Although typography also creates images in a reader’s mind, its key purpose is to render the text into a pleasant, easy-to-read and even attractive form. Readability is affected by a great number of typographic factors. Probably the first of them to cross a layman’s mind is sufficient font size, which is important of course, but not very helpful if the other factors are not purposefully taken into account.
