Manuq already started a thread about fonts in Read, <div>but there are more topics I want start to discuss, then start a new thread</div><div>to no hijack the conversation.</div><div><br></div><div>* Fonts included by default in the images:</div>
<div>A OLPC ticket already exist [1] but is not closed,</div><div>part of the problem was resolved (Fedora removed the Hersey fonts)</div><div>but we continue including a few very similar set of fonts,</div><div>and not many options to use the fonts to express or communicate.</div>
<div>You can see the fonts included with this little utility [2] </div><div><br></div><div>* Global document font config: when we define a good font for the ebook reader,</div><div>may be that font is good to be the default in Write, Memorize, Laberinth, Fototoon</div>
<div>and other activities working with text. Should be good have a way to modify this </div><div>configuration in a single place. By example, I think OLPC Australia use a particular font,</div><div>does not have sense they need patch all the activities to change this.</div>
<div><br></div><div>* Handwritten font: teachers have asked about include one handwritten font.</div><div><br></div><div>* Fonts to dyslexic people: there are fonts designed to be easier to identify for dyslexic people.</div>
<div>Do not have mirrored letters, like "d" and "b" or "p" and "q", and have other subtle design options.</div><div>(The Fabula font [3] looks like a good candidate)</div><div><br></div>
