FIGMO asked for help getting this picture posted.
Always glad to help out , so here it is.
Here's a NEWSWEEK article about it:
They’ve been doing that for years. They used to call it the “fine print”.
It works..pretty good..at least to me eyes..
Add the fact that I am walleyed..n..me eyes are 2° out up n down..
Reading has been a nightmare all me life..
The school systum.. basically kicked folks like me to the curb..back in the 1960's n into the 70's...
I just learned to..learn ..differnt..
Btw..
Thankyou very much Mike..
Heh...
Wish the second article you posted..
Actually used that font... ;0)
I find that "bionic script" to be easier and faster to read, and my eyes need all of the help that they can get these days.
I never heard of it before and when first reading using the bionic script, it was actually distracting to me.
If it helps others, then that's great.

This is very good.
I taught reading to 8th graders.
English is the only language printed where you can read the bottom 1/2 half of the letters and get the word.
Then you teach people to read by going down the street without stopping at every house.
I had clients with reading difficulty and this is just what the doctor ordered.
Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.
.....Speed reading seems to be the ability to see words by their shape instead of reading every letter or syllable. If a student can speed read he can probably pass his exam with only a fraction of study time.
Methinks that ^^ C U study probably applies to accomplished readers.

That's interesting. Could you give us an example?

... just wondering how quickly people could read the words "as a whole".... with no context? Is it really wouthit porbelm? My hunch is that they would have some difficulty, but I dunno.
For I guy whose spelling is way not good reading Don C post was quite easy. I don’t know what this means.
You know Fig Can you direct me to a web site that you read that uses this method? I may try this on my Grandaughter she tends to wonder and get distracted when reading. Is there a computer/app that can change text to this format?
