Hi, Mayrie!

Actually, the default font, Arial or something close, is a nightmare for 
transpositional dyslexics.  Times New Roman or other fonts have more variance 
between "mirror image" letters.  Arial is easier for low vision and persons 
with lower cognition, though.  It is a royal pain that you cannot save font 
preferences in Read Out Loud and there are no font choices in Read2Go, but 
hopefully that will change eventually.  In the mean time I read with InDaisy to 
read print on my iPad in bed, but use Read2Go when driving and listening to a 
story.

Valerie
