Dyslexia friendly Roll20

Score + 23
roll20 should look into a dyslexia friendly character sheets and features in game. Such as… A choice of Dyslexia friendly fonts. Bold or underlined options. Introducing simple colours on the character sheet. Single colour backgrounds. Avoid background patterns/pictures. Highlighter tool. Line and paragraph spacing option. Bullet point/number point option. Use sufficient contrast levels between background and text. Thanks x 
Would be definitely a useful feature to have!

Agreed. Additional options would be helpful.
That sounds like it would be a really handy option to have!
Can't support this enough :)
This would be a worthwhile addition to R20
For sure

+1 to Overhaul of Roll20 visual format and user interface, focused on accessibility (including dyslexic accommodation). This will take-in several existing Suggestions like "Dark Mode" and "Outline Fonts", but this request highlights the larger goal of facilitating access for everyone. These kinds of suggestions could go hand-in-hand: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6835578/dark-mode-roll20-so-bright/?pagenum=1" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6835578/dark-mode-roll20-so-bright/?pagenum=1</a> <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1546021/expanded-text-tool-outlined-font" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1546021/expanded-text-tool-outlined-font</a> <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1325647/themes-and-campaign-customization" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1325647/themes-and-campaign-customization</a> Roll20 being Browser-based has an upside/advantage, there are some Font and Background Color changes users can make such as Forum &amp; Chat font appearance changes, by changing it in your web browser settings, or a browser extension/add-on or accessibility mode. Regardless, Roll20 website in many places would do well to implement accessibility best-practices and user interface options. I hope for this!
Doubling this! Dyslexia and ADHD person here, who really struggles with the formatting of the text and the layout of the character sheets. If there was a way that roll20 could create an option to check "dyslexia friendly mode" and the character sheets changed visually to something like these: <a href="https://www.geeknative.com/70088/dd-character-sheets-for-players-with-dyslexia/" rel="nofollow">https://www.geeknative.com/70088/dd-character-sheets-for-players-with-dyslexia/</a> &nbsp; or being able to change the fonts on everything to the dyslexic font would be so so soooooooo helpful. Can't tell you the amount of times i have to sit there between turns looking over and over and over and over at a spell to try and infer what is going on, because I keep getting stuck in infinite loops on one line. The font is probably totally fine for players without dyslexia, im sure, but man does it make you feel stupid when this happens.
