Week 8- Poor Kerning

For this weeks post I will be talking about poor kerning. For my example I choose a heater located in the basement of my own house. It is rather old, but because this is something that is intended to be be used for personal heating, that instructions on operating it should be easy to read. Although the text is not impossible to read I find my self sometimes having trouble distinguishing letters because they are too close together. Another reason why I believe clear type is so important for instruments such as this are the heath factors. Something that heats obviously presents a danger if not handled properly, so for things like this kerning is an essential factor .
