font size of CD covers
Posted by tonyhunter on 11 December 2008 - 10:34pm.
Does anyone else think CD cover print is ridiculously small and nigh on unreadable for 99.9% of cases?
Yes I am getting on and the eyes and ears aint what they used to be but even my kids can't read the print on CD cover- not that they bother mind even if they were to actually buy a CD.
My suspicion is that the design blokes do the old trick of presenting the final artwork on some whoppping board where it looks great then they reduce it down to a fraction of its size for the actual cover. Stupid.
I mean why bother ?

I agree..
...it makes them unreadable. And it is not just cd covers. I recently returned a watch and got a refund because I could not read the instructions (it was a complicated radio signal type of thing and not worth the effort). Also a mobile phone with pages of miniscule detail is equally hard to follow.
