Onscreen English fonts have a critical role in communicating information. Although there has been research into the legibility of these fonts, no study has yet explored font legibility in the context of ethnicity across font types. The present study attempts to fill this void. 402 Thai and non-Thai participants completed questionnaires that displayed texts using serif, sans serif and script fon...

Using lower-case fonts varying only in serif size (0%, 5%, and 10% cap height), we assessed legibility using size thresholds and reading speed. Five percentage serif fonts were slightly more legible than sans serif, but the average inter-letter spacing increase that serifs themselves impose, predicts greater enhancement than we observed. RSVP and continuous reading speeds showed no effect of se...
