Abstract :
We aim to analyze the effect of varied typefaces on font readability using ten most popular fonts. The study has been conducted with only one variable parameter which is font face. Other parameters affecting font legibility like font size, line spacing and character spacing have been kept constant. The study for this survey was conducted on postgraduate students within the age group of 20 - 25 years.
