Our EasyRead® format has been designed to make reading easier for all kinds of readers.
EasyRead® books have been optimized to improve both word recognition and ease of
eye tracking by adjusting word and line spacing. Line spacing has been increased
to stop the eye moving to adjacent lines, but is still close enough for the line
above and below to be used as an eye tracking guide. End-of-line hyphenation has
been minimized.
Our EasyRead Super Large Formats have been designed to make reading easier for people
with a broad range of vision issues. The EasyRead SuperLarge books are available
in:
Our Special Print Formats have been designed to make reading easier for readers
with dyslexia, macular degeneration, and other vision issues that make eye tracking
harder.
The EasyRead Custom Character Discrimination Pattern distinguishes between letters
by making them stand out from similarly shaped letters: e and o, mirrored letters
like b and d, or stemmed and unstemmed letters like h and n. This format is offered
as a Custom Format as the character discrimination issues faced by a reader are
usually specific to that individual.
The EasyRead Word Pattern Edition is optimized for readers who need help differentiating
between words or to track their eyes across a line. This pattern adds extra visual
information about word order, and makes it harder for readers to swap the order
of adjacent words.
