This font is awesome!

I’m not blind but my eyesight isn’t what it used to be, like all men my age, and this font really is legible at a much smaller size even for me.

    Special Circles
    Circular elements reflect the heritage of the Braille Institute.

    I’m confused by this “feature” of the font.

    Is it something that turned out to be there, and they make a connection to it? I wouldn’t add it to the list of features, right next to intentional design. It’s confusing.

    Is it intentional design? Then I don’t get it, what it means or is for.

    Thanks for sharing.

    I have minor optic atrophy and severe diabetic retinopathy. Have to say, these fonts really do help.

    They make reading much more comfortable for me.

    Now, need to work out how to add them to my android tablet,

    Wow, that was interesting… My eyes started to ache while reading that font… Like if I look directly at the sun or a very bright light or lightshow.

    Fascinating!

    (On mobile, ~15cm distance, I have some visual deficits that require glasses but I haven’t got around to get progressive ones or specific reading glasses as I mostly see alright in short dustances. I have something with the rotation - can’t remember the correct term - which I suspect had a part here)
