Bracken Knoll draws its sample in an ornate, blackletter-like display texture. In the cap line, the strokes taper into sharp tips and the outlines carry fine breaks that can disappear when the word is small; this makes size and background part of the choice.

Bracken Knoll: size and readability
Compare the light and dark versions at your output size, then inspect the actual words rather than relying on the font name or category.
Bracken Knoll at six size and contrast settings
Each panel uses the same wording at 16, 24 and 48 px. The dark panels reverse the ink and background so you can inspect whether thin joins stay visible in this render.
A central-scanline ink-interval estimate on the sampled o, n and H gives 0.0173 em for H, the lowest of those three samples. It is not a global minimum or a measurement of the B/R/K joins. These controlled previews show selected sizes and backgrounds, not a universal readability threshold.

Check before using
