NDC Melbourne - 210 x 297: UX Design In The Physical World

We know the importance of UX, and there is a lot of information out there about good design principles - when on a digital screen. But what about one of the most prevalent interfaces that we all encounter? Whether it’s the contract for your mortgage or bills from suppliers, printed documents are still one of the major ways in which we interact with our users. This talk covers design issues and tips unique to the UX of the physical printed world.
(210 x 297 are the dimensions of an A4 page in mm.)

A refreshing change of pace at #NDCMelbourne with @ItsTechBec talking about how tech messes up paper documents. Love this vibe, including accessibility shoutouts. pic.twitter.com/JcgU9oVDLC

Usually just simplifying layouts and adding print queries is enough for "the printed interface" but it is great to hear from another Perthian at #DevWorld about the things we should really care about... yes, printers are evil!

I think this block has been my favourite at #DevWorld 2019, from a personal lightbulb moment after hearing about keychain sharing, to learning I’m not the only one who hates the UX of parking machines and the “real” problems of designing for printing. Great talks all round.
