TypeSmith assigns Victoria a above-average readability rating of 76 out of 100. Serifs guide horizontal eye movement along the baseline, making text sizes above 9 pt highly readable in print. On screen, hinting quality determines legibility below 14 px. Screen rendering behavior varies across operating systems and browsers, making real-device testing essential for production readability validation.

High-contrast Didones can cause halation for readers with astigmatism. Prefer Garalde or Transitional cuts at text sizes for inclusive readability. For inclusive design, TypeSmith recommends testing Victoria at body sizes of 16 pixels minimum with a line height of 1.5 to ensure comfortable reading across diverse visual abilities.
