Technical communicators can make reading easier by
using type-design principles proven to enhance reading
performance. This paper, based on the author’s master’s
thesis of the same name, revealed research related to the
graphic design of text and concluded that further research
is needed to measure the impact of typography on readers
(expert, intermediate, and novice) and the ways in which
they read (to do, to read to learn, to read to assess, and to
read to learn to do).
