This paragraph

Have you ever visited a Web page and found it illegible because the text color is hard to see against the background color? Text placed over a picture can cause similar problems. Put some thought into the colors you choose for your background and text. (You'll learn about setting your Web page's background color on page 77.) For best results, make you text contrast highly with the background. If you have really long passages of text, help your readers out by using dark text on a light background-a combo that makes for the easiest reading.

Within the Colors section, click the Background and Text drop-down menus to choose colors.)

problem. Just go to File -> Properties and click the Formatting tab. Within
the Colors section, click the Background drop-down menu and then pick your
new favorite color.
