This chapter distinguishes between typefaces and fonts and between legibilityand readability. A variety of objective methods have been developed for measuring the legibility of printed material, and many have been taken over into research on reading from screens. Researchers have also collected subjective reports from participants regarding the legibility and other properties of presented material. This chapter also describes how typographers define the size of typefaces and which aspects are likely to affect the legibility of material.
