Large print materials, also known as enlarged text documents or big print resources, are specially formatted written materials designed to support individuals with low vision or visual impairments. These materials use significantly bigger fonts—typically 16 points or larger—to make reading easier and reduce eye strain. Large print versions of books, forms, manuals, and workplace documents help improve accessibility by providing clear, readable content for those who struggle with standard-sized text. This accommodation promotes inclusivity by allowing employees and students with vision challenges to access important information independently and comfortably.
To use large print materials effectively, start by selecting the appropriate font size—usually 16 to 18 points or larger—and choose high-contrast colors for readability. Provide printed or digital versions depending on user preference. Regularly update documents to keep content current and check for any formatting issues. Store materials in accessible locations or digital platforms where users can easily find them. Encourage feedback to adapt materials as needed for individual comfort and clarity.
