Abstract
Do Braille Cells Influence Legibility of Texts for the Sighted?
Highlights
In packaging design, self-adhesive labels have an important role for declarations, especially for languages of smaller nations
As labels are important for information on declarations, especially for languages of smaller nations, the printing quality and legibility of labels need to be taken into consideration
The aim of the research was to establish how overprinted Braille cells made with varnish influence legibility of printed information and if there is a possibility to use a declaration text with overprinted Braille
Summary
Self-adhesive labels have an important role for declarations, especially for languages of smaller nations. The impact of packaging design and appropriate labelling has increased, influencing and directing people's purchasing decisions [1, 2]. Especially in the pharmaceutical industry, require the text in Braille format to inform blind or partially sighted users [4,5,6,7]. The most commonly used technique is paper or cardboard embossing [8]. Due to the thickness and dimension of the surface of labels being small, Braille letters cannot be made using a standard embossing technique, but the TRUCT (transparentresinous-ultraviolet-curing-type) method [9], a multilayer screen or UV inkjet printing technology
