  1. Does anyone happen to know if there's an easy way to get #emacs's nov.el package to display text using the #OpenDyslexic font? I was hoping there was a customization variable, but it seems not.

    Perhaps I could run it in a terminal editor and change the terminal's font, but then I'd lose things like images.

    I can hack something together if I really need to, I'd just rather not if there's a simpler solution available.

    Edit: I was able to do this through M-x customize-face

    There's 2 more images but I guess I'll just reply with them.

  14. Ever since I saw @klemensstrasser have support for the OpenDyslexic font in @studysnacksapp I’ve been meaning to do the same.

    I was really worried about breaking the layout of some Views.

    Seeing @hidde do it made me decide to just start.

    Making good progress!

  21. @gemeinsamhier @mxk Ich habe eine Legasthenikerin im Freundeskreis, die diese Schrift sehr schätzt. Mit anderen Schriften verrutscht sie leicht zwischen den Zeilen, mit #OpenDyslexic passiert ihr das nicht.

    Für Menschen mit #Legasthenie gibt es übrigens auch eine freie Spezialschrift: opendyslexic.org/ #opendyslexic

  26. Someone showed me the #font Shantell Sans, and my first impression was really good, it passed my simple #Dyslexia test: I take a one-second-or-less glance at a full large paragraph and see if I got the core of what's being mentioned.

    After a day of using it, so far it's pretty good. It fits well on a desktop UI, unlike OpenDyslexic, which needs to be used in its Alta variant to work.

    So far I know of the following good specialized fonts for dyslexia and vision impairment #accessibility:

  29. The creator of the accessibility-focused #font #OpenDyslexic
    has moved the font to Itch.io following discoveries of pro-Nazi content being unquestioningly hosted on its original host, Gumroad.

  31. I am not... dyslexic. I mean, when I was a kid I'd have trouble telling POTS and STOP apart... but I have no diagnosis. Still, the #OpenDyslexic font feels a lot... roomier for reading

  35. Oh! It works! My Sony PRS-300 displays the converted epub of "A Voyage To Arcturus" with the embedded OpenDyslexic font. Don't need the font adjusted to the "normal larger baseline" I normally do with other fonts when using #OpenDyslexic, so I need to fine-tune that now...
    I have the PRS+ rom on it. Here are some screenshots of two font sizes of OpenDyslexic displaying on it.

  39. My "#speedReading" basically brings me up to "normal fast" since I'm a slow reader. I am considering seeing if I can get #Calibre to embed the #OpenDyslexic #font since that also improves reading speeds...

  43. #AiutoSegreto (scusate, dato che quello per la cuginetta 14enne è andato molto bene ne approfitto!)

    Cuginetto di 10 anni con #dislessia (già seguito da qualche anno da logopedista) che inizierà a usare un computer portatile.

    Oltre ai #font creati appositamente per rendere il testo meglio leggibile (#OpenDyslexic per citarne uno), ci sono accorgimenti particolari da seguire per rendere migliore il suo approccio a questo tipo di tecnologia?

    Giochi fatti bene?

    Esercizi per la tastiera?

    Grazie!

    So @baccenfutter has been awesome and deployed the flyers we quickly threw together a week ago.

    We used #Opendyslexic #font but I wonder how much good it really does. However, I do find it very legible indeed!

    @infuanfu is not present to provide a POC this time. Call 5238 on dect to speak with baccenfutter. Or swing by @cbase #assembly to see if he's there. Try to remember the discount code :)

  51. Man lernt nie aus. Es existiert eine wissenschaftlich evaluierte Schriftart namens #OpenDyslexic, die Menschen mit #Legasthenie das Lesen erleichtern kann. Zumindest funktioniert das im Englischen. opendyslexic.org/
