    “It’s possible to blow away three-quarters of our readers simply by choosing the wrong type. If you rely on words to sell, that should concern you deeply.” Colin Wheildon author of Type & Layout: Are You Communicating or Just Making Pretty Shapes?
  29. DESIGN BASIC TRAINING THE DESIGN TOOLKIT Elements of design Typography

    In print... 12 percent of participants effectively comprehended a paragraph set in sans-serif. 67 percent effectively comprehended a paragraph set in serif typeface. Those who read the sans-serif version said they had a tough time reading the text and “continually had to backtrack to regain comprehension.” 66 percent were able to comprehend Garamond 31.5 percent Times New Roman 12.5 percent Helvetica (out of a total of 1,010,000 people surveyed).
