Dubberly Design Office analyzed typography on Kindle and suggested ways the experience of reading might be improved.
We produced a sequence of four reports leading to specific recommendations:
- The first report provided an overview of typography.
- The second described how computers have changed type and typesetting.
- The third described how Kindle implements type and typography.
We also produced a Kindle Font Specimen Book as a supplement to the third report. - The fourth report suggested ways the experience of reading on Kindle might be improved.
All four reports are organized in a similar structure, beginning with an overview and preceding from glyphs to pages to books to collections for Latin and other character sets.
