There is no way to find out just to do it and assess the typographical grey of the whole paragraph.

Even the font that is used on the sample is a bit small for my taste (and eyesight). Being able to select smaller margins or left justification might produce a bit better result, but such advanced features are not available on a premium e-ink reader from Amazon. |

I have to say, I had no idea that vegan was more than just a food thing. Honestly, this whole leather cover thing has come as a complete surprise to me. Do vegans also avoid other leather products, like leather belts or leather shoes? Wallets too?

Actually the special edition Voyage cover is rather different from that. I have this cover and really like it. While everyday use will add little scratches or character marks, it is smooth to the touch, not soft. There is no nap or velvet-like feel to it.

The font the OP posted is the smallest one I can read comfortably. I just wanted to see if smaller fonts had the same type of spacing. |
