Applicability of a computer retinal model for scale-dependent investigation of legibility problems by Gábor Dömötör, András Horváth

“…Although the simulation is imperfect, the software can perform significantly more measurements than human experiments with higher uniformity and give reproducible legibility information about significantly more fonts in various circumstances.In addition to the two scaling methods used in the literature (x-height, font-height), the tests are also performed with two other self-developed scaling methods, which provide a fairer comparison in the case of non-standard character types.This paper contains the legibility measurement results for 22 fonts under various simulated scenarios. …”
