I don't know how this PDF displays in other viewers, but in xpdf, mupdf,
and acroread important strings in the text are very difficult to read
because they have very low contrast with the white background.

For example, comments are in a light grey and important strings are in a
very pale yellow. Page 14 has many examples of this.

Perhaps for very young eyeballs it's not an issue, but for those of us
with many miles on our eyes it's extremely hard to read this light text on
the white background.

It would be very helpful if this situation was quickly remedied and a
revised version released.

Thanks in advance,

Rich

I don't think there have been any recent changes to the styling, but if you'd like to contribute, the place to look is probably https://github.com/django/django/tree/master/docs/_theme.

Tim,

I don't know what to do once I'm on that page but when time permits I'll
look around and see if I can find the source. Wonder if it's written in
LaTeX; if so, the typefaces can easily be change.

Thanks,

Rich
