Type Session 3. pt 2

How to make the text easier for older people to read (people with sight problems).

The ways we can do this is to adjust the point size, leading and we can remove spaces from inbetween paragraphs


You cannot reduce the leading, you can only increase it!
Don't take out indents on paragraphs.

The reason we keep indents with paragraphs as well as it helping show people theres a new paragraph it also makes it look like theres less text.

We have been given a page of text and asked to make it as legible as we can using the skills we have learnt.

I chose 3 columns, Arial 10 on 14.1.

And then include a picture, personally i should have used a bigger picture, but i feel the text works well and is legible.

The next task consisted of the same rules apart from the document being landscape this time.


With this task we had to use all of the text and image but keeping to the considerations learnt through the sessions.
