Hi all, Surprise that such a feature is not available. On the other hand, I have never been confronted with this in the last 10 years either! What I need to reproduce are some black LCD display "bulbs" with text inside, representing a limited number of system states. Reading your feedback I think I better drop the idea of using reversed text and go for inline graphics on the reference page instead.
Thank you all for your feedback, it has been helpful. Vriendelijke groet / Kind regards, ?

Or * Set up a single-cell table, set the cell background to black and create a paragraph tag with the font set to white. And I'd hang the table from a special Anchor paragraph tag that you only use for that purpose, so you can control the placement precisely.
