Abstract
Perceptual distortion of printed text can sometimes be reduced by placing upon the page a sheet of coloured plastic (overlay). The colour that best reduces the distortion differs from one individual to another and may need to be selected with precision. A set of overlays has been developed that samples the CIE UCS diagram systematically. The overlays are robust and have a matte finish. They can be combined in an intuitive way to provide a wide range of chromaticities.Keywords
