Meat and Potatoes
This mod replaces various default game fonts with Atkinson Hyperlegible to ease readability for dyslexic and low vision players like myself.
There are two files, one that replaces only the GUI fonts, and the other replaces books, letters, and slate fonts. You can use both together.
There are lots of other mods that do something similar, but none of them use this font specifically. I've personally found Hyperlegible to be a godsend for my flavor of vision issues and I hope you do to.
DIY Font Replacer was helpful in making the font changes in this mod happen. If there is a font that works better for you, it may be best to follow these steps to replace the default game font. I have no plans to add other font choices unless there is a huge demand for it.

Pairs Well With
Easier Text by hypermorphic - This isn't a pak mod, but it offers a lot of cusomizability for size and clarity, including a black text box and higher contrast. It's even compatible with all of Caites' Mods. My mod will override their font choice since paks always override loose files, if you decide to use both.
Immersive Reading by lexo1000 - This mod not only provides a nice, clear, font for your interface, but it also can improve the books, letters, and discs in the game as well. If you use the books only version keep in mind it is not compatible with my book fonts. Technically if my mod loads after this one, it should replace their UI font choice with mine, but I haven't tested this and don't know if it will cause you any problems.
Bigger Text Font by ChizFreak - If you prefer the vanilla text, but just need it to be a bit bigger, this mod will suit your needs quite well. To be safe make sure my font mods load after this one if you decide to use them together. Unless you use their loose files version instead of their pak version.
Alternative English Fonts by DAIDAIMENGYOU - Not only do they have a lot of nice, readable, font choices, they provide a useful tutorial and places to find free fonts. The DIY font mod I linked to above was more helpful for me, but this one may be great for you if the other one just didn't click.
Comic Sans by klementineQt - Okay, hear me out, this mod is meant as a joke, but Comic Sans is actually a pretty good font for a lot of dyslexic readers. It's sans-serif, has non-repetitive and simple rounded letters, and even kerning that keeps the spacing consistent. If this font works for you then don't put off using it simply because it's a bit silly. Obviously my mod will not work alongside this one, since they both replace the default game fonts.
Balthazar Font by Banjomir777 - Is Balthazar more your speed? This mod will work well for you. While it replaces the default GUI fonts it probably doesn't replace the book and scroll ones (I haven't tested that myself.) You could use it with my book fonts file though. It'll obviously not be compatible with my GUI file.
Controller UI Font (Alegreya) by RayearthZ - This mod replaces the keyboard and mouse font with the controller font. If that's something you're looking for then here it is.
Readable Font for Item Descriptions by ss7877 - The item description color can be a bit dark, and if you want it to be lighter this mod does that for you. My font mods don't touch font colors, so they should work together. This isn't really a feature I plan to add to my font mods so they remain compatible with mods like these.
Bigger Mouse Cursors by wes47 - The mouse cursor for the game is very nice, but not if you have to squint to know where you're pointing it. A bigger cursor is a must have for me, though I downloaded the BG2 version for nostalgia reasons.
