Dear Dis-forum
I have been asked to advise my institution on the following
(appearing in another Jiscmail list) :
--------------------------------
There is a debate at XXXX University XXXX about fonts to be used in
our exam papers to conform with requirements of the Disability
Discrimination Act.
The university is trying to insist that all exams appear in arial
font. We are arguing that this font is not suitable for maths exams
because it does not show maths well and also because all the
students' course materials are in the LaTeX computer modern font.
Has anyone else had similar problems and what was the outcome?
----------------------------------
Comments/advice welcomed.
