Are there any dyslexic unfriendly fonts?
Let's say I REALLY don't want dyslexic people reading my post. What font would be the most troublesome font for them to read?
You're viewing a single thread.
Comic sans is famously very hard to read because of its inconsistent kerning, inconsistent letter features and general bad design.
Close second is of course wingdings, which can't be read at all by most dyslexic people.
Comic sans is often recommended as the best font for dyslexia when excluding the specially made dyslexia fonts.
I've always Senn the opposite but I may be mistaken. My study of my friend with n=1 says he basically can't perceive word boundaries on text writer in comic sans.
Yeah, kinda baffeling for them to call out Comic sans in particular when it's well known for being surprisingly good for people with dyslexia despite it's otherwise pretty poor reputation.
Dang, I was going to say wingdings as a smartass answer!
