I tried several versions of that font... not the one that comes with readers that seems to me very dirty, I think version2 is the one I'm using, but not sure.

Dyslexic or not I enjoy much more reading that way.
other fonts that helps are Verdana and comic sans.
There are different types of dyslexia. You should get tested. My wife has three types. Two of them affect her ability to read and she likes to read. One is the standard everyone thinks of when the think dyslexia. The letters can become incomprehensible. For example, sometimes she cannot read a stop sign. She knows it is a stop sign by the shape, but the word makes no sense. The other is that the words move on the pages when she is trying to read. They most often affect her when she is tired.
