Hello
We manufacture a number of consumer products for the European market. They generally include RFID and probably BlueTooth and so are all tested against the RED for EMC and RF and EN62368 for safety.
I am having a problem with finding a definitive definition of what "legible" means when ascribed to safety and compliance information. Its easy to find the correct heights for the compliance marks but I cannot find a definitive minimum text size for other compliance information such as the company address and or instructional safeguards on the product rating label. This information is generally moulded directly into the casing and so is hard to change once it has been done.
I know the FCC part 15 sets down a minimum point size of 4 point but I cannot find any real guidance from the EU standards other than "legible" and "readily discernible under normal lighting conditions".
Can anyone point me at any guidance for the minimum acceptable character height or point size as we are needing to shoehorn in some information onto an existing product rating label space
Any assistance would be most welcome
