So having a non-human fantasy dwarf is fine, but people being able to read (modern English, no less) is too unrealistic?

I think you're assuming a non-human fantasy dwarf here.

None of them really look very human

The stylized shortness of everyone obfuscates it somewhat, but I've never seen a person in a fantasy setting dressed like that with that weapon and facial hair who wasn't a fantasy dwarf. It's a very reasonable assumption.
