The designers of multimedia packages here at the OU are very fond of using
anti-aliased fonts in their software. My feeling is that, although these
make for very pretty screens, they are less clear than conventional, single
tone, vector fonts particularly when viewed with screen magnification
software.
Do other people have views on this or better still does anyone know of any
research that has been done into legibility criteria which I can use to
support the case for easy to read screens.
