Has anyone managed to assemble a workable font based on Dijkstra's handwriting? Last I checked, there we few attempts but they were all missing characters. http://joshldavis.com/2013/05/20/the-path-to-dijkstras-handw...

There used to be a company that offered something like this in MacWorld and PCMagazine in the early 90's.

That link went straight to malware for me on Android; downvoted.
(Btw I did not downvote you. Your downvoting a malware link seems a legit enough reason, since flagging will be judged by someone who might not see the malware warning and might take your flagging rights away or something else invisible to you because you're doing "invalid" flagging.)
Which are the inner auxiliary lines? The black grid lines? The light square box lines? The inner light horizontal lines?

Yes, it has a bunch of ad scripts that cover the page with an invisible flash element. Clicking it generates popups and popunders. Pity you're being downvoted.
I've often thought that if I wrote an ebook reader, I'd use a font that mimics the imperfections in printed works. I'd have maybe 20-30 different 'a' images, and select one randomly and then 'jitter' its positioning a bit.
I'd also use a background that looks like paper, rather than the perfect white or sepia ones current readers do. Heck, it would be easy enough to scan a few dozen blank sheets of paperback paper, and then pick one randomly for each page.
