Quick accessibility test: Typography

Text formatting plays an important role in making content easy to read for all. While each person has their own preferences, simple and commonly used fonts are easier to recognise and read, as is left-aligned text. 

Check that only a few simple fonts are consistently used across your website, and that text on all pages is left-aligned. 

A page from the TetraLogical website where a simple font is used and all text is left aligned. 

Also, check that bold, italic and all-capital text is not used for long blocks of content, as they can have a negative impact on content legibility.  

The page from the TeatraLogical website does not contain any bold, italic or all-capital text.
