A practical reading method

Prepare a Low-Vision-Friendly Passage Locator

Put chapter or named section first in large, high-contrast text. Add the page for each verified edition and one short scene cue on its own line. Test the handout at the intended print size and in grayscale before distributing it.

Use this when one or more readers use large-print copies, magnification, or high-contrast materials. A locator can be accurate yet unusable if its typography and hierarchy hide the landmark.

Method

Build the note

Example

See the boundary in practice

CHAPTER 7 appears first, followed by Large Print 132, Standard 84, and ‘after the station announcement.’

Quality check

Before you trust the note

The landmark should be findable without relying on color, compressed type, or a single edition's pagination.
