WHY ACCESSIBLE PRINT MATTERS

Many learners struggle not with content, but with how it is presented.
Clear spacing, strong contrast, and predictable layout reduce cognitive load.

SAFE DEFAULTS

• A4 paper
• Portrait orientation
• 100% scale (no “fit to page”)
• Plain white or off-white paper

LINE SPACING

Wider spacing improves tracking and reduces crowding.
Avoid tightly packed lines or compressed layouts.

CONTRAST

Strong lines on a clean background are clearer.
Avoid thin grey lines or decorative textures.

BOLDER IS BETTER

Thicker lines and fewer rows per page improve clarity.
Landscape orientation can help reduce line length.

CONSISTENCY

Predictable spacing and alignment help learners orient themselves quickly.

WIDER LINES

Wider spacing allows better control and reduces fatigue.
Highlighted baselines can help letter placement.

MARGINS

Clear margins give space for hand anchoring and reduce page drift.

IMPORTANT SETTINGS

Always check:
• Scale = 100%
• No “fit to page”
• Correct orientation (portrait / landscape)

IF IT LOOKS WRONG

Reprint one page only.
If spacing changes, a scaling option is still active.
