  • Publication number: 20060288271
    Abstract: Production of printed or otherwise produced easier comprehensible and faster readable texts in the mode of columnar notional arrangement, in which the texts are written in columns and consecutive lines in these columns comprise sets of consecutive words, wherein phrases of the original text have been apportioned so as to constitute partial or self-sufficient notional entities and wherein these lines have their beginnings or their ends lying along a straight line perpendicular to the common direction thereof or wherein these lines have their geometrical means lying along a straight line normally oriented to the direction thereof, such straight lines passing through the geometrical means constituting an axis of symmetry being followed by the reader's eyes after a certain habituation, thereby achieving a more efficient, faster and more relaxed reading, as well as of texts in which the differentiated writing of selected words renders a selected summary.

  • Patent number: 6227576
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a reading system and method for printing texts for a more comfortable, faster and even superfast reading and for the facilitation of acquiring reading skills for very young pupils, in which the printed pages of the texts have one or more columns of individual isolated words. The individual isolated words which constitute each column run vertical to the straight ideal axis of said column and the beginning and the end of each word are as symmetrical as possible to said ideal axis which thusly runs through the middle of each word. The words can then be read in a perpendicular fashion, from top to bottom. As the length of each words is within the visual angle of the reader's eye, the system of the invention directs the reader's eye in following the ideal axis while reading without shifting the eyes from one side to the other, thusly rendering the reading of each column much more comfortable as well as faster than that of other types of printed texts.
