Subject: FW: Size of Captioning Font


Hi,

I was wondering if there is a standard or requirement for the size of captioning fonts?  For example, if this is the size of the screen (a standard computer monitor) are the fonts on this video too small?  Is there a Federal requirement that may make this font size non-compliant?  Should the size of the fonts be able to be changed per the user?

Any input that you may have on this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
