About the ACB Large Print Guidelines
The American Council of the Blind (ACB) Large Print Guidelines specify formatting standards that make printed and digital documents readable for people with low vision. Key requirements include:
- Arial font, 18-point minimum for body text
- 22-point bold headings, 20-point bold subheadings
- Flush left alignment (never justified)
- Underline for emphasis (no italic, no bold in body text)
- 1-inch margins on all sides
- No hyphenation, no ALL CAPS formatting
This tool also enforces WCAG 2.2 AA digital accessibility requirements including document title, language setting, and heading hierarchy. Read the full guidelines reference.
