Totally different. Screen readers have nothing to do with Screen reading. Work in progress article. Expand as you understand more. Gutenberg Forever (talk) 01:25, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Proposed name change
[edit]I recently added some links to this article, and removed the Orphan tag. Most of the linked articles contain the phrase "on-screen reading". I propose that the name of this article be changed to 'On-screen reading'. This would better differentiate it from the 'Screen reading software' article and the several others that are (or should be) linked to it, many of which contain the phrase "screen reading".Downsize43 (talk) 05:29, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for de-orphaning this article. I have yet to see any articles use the term 'On-screen reading'. This may be another subject entirely. Its popular usage has been "screen reading" so far. Are you sure all the wikilinks are correctly pointing to the appropriate article? Gutenberg Forever (talk) 18:23, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
- It's much better to go by recent articles written by experts, rather than how Wikipedia is currently using its terms. Gutenberg Forever (talk) 18:25, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi: I'm just saying that the sentence "The advantage of DjVu is that it is possible to take a high-resolution scan (300-400 DPI), good enough for both on-screen reading and printing, and store it very efficiently. Several dozens of 300 DPI black-and-white scans can be stored in less than a megabyte." is unsourced, and even if it were sourced it would have nothing to do with the set of articles that are being used with the "Screen reading" article. It is the idea of "Screen reading" that is the focus. At heart, how is screen reading different from print reading? It is being discovered that there are in fact significant differences. Book scanning and the Cambria typeface are unrelated to this topic, but they may tangentially touch upon it. A comparison of e-book formats may be able to discuss differences with reading on different screens. Ultimately, we should work to expand upon the set of articles that are related to the topic of screen reading. Gutenberg Forever (talk) 00:43, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
