. Or you can use it for doing a demonstration somewhere without an Internet connection. First, go to the menu item Tools->Options and select the "Cache" tab. You can make the cache size as large as 2000 MB (i.e. 2 Gigabytes). This will give you more data to work with. Then, you need to move to the area you want data for and zoom into that area. The most recent things you have looked at will be what's in your cache. I think you need to turn on the layers for the information you want cached as well (for example, 'roads' or 'dining'). You also might want to turn on any of your placemarks related to the region you want to look at. It doesn't take much of an area to fill up the cache. Especially if the area you are viewing has lots of high-res pictures. But, I read about someone using this in the remote areas of Africa with a GPS and a laptop to find his way around. There is also a tip that you can save your cache(s) under different files and then swap them out to look at different areas. Could be useful if you were travelling without Internet access for a prolonged period of time.
How can read UTM coordinates for area from Google Earth?
You can change the displayed coordinates in Google Earth in the menu under Tools > Options > Show Lat/Long and select Universal Transverse Mercator for UTM.Next you want to check the Sidebar option under View menu to show the coordinates under the mouse, which will now appear in UTM with a grid zone, northing, and easting values.For a quick guide to using UTM see related links.
Can tombstones be read by Google Earth?
In other words can the resolution of imagery in Google Earth (or Google Maps) allow you read the text on tombstones. In practice Google's high resolution Street View photographs allow you to read larger letters on T-Shirts and most street signs. Google Street View takes imagery on public roads so it's not likely to capture such photographs in a cemetery but if Google did take Street View photographs in such a place then it would be possible to read some of the large letters on the tombstones if the contrast and lighting was good. So in theory you could with enough-resolution read the large print letters. If anybody finds a readable tombstone inscription in either Google Earth or Google Maps then add a note in the Discussion Area of this topic.
