\f2\fs28 \cf0 Lexia Readable and Lexia Bold Readable are K-Type Freebies - 2004, 2008 (version 4.02)\
www.k-type.com    -    keith@k-type.com\
\
The two fonts are free for personal use (see below). Both fonts are free for use by non-profit groups, educational establishments and charities.\
\
The Lexia Readable family is designed for maximum legibility. K-Type has tried to capture the clarity and accessibility of Comic Sans without the American comic book associations and whimsical, childlike quality which are culturally inappropriate for many uses and may seem patronizing.\
\
Lexia is an attempt to retain the strength, friendliness and legibility of Comic Sans, and even a 
\f3\i slightly
\f2\i0  marker-drawn feel, whilst tidying up the comic book idiosyncrasies.  It adds a hint of dignity, a sprinkling of refinement, and introduces elements of designer type to appeal to a contemporary audience.\
\
Whilst Comic Sans has long been a preferred choice for infant typography from 'Baby on Board' stickers onward, its use risks undermining any serious message and appearing condescending to readers with greater visual maturity, issues that are particularly acute when applied to adolescent and adult literacy.\
\
Typographical concerns from recent educational publications and discussions, and some highlighted by the British Dyslexia Association have been incorporated into the design of Lexia - the simpler, handwritten forms of a and g, the non-symmetry of letters such as b and d, good sized descenders and ascenders, generous spacing and excellent screen clarity.\

\f3\i \cf3 "I am not utterly convinced that Lexia is superior to ComicSans (my personal favorite), which is also available to our users -- but I do have to note that as soon as I converted our site to the Lexia readable view, I immediately spotted a typographical error on the page that had previously eluded me.\
\
Lexia has been accepted for inclusion in the site customization feature of the Dyslexia.com web site."
