Study

non-linear magnification: An experimental study. Technical
Report 459, Department of Computer Science, Indiana University, April
1996.
- Abstract:
- This paper presents the results of an experimental study
in which users were given the task of reading and searching text
files with both a paging viewer and a ``magnifying'' viewer
which allows the entire file to fit on a single screen, with a
bar of magnification which can be used to make portions
readable. A comparison is made between the two different viewers
on two different types of text layout, one highly structured,
and the other with little structure. Results indicate a
suitability for using the magnifying browser on structured text.
