iA � Designing for iPad: Reality Check: "Reality check: Wow, this thing is sharp!
After two months of printing, we did get the typography quite right, but there was another surprise waiting for us: The sharpness. With its high pitched light contrast, iPad is a miracle picture book or photo frame—but designing long text passages for good readability is still a tough matter. If, executed carefully, text on an iPad comes quite close to printed matters, but it needs much care and specific screen typographic know-how.
Web body text sizes (14–16px) feel too small on iPad while bigger sizes clash with the canvas dimensions. This leads to all sorts of grid restrictions."
