Thrown by different fonts

I know there is no solution except read, read, read but it is nonetheless frustrating that my ability to recognise kanji can be upset so easily by slightly different fonts - I’m talking different printed fonts not handwritten or brush strokes, which completely torpedo my reading comprehension.

I suppose I could get revenge by getting a Japanese person to try to read my handwriting (sometimes when I look back at my own notes I struggle so they would have no chance!)

If you’re comfortable trying out some userscripts, Jitai will randomize the fonts you see in your reviews so you can practice reading in fonts other than the WK default!
