Update: Later I showed her playing cards and she identified number and suit with minimal difficulty (not immediate, but within 5-10 seconds). And I showed her an ace, and she pointed out the As -- so those small letters she can see but not the fat 2" letters in marker. So I made a set of cards with the letter in the center, about three-quarters of an inch tall, with a sharpie. She could identify them! This is so curious. To be continued.
