Change font type and Size with Scanmarker Reader

 A small font size is more difficult to read, especially for users with limited literacy skills and older adults.

What is the best font and size for reading?

 

 

Size. Choose a font that's at least 16 pixels, or 12 points. If many of your users are older adults, consider using an even larger font size—19 pixels or 14 points.

 

 

What is the best font for struggling readers?

 

 

Use sans serif fonts, such as Arial and Comic Sans, as letters can appear less crowded. Alternatives include Verdana, Tahoma, Century Gothic, Trebuchet, Calibri, Open Sans. Font size should be 12-14 point or equivalent (e.g. 1-1.2em / 16-19 px). Some dyslexic readers may request a larger font.
