Quick answer
For page color and contrast, change the smallest thing that affects readability first. Test it before touching color, margins, or motion.
Page color changes the background while contrast controls how clearly text separates from it.
First change to try
Choose a page color with strong, clear text contrast. Do not make the page so dim that letters become hard to separate.
Use a real chapter, not only a settings preview.
Second change to try
If the first change is not enough, adjust line spacing or margins next.
Avoid adding several strong visual changes at once.
How to compare
Use the same page before and after the change. Read for five minutes, not five seconds.
Keep the option that reduces re-reading and line loss.
When to stop
Stop adjusting when the page is comfortable. More customization is not automatically better.
A stable setup is often easier to read with than a constantly changing one.
