This study evaluated the effects of age (30s and 55s), viewing distance (50 cm, 80 cm), font type (Lanting in simple, Lanting in complex, Yahei in simple, Yahei in complex) on the legibility of Chinese characters by using the two legibility measures (minimum character size for 100% correctness and minimum character size for the least comfort). Twenty subjects in each age group read the 12 word groups (two characters in each word group, character size varied from 4.5 pt to 18 pt) presented on a paper. Subjects subjectively rated the reading legibility of the word groups on a 3-point scale (1- indistinct, 2- distinct but need cost a little attention, 3- very distinct). According to the ANOVA procedure, age and viewing distance significantly affected the two dependent variables (p < 0.05). The younger group could see character sizes smaller than the old group could and the viewing distance of 50 cm showed character about 1pt smaller than those at a 80 cm viewing distance. There are no significant differences in font types. From a comparison of the results for correctness and comfort, people generally preferred larger character sizes to those that they could read. The findings of this study may provide basic data and guidelines for setting of character size and font type to improve the legibility of characters written in Chinese.
