THE kilt-wearing Scot who became "the father of e-reading" has died in America.
Bill Hill was an innovator in the reading of text on screen, and one of the inventors of Microsoft's ClearType, a font-display technology for computers.
Mr Hill, from Glasgow, wrote for Scottish newspapers for 18 years before joining software firm Aldus in 1986.
