If you enjoy reading, but don’t want to carry around big heavy books, then you definitely want to invest in something like an e-reader . One of the best e-readers on the market is the Amazon Kindle, which comes in a variety of models to suit everyone’s needs. But when you’re reading on an e-reader, you may need to adjust the font and text size to better suit your own personal needs, as the default settings may not be for everyone.
Thankfully, your Kindle reading experience can be tweaked to however you want, and it’s quite easy. Whether you have the base model Kindle , a Kindle Paperwhite , the Kindle Colorsoft , or the Kindle Scribe, here’s how to do it.
