I work at a consulting engineering firm and write a lot of reports that are read by the public. I have an opportunity to recommend a different font for all of our written documents and am looking for something more modern/fresh than Times New Roman. Also open to recommendations for purpose specific communities about typography/fonts.

It's hard to explain exactly why but switching my ereader over made a night and day difference in my comprehension and reading speed.

That happened to me when I started using OpenDyslexic. I read so much more now, and I already read a lot.

Out of curiosity, what font were you using before?
