Abstract
Display data comprising text and a background are processed. A combination of the text and background is evaluated against one or more objective criteria to provide one or more objective values. A determination is made whether the one or more objective values exceed one or more respective thresholds that are indicative of text-background combinations that are difficult to read. The text or the background or both are adjusted if any of the one or more thresholds is exceeded, so that the one or more thresholds are no longer exceeded after the adjusting.
