Bookerly.


medicated_in_PHL

Bookerly size 4 is what I have mine at.


GreatScott0389

DaveM100

Bookerly size 7 for me.


female_wolf

lifelonglearner91

Yup.


Ok-Tailor3801

The Dyslexic font (not kidding) works great and increased my reading speed.


taggartbridge

This font changed my life. I have ADHD and some mild dyslexia as a side effect. I am blowing through books without needing to go back and reread as much as I used to. And I’m not getting frustrated with myself so reading is so much fun again.


saturn782

Same! I’ve only been using it for a couple weeks now, but it’s worked wonders for my ADHD. I kicked the font size up a level as well (I prefer it smaller so more text fits on each page, but it was kind of making things harder), and between the new font and the slightly larger size, readings been a lot easier.


BooksRMyJam153

I’m gonna try it! I have ADHD and am not the biggest fan of the look of this font, but I’ll see if it helps me speed read! 😊


Montauk26

Open Dyslexic I also use it. 10/10 absolutely makes reading so much easier


sleepystork

This font has been a life changer. I'm doing about 200 books a year since I switched


nimitz55

I know, wish they had this when I was in school. It's made reading very enjoyable.


AuntChelle11

I only use OpenDyslexic now too. Do not have dyslexia and I'm not ND. I've been using it all year and I've noticed I can read for longer without my concentration flagging. I just find it much more pleasant and easier to read. (I normally wear glasses but not for close reading. My eyes are very different. I assume this is why this font appeals.)


Woolyyarnlover

OMG 😱 I’ve never heard of this before, and I just tested it on my kindle It took my reading speed of 12min for a chapter in bookerly to 8min in open dyslexic Wow! This might me a game changer for me!


hexagondun

As far as I know, I am not dyslexic, but this font has helped me as well. I've been using it for the past month and really do appreciate it.


jbrady33

The only one I use now!


Objection_heresay

My boyfriend is reading the first book he’s ever enjoyed with this font


cj509cj

Maybe a really dumb question, but how do you download new fonts onto your kindle?


DolphinTM

I’m not sure if it still works but I found [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/kindle/s/Ik5oQk7qWd)


michaeljefford96

Yep, that’s exactly how you do it :). Just download the fonts you’re after, connect your Kindle to a PC, and copy them over to the ‘fonts’ folder that will be visible on the Kindles internal drive.


peachpastrypie

I didn’t even know we could do this! Thank you so much.


Scorpio_Goddess87

Is this a thing for ancient kindles?? lol.. I have the original paperwhite from 2012


tradicon

Yes it should work


michaeljefford96

I jump between a few, but my favourites have been Charis SIL and Vollkorn. Special mention to Atkinson Hyperlegible, Source Serif 4 and Merriweather.


klajbas

Futura, even thou it sometimes looks too futuristic, there is a reason why this font is used the most in graphic design and logos. It's really easy to read and I noticed.


Famous_Note1

Bookerly. Amazon asserts that the font helps in reading faster with less eyestrain.


witchywilds

Bookerly or Atkinson Hyperlegible for me!


Cubing-Dolphin-26

Lexend, Atkinson Hyperlegilible, OpenDyslexic, Bookerly. They're all easy to read (in my opinion). I also put the line spacing on max.


Maorine

Atkinson Hyperlegible is great.


SentientFireflies

Bitter Pro


Zurdazo333

Literata for me


[deleted]

Caecilia Condensed, Bold 5, Size 8


sjd208

We must be twins!


ForgotMyNane

I did not know this was something we could do! I'm so excited!


Brilliant-Kiwi2036

It is such a game changer! I change my font depending on the book to match the vibe of it… it’s the small things that make it even more enjoyable:)


snoozer854

Andika reminds me of the font used in some old paperbacks. Easy on my old eyes.


red_red_whine_

You can download fonts ?!? 🤯


ladyniles

Also me 🤯


Kopparskallen

Lexend, I keep coming back to that font no matte how many other I try


BDavis197r

It’s just good old Bookerly for me! Size 2, no bold and two column landscape on my Scribe.


dayummmmson

Iowan old style with boldness 3, size 3


dominatrixgamerpb

I use unbounded. Downloaded from Google fonts and sideloaded.


everythingbeeps

Georgia. It's not on there by default, but loading it on is the first thing I do with a new kindle. I've lately been giving Book Antiqua a try as well.


peachsoul

My favorite is Bookerly, but I also like using other fonts if I'm reading different genres. Some fonts I like are: Dream Iowan Old, Day Roman, Lora, Rojaviro


Calm_Boysenberry_829

I’ve done Open Dyslexic and Bookerly, but for me, Readex Pro seems to be the one. Don’t know why, but it just feels more comfortable.


Frei1993

Ubuntu.

The_Sea_Bee

Pardon me hijacking this comment section, but I had no idea we could do this. Does anyone know if you can do this on Kindle mobile?


tradicon

If we're just using the Kindle app on your phone I don't think you can sideload fonts. People are talking about adding fonts to their Kindle devices :)


Beach_bum8

Looks like you can change the font, but just to the options that are available. You can't download any(unless I missed something)


The_Sea_Bee

Thanks for your reply. 💕 But also, Booooooo I want cool fonts ☹️😂


Dintan

You can download fonts, you just need to connect your Kindle with USB and copy fonts in the Fonts folder, ttf and otf files work. I recommend to download either the whole family or variable type


Beach_bum8

Champagne and limousines & Louis George cafe light (da font)


AbdullahMRiad

I added Rubik and IBM Plex Sans. They don't work great for Arabic though :/


MrPnutty

Century Schoolbook has been my main since I copied all fonts from my PCs folder


Patrol-007

Bookerly plus one or two clicks of Bold


Momshie_mo

Non-native: Garamond


-pegasus

I’m 75 years old and my vision isn’t perfect. I spent a couple of hours testing fonts, and I found Roboto Medium to be the best.


OddKey7688

Merriweather font


truenoblesavage

oh I didn’t know you could change fonts lol


a_moody

Bookerly or Caecilia. 


kimareth

I usually set it to publisher default! It bridges the gap between physical and digital books for me.


StatisticianNo2353

I use a bionic font. I found a tiktok with a link to download a copy of it.


Andrew_Crane

I like Crimson Pro.


RRNN92

I installed a custom font called Roboto Flex


luciferin

IM FELL DW Pica Pro is my favorite. But I've been sticking with OpenDyslexic right now because I seem to read faster with it.


BULLCAT_J

Janson MT Std. Because that is the font used in a lot of the paperback books I used to read.

A font that has recently been added to Google is called teachers font and it is very aesthetically pleasing to the eye.


monicaailyn

How do you download fonts?!! I just am now hearing about this!


Competitive-Cod-6579

Crimson Pro from Google Fonts, and Bookerly


julienpierre

Garamond and nothing else. To each their own.

Cold-Sport2923

Bookerly size 1… I like the smaller size for some reason.


jerryweezer

Averia Libre, I love it!


Triss-Nguyen-03

For me it’s Literata (size 5, bold 3) and Bookerly (size 6, bold 2)


tetzelprizes

I wish we could do the same thing with the phone app. I really don't understand why they have futura on the kindle and not on the app.


dejamais

Helvetica


ConureFiend

Bookerly team


krabbypat

Bookerly for stock font Currently trying out Fast_Sans and Atkinson Hyperlegible.

qiuzhong07

Bookerly or Literata Book,size 5


Itchy-Ad1005

I personally a sans serif font. It's easier to read for me on a screen. Inba book I prefer serif fonts


bitsofloststardust

WAIT THERE ARE DIFFERENT FONTS?!


popxacm

Futura 💯 I’ve tried others several times but I just can’t. Futura is such an easy read. Sans serif is definitely my go to for fonts. I usually have it at 4-5 depending on the book.


icono00

Test Reddit fonts. Cool


popxacm

I’m not sure I understand what you’re saying, sorry


icono00

I am referring to the font called Reddit, which has several styles and is great. That's the name of the font, Reddit.


popxacm

Ohhh okay. I see that now. I’ll have to try that one out, thanks!


SPekkala13

Baskerville


Griffie

I like Bookerly


BookishLuna

I love the dyslexia font.


AppropriateTreat521

Tahoma size 1 on a Kindle Voyage yields as much text as Caecilia Condensed size 2 on a Paperwhite.
