A nice font collection for your e-book reader (Part I)
Happy new year everyone!
During the Christmas holidays, I spent some time trying to find an alternative to Bookerly font, which I have been using on my Kindle Paperwhite since day one.
After trying a lot of different alternatives, I ended up with the following ones, which you can download and test them yourself:
- Linux Libertine (source)
- Google Literata (36pt version) (source)
- Noto Serif (source)
- Charis SIL (source)
- Bitter ht (source)
If you use a Kindle, just unpack the zip and put the fonts to “fonts” directory.
If you don’t have a Kindle and want to use the best kindle font on your e-book reader or app, you can get it using the following link:
As I am writing this words, the font of my preference is Linux Libertine.
