Typographic Readability

Typographic Readability is a typographic construct that denotes the degree to which textual content structured through experimental design variables such as typeface geometry, spatial arrangement, and graphic modulation can be efficiently and accurately processed by a reader, distinguishing it from general legibility by emphasizing cognitive fluency in unconventional typographic forms.
