Don't go too much higher in the font size than 24 as the screen readers won't read them.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Question on kids book fonts


I think I am right in remembering that we can use either Arial or Times new Roman, right? Okay, my question is, in kids books, can we use larger pt. fonts, like 16 and 24? Nichole was showing her books on her screen to a buddy and they always wanted larger fonts. Most kids books scan at something s like 16 & 24, so I am hoping that would be okay. I am doing two of Shelley's Stanley books and would like to do them like that if it is acceptable and will still handle well in Braille.
