Can't you > change it to, say, "Light Blue 1" (or anything else other than yellow, which > is not so readable unless you use Dark Mode / Dark Themes)? Generally speaking, we use a red font. For this particular set of pages, yellow stands out best. The ink is so faint that it is most easily readable when the image is changed from its natural colour to a grey scale and with the contrast and gamma variables adjusted for the best result. When we do that, the red font does not stand out as well as the yellow. We have been using LibreCalc for this project for about seven years. We have tried different themes, and different font colours, none of which work very well for every log page. The scanned log pages vary in colour from white to a yellowish colour. Generally they were filled in with black ink, but sometimes with blue ink or with blue or red pencil. We work with logs generally from the 1860s to 1880s. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
