Short description
Format pages using the OpenDyslexic font and low contrast help	Increases readability of websites by changing to easier-to-read fonts and adding visual enhancements
Full summary
🔍 ABOUT OpenDyslexic is an open sourced font created to increase readability for readers with dyslexia. This extension overrides all fonts on web pages with the OpenDyslexic font, and formats pages to be more easily readable. Your brain can sometimes do funny things to letters. OpenDyslexic tries to help prevent some of these things from happening. Letters have heavy weighted bottoms to add a kind of "gravity" to each letter. You are able to quickly figure out which part of the letter is down because of this feature. It aids in recognizing the correct letter and sometimes helps to keep your brain from rotating them around. Consistently weighted bottoms can also help reinforce the line of text. The unique shapes of each letter can help prevent confusion by flipping and swapping. 📱 SOCIAL MEDIA Stay connected and be part of our vibrant community: Official website: http://OpenDyslexic.org See more	A simple-to-use open source dyslexia reader helper extension.
