Will you offer the ability to change the font size in editing mode? Maybe I’m not seeing this and it’s already built in. As an older person having the option to use a noticeably larger would be greatly appreciated. (Actually, Lettera becomes almost unusable without larger font sizes in editing.) Love the basic layout and easy ability to navigate to various headers … wonderfully done so far!
(I know I can change editor font size using command-plus, but that’s not a great solution overall. I would want to have a set established font size the works for each new note.)
@matteo Thanks for the quick reply! Ah, I never even considered that the size is preserved on relaunch. That helps a lot! Glad to hear dedicated typography settings are coming … in the short run preserved font size on relaunch, and across documents, will work for me!
Font options are essential. Your basic font is attractive, but not practical for many writers. I need a monospace font, and your Bear font doesn’t show italics very well.
I 100% agree. Font options (size, as well as alternative font options like Bear has) are really useful. I love being able to print off notes, or convert them to PDFs, and sometimes a different font can really help readability on paper, especially for people with vision issues, or just look nicer in style, like a Serif font for a recipe or personal note.
I agree, the same Bear font options would be ideal! I love the Lettera app so far, but this isn’t a font I would ever normally write with, so it’s hard to even test use it as my primary app for writing since I always use times new roman and similar for academic writing.
Absolutely! I used to be a stickler for Times New Roman everywhere, but I work at a school we have gotten really strict on the “Universal Design for Learning” and the WCAG standards for public institutions here in the US that demand an accessible San Serif font. I have coped by finding some that I like better than the standard Arial or Helvetica in the Google Open Fonts. I am jamming with “Work Sans” these days, but I also found one you might like if you are a Times New Roman devotee. Try taking a look at “Merriweather”, it is of a similar style but a bit easier to read due to larger size and more open and spaced lettering. The most readable Serif font I was able to find for reading at a distance with my glasses off was Roboto Serif but it is kinda a semi-serif and quite large compared to most other serif fonts, but similar in size to most of the San-serif fonts. - I am redesigning a lot of instructional documents so have gone down the font rabbit hole of late.
One of my clients uses Roboto on their blog, and it’s quite nice. It reads a bit like a monospaced font, but it’s not.
I generally write in Consolas, because I want a monospace font because of markdown code. But with wysiwyg markdown, I could change to a proportional font.
However, when I edit, I generally change fonts. Either in a preview in iA Writer, or with Marked, because you see things differently when you read something in a different font.
