Times Old Roman

The first true Roman typeface was designed by the Venetian printer Nicolas Jenson in 1470 and is the early modern ancestor of our font developed by Victor Lardent, a lettering artist at The Times, in London, in 1929.

If you read large print or dyslexic font paperback books do you prefer this to be indicated on the cover (say on a banner at the top) to help you identify the accommodation?

I compiled a quick poll based on different perspectives I've read.

@bookstodon many months ago I received feedback that some readers disliked how I labeled my large-font edition of Late Identified workbook. So I could do better, I asked.

The majority that participated reported they wanted the accommodation labeled on their paperback in a visible way.

“Large Font Edition” or “Dyslexic Font Edition”

When I asked where, most said on the spine.
