"Super Giant Print" Edition in Evaluation
In response to needs which have come to our attention, we are evaluating a Super Giant Print Edition. This edition is intended for those readers who desire a printed text size larger than the Large Print edition, and also larger than what would be a “Giant Print” edition.
We are therefore anticipating an adoption of the industry standard size and term for a “Super Giant Print” edition. If suitable, the RASV could be available in three printed text sizes:
Standard Edition (9 point font)
Large Print Edition (11 point font)
Super Giant Print Edition (15 point font)
A sample is available in the Download section; please refer to the “Super Giant Print Interior”.
Update
After additional evaluations and customer feedback, the physical size and weight necessary to manufacture this edition is greater than pragmatically possible for regular use. In close coordination with community members who have submitted the request, we are in agreement to defer further pursuit of a "Super Giant Print Edition" at this time. We are, however, evaluating other means by which we provide an edition of the Refreshed ASV to meet this need. Please stay tuned.
