<h2>What is a (universal) script grammar?</h2>
<div class="article-excerpt">The notion of a script grammar is elaborated through considering the importance of users and their perceptual processes and connecting these to material images and methods of production. There is much to ponder and debate as David Březina seeks to describe characters in a way that is relevant to recognition, rather than technology.

<h2>Examining the research methods used by legibility legends Tinker and Paterson</h2>
<div class="article-excerpt">Tinker’s books are frequently cited providing a helpful summary of the legibility studies he conducted with Paterson starting in 1928. But unfortunately, if we look closely at the details of their methods, we may detect some flaws.
