Abstract

The study derived seven descriptors from the pixel matrices of both the uppercase and lowercase forms of the 26 letters in the English alphabet in the regular and italic versions of the most commonly used font, Times New Roman. A factor analysis of the seven descriptors showed that a two-factor solution of letter width and height explained 76.6% of the variance. Legibility threshold of the 26 letters in the regular and italic Times Roman font and in two-case forms were collected to specify effects of letter width and height. 20 university students, 10 women and 10 men, with a mean age of 24.1 yr. (SD = 1.6) participated. They identified letters displayed initially on a PC screen at a minimum font size and enlarged gradually until the participant correctly recognized the letter. Analysis showed letters of greater width or height were more legible than those of smaller width or height. Given an oblique effect, letters in the italic Times Roman font had significantly greater width but were less legible than those in the regular font.
