- DanBC 14y agoOne theory is that the "heavier" base "anchors" the font, and stops letters dancing. I have no idea what the research is like. This old website has some calm information: (http://www.dyslexic.com/fonts http://www.dyslexic.com/fonts)
- peterb 14y agoThe idea is that many letters in the Latin-based alphabet are similar (i/j, v/w, b/d/p, etc.) and dyslexics confuse them. The idea of the fonts is emphasize the differences and de-emphasize the similarities.
