I've been wanting to find some time to work on our stylesheets for years;
what we have now is far from ideal (or attractive) IMO.  This is a good
step in the right direction - applied, thanks.

This fixes problems I noticed when trying to review the built html
documentation - the inconsistent font sizes on my high-dpi monitor
made it almost impossible to read even though I have no eyesight
problems

[PATCH] docs: improve readability for people with poorer eyesight

2018-10-04 Thread Darrick J. Wong
Hi,

So my eyesight still hasn't fully recovered, so in the meantime it's
been difficult to read the online documentation.  Here's some stylesheet
overrides I've been using to make it easier for me to read them:

My eyesight is not in good shape, which means that I have difficulty
reading the online Linux documentation.  Specifically, body text is
oddly small compared to list items and the contrast of various text
elements is too low for me to be able to see easily.

Therefore, alter the HTML theme overrides to make the text larger and
increase the contrast for better visibility, and trust the typeface
choices of the reader's browser.

For the PDF output, increase the text size, use a sans-serif typeface
for sans-serif text, and use a serif typeface for "roman" serif text.
