The Readability Features Sandbox

Play in our
Readability Features Sandbox

 

Software developers often create a test environment, called a sandbox, with elements for the intended users to try before the code is built, tested and deployed.

Play in the Sandbox to explore the impact of having access to the features that allow you to change your base font, your character spacing or character width, and more.

Improve your own reading experiences. Ask your digital content providers to add Readability Features.

In addition to the original Readability Matters Sandbox which demonstrates Readability Features using Alice in Wonderland,  Readability Matters is pleased to feature a fun article from WorldEd’s The Change Agent, a magazine published for adult education.

 

 

“You wrecked it for me. Ever since I tried personalized formats, I don’t want to go back [to a publisher selected format].”
