"Our findings to date show that no one font works for everyone," says Rick Treitman, Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Adobe's Readability Initiative, part of the Readability Consortium. "We process information better when we're able to read fonts that work best for each of us."
Accessibility is a pillar of great design - it shouldn't be an afterthought, whether you're making a poster, a video, a magazine or a website. When you use a clear, legible typeface, you make it much easier for people to understand and engage with your content.
To save you trawling the internet (and getting sidetracked by browsing free web fonts), we've gathered the best fonts for accessibility, both free and paid.
