Abstract
In recent years the Craphic Information Research Unit at the Royal College of Art has been examining the effects of poor quality printing and copying on legibility, funded by grants from the British Library Research and Development Department. Two investigations are described in detail here. These are experiments relating to the effects of image quality and show—through on legibility, with some reference to background noise.
