Note that there still have been no studies on its efficacy. At worst, it is a great font to avoid ambiguity between characters.

    I just added this to my eReader. I’ve been reading a lot lately and while I haven’t had any difficulty, I’m eager to see if it enhances comprehension.

    Good post OP.

      I’m glad you found it useful.

      If you’re experimenting with fonts to see how they change comprehension, you could try Open Dyslexic too! It looks quite ugly, but it makes reading easier to me and another commenter on this thread. I suppose it’s a matter of testing what works best for you.

        Thank you for that suggest. I had taken a peek at it a while ago and it’s too “wobbly” for me.

        That’s quite a nice typeface. I find myself torn between serif vs sans; when reading a book it’s so ingrained to expect serif (I switched from Bookerly) that my eyes stuttered a bit when I started Atkinson’s.

        As long as I can get the OTF or TTF files, I’ll try em all. You have any more?
