c7williams Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Has anyone found a good font that seems to display the best on a matrix? My matrix is 18" by 96" with 500 pixels spaced 1.2" on center. Matrix will be about 50 feet away from audience. I tested a bit and found Arial to be the best but i would like some suggestions.

MattBrown Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Fonts in the "Bahnschrift" family are good, as this font was originally designed for signage (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DIN_1451). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome thanks Matt, I will test that font out tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael S Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I have a 24 x 48 matrix and have found Lucida Sans, Calibri, and Target Delta. Size 76, 70, 69 to work well. They specifically mention Lucida Sans in one of their pixel editor tutorial videos on YouTube. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
