What fonts / styles do you use to review (with Anki)? - bcrAn - 2011-07-14 In order to improve my reviewing experience I have installed a few plugins and tweaked with the fonts a little bit, however I was wondering what other people do to customize their reviews.

What fonts / styles do you use to review (with Anki)? - Asriel - 2011-07-15 @rich_f comic sans brain hack? Something like... Poorly written things stick in memory better? I vaaaaguely remember something like that... Right? How's it working for you? @Es2kay -- similar idea? I actually like your font/color choices. What font is that? I kinda wanna steal it. As for me, my fonts are totally stock. Whatever anki came with as a default font is what I'm using. Kind of bland, but I never thought abot changing it until I came upon this thread.

I like the kawaii fonts but I feel out of place if things are not as generic as possible. What fonts / styles do you use to review (with Anki)? - rich_f - 2011-07-15 @Asriel-- yeah, that thing. It's hard to say, because I am my own experimental group, and I don't have a control group handy. (Unless I could somehow create a duplicate of myself that was exact down to the subatomic level, including mental state and everything.) I do prefer the look of YozFont to the more standard stuff, especially butt-ugly Mincho, so on that level it works. But there's no way to know if I retain more information, or retain it better. GoGo placebo effect? Even that's good for something. Maybe in the near future I'll change it to one of the Sumo fonts, to help learn how to read those signs for a while. Change is good.

When I bought the RtK iPhone app, I noticed the font used in the app and the books were the same, so I opened the ipa file in WinRAR and extracted the font. It's called "Kyoukasho Handwritten." It's also the same font used at http://www.saiga-jp.com/kanji_dictionary.html, which is what my Japanese professor told me to refer to for writing kanji.

What fonts / styles do you use to review (with Anki)? - codebeard - 2011-07-22 For RtK, I use IPA Mincho for the top part, and KanjiStrokeOrders for double-checking the stroke order. Sure, IPA Mincho is not the most beautiful font, but the proportions within each character tend to be nice so it's good for learning to write.
