  1. Click the cogwheel:
  2. Select "Fonts"
  3. Tick the box labelled "Download fonts when needed", if it is not already ticked
  4. Select "OpenDyslexic" from the dropdown
  5. Click "Apply settings"
  6. Refresh the page

To read the OpenDyslexic font properly, you may need to increase the zoom level in your web browser. In most browsers, this is done by pressing Ctrl+ (or ⌘ Cmd+ on Mac).

@font-face {font-family:OpenDyslexic;src:url('https://github.com/antijingoist/open-dyslexic/raw/master/otf/OpenDyslexic-Regular.otf');font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;}
@font-face {font-family:OpenDyslexic;src:url('https://github.com/antijingoist/open-dyslexic/raw/master/otf/OpenDyslexic-Bold.otf');font-weight:bold;font-style:normal;}
