摘　　要：The success of typing and text understanding at deaf children was tested in this work. The success was tested with two computer fonts. The first computer font used was Times New Roman, and the second font used was newly created font for the purpose of this research （Finger Font）. The aim of this survey was to prove the necessity of Finger Font usage in education of deaf children （typing, understanding, and linguistic competence）. The hypothesis was that： Deaf children will understand standard fonts better with possibility of transformation to Finger Font and vice versa. The researches point that deaf children make mistakes at writing/typing and also they have problems with understanding of standard letters/fonts. The mistakes at typing were evaluated separately for each font. The experimental group was trained with experimental program where they used transformation of finger and standard fonts. The control was not trained with letter transformation. The results were tested with canonic discriminative analysis between experimental and control group. It is established that experimental group had better results at typing standard font when the usage of transformation is enabled. According to this result, it is necessary to include Finger Font in education of typing at deaf children.
