Quick Tip: Typeface Familiarity
When reading, your brain can quickly build models for the typefaces and fonts you are seeing to allow quick parsing of the characters to generate meaning. Familiarity with the typeface goes a long way to supporting better reading and accessibility. Some widely available fonts that are familiar and that support good legibility are Tahoma, Calibri, Helvetica, Verdana, and Times New Roman.
