General Recommendations. For online reading, sans-serif fonts (e.g. Arial, Verdana) are generally considered more legible than serif fonts (Times New Roman), narrow fonts or decorative fonts. Decorative and narrow fonts in particular should be reserved for headlines and decorative texts only.
What are ADA compliant colors?
Best Practices
- Ratio: Text and interactive elements should have a color contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1.
- Color as indicator: Color should not be the only indicator for interactive elements.
- Color blindness: Red/green color blindness is the most common, so avoid green on red or red on green.
Does every bathroom have to be ADA-compliant?
The ADA requires at least one ADA-compliant restroom for each gender. Therefore, if your floor space is no more than 2,500 square feet, both restrooms will need to be compliant with the ADA. If instead, your facility has a cluster of single-use restrooms, at least half of them must be ADA-compliant.
Does braille have to be raised?
BRAILLE OR NO BRAILLE: Though the 2010 ADAAG guideline sets standards for braille signs, it does not stipulate where in a building braille signs are required. However, the ADA Standards for Accessible Design (1994) does require that signs designating permanent rooms and spaces must have raised characters and braille.
Is Times New Roman ADA compliant?

Why is Times New Roman not the default font?
Times New Roman was designed for print but looked poor onscreen.

That font is Calibri.
