Consider a more 'handwriting-y' font for tables #113

Open PatReynolds opened 4 years ago

The original design for the new websites had san serif (ie. any old sans serif you have hanging around).

Displays on Kir'ks as comic sans.

Decision: use source sans pro, but this story is to consider using a more 'handwriting-y' font for tables.

E1 U3 P 3 C?

More "handwriting-y" fonts may be less accessible for people with dyslexia or other sight issues. One potential is Open Dyslexic https://opendyslexic.org/ . While it doesn't look very "handwriting-y" it has the thick-and-thin of an ink pen and would be particularly useful for tables because they will contain unfamiliar words in personal names and place names - words that may be misread by voice software.
