Product Description: 

The Dyslexie font is specially designed for people with dyslexia in order to make reading easier. The most common reading errors of dyslexia are swapping, mirroring, changing, turning and melting letters together. In the Dyslexie font, every letter is uniquely shaped, eliminating the common reading errors of dyslexia. 

Main Features: 

  • Heavy bottom: The center of gravity is placed at the bottom, avoiding turning letters upside down while adding a clear base line. 
  • Inclined letters: Letters that look alike are placed slightly inclined, which makes them easier to distinguish.
  • Enlarged opening: the opening of the Dyslexia font letters are enlarged. This way letters look less alike and will be easily recognized by their shape.
  • Other shapes: The shapes of the letters that look alike are adjusted subtly, which decreases the chance of switching and mirroring them.
  • Longer sticks: Some Dyslexia font letters have longer sticks, which helps to decrease switching letters while reading.
  • Capital letters and punctuation: Punctuation marks and capital letters are bold, emphasizing the breaks, endings and beginnings of phrases.
  • Various heights: Letters that look alike are differentiated by several levels. This way each Dyslexia font letter is a unique character, avoiding letter swapping.
  • Higher height: The height of the letters is increased, whereas the width isn't. This adds 'air' to the Dyslexia font letters, making them easier to distinguish.
  • Better spacing: The distance between individual letters and words is enlarged, which makes reading more convenient and avoids the crowding effect.
