Eye Charts
Do your PowerPoint slides pass as eye-charts?
Consider the average age of your audience. If your audience is approaching middle age (like so many of us), do you think they mind having font sizes a bit bigger than expected? Or would they appreciate it?
Liz Trendowski and I realized early this year that many of us prefer a larger font size even though we can still read small font sizes. That's why we decided to use 14 point fonts in our books. Why make it hard for your audience to see what you are communicating?
Do you appreciate a presenters thoughtfulness by using a larger font size? How can you show this same thoughfulness to your audience? As Alan Weiss says - you are there to improve your audience's condition, so I propose that you use a font size that helps your audience receive your message.
