Fontal Awareness

Recommended Posts

It is supposed to draw you attention more to the content as more of your awareness is focused on the reading.

 

I am going to give it go and start font converting things and see if I can detect any difference.

As far as the wing dings go .... I should have expected that ... coming from a

A combat wombat! Cute little fella, except for those claws. I can see how a shirt made from one might scratch.
