Seconding this recommendation! I caught parts of it on the radio last weekend and the week before. It was way more fascinating than I expected…

Oh shit! I see it now :)

What counts as print these days though? When I first started working, we'd get literal boxes shipped to us with 1,000+ page documents inside. Now it's a cloud link that opens with a PDF reader. Does that still count as print? Genuinely curious, because I see conflicting advice depending on if its print or not.

This is super helpful! Fun fact - Erewhon is also a small chain of very high end markets in Los Angeles. Now I'm going to have to research what this word means and who came up with it first.

Thanks for the recs. I thought one of the fonts in the link was called Potato Sans, so now that one is my new personal favorite forever, even if it's actually called Pontano Sans. :D

Dyslexie was one of the first fonts I looked at specifically for accessibility purposes. Unfortunately, despite it's utility, it looks too much like a 'fun' font for our documents. Our reports are publicly published for the legal/administrative record, and need to reflect that level of professionalism. :/

Someone else suggested a font that's helpful for vision impaired people that I will take forward in this process, so maybe I can get a different accessible font through. Really appreciating the thoughtfulness for people with various reading challenges!

Cool cool cool. Really valuable feedback. Thanks for dropping by.

Thanks for the font rec. I despise Word but have colleagues who would be unable to function in something like LaTeX. Oh well...

I didn't know that! It's going in the pile for further consideration.

Out of curiosity, what font were you using before?

gotcha. Serif fonts seem more readable to me in every setting, but they also look stuffy. ¯\(ツ)/¯

Definitely need to avoid giant fixed-width fonts. My reports often run close to 100 pgs with Times New Roman, and using a typewriter font would blow them up even more. I'll look into the open source suggestions, thanks!
