Paper reports a multi-part empirical investigation using focus groups to collect real-world non-rectangular shapes, a three-axis mapping framework, and 10 hypotheses tested in controlled quantitative legibility studies. Key results: broken layouts with holes slow reading and increase difficulty; scrollable displays let variable font size beat constant-size layouts by reducing line jumps; several common intuitions are invalidated, and a set of actionable design guidelines for text on free-form displays is produced.
