TAdER — Text Adaptability is Essential for Reading
The TAdER Project aims to encourage product managers to include specific text customization functionality in their products (including Adobe Reader for PDF, e-book readers, web browsers, and other 'user agents') through:
- research related to text customization and the needs of people with low vision, dyslexia, and related conditions and situations that impact reading, including the needs of older people.
- raising awareness of the importance of Text Customization for Readability, and increasing Understanding of Users' Needs to Customize Text Display.
