Dyslexie, i.e. a font created by Dutch graphic designer Christian Boer, is now said to make life significantly easier for dyslexics.

It won't pay their mortgage, and it won't get their obnoxious father-in-laws off their backs.

But it will help them overcome their reading difficulties, so they'll be able to take their mind off the things that are troubling them by enjoying a really cool book.

Daily Mail says that that letters written in this font all vary in shape and size. Besides, they all have a heavy baseline.

This makes it easier for dyslexics to distinguish between them, and lowers their chances of misreading a word, the same source reports.

"Reading with the font Dyslexie doesn’t lead to an increase in reading speed."

"There was however a decrease in the reading errors when dyslexicsread words that where printed in the font Dyslexie," researcher Renske de Leeuw at the University of Twente in the Netherlands explains.
