What pisses me off is tiny white writing on a pale yellow background. I have to 1) put on my glasses, 2) stand next to the window or a strong light source, and 3) get out the magnifying glass AND I STILL CAN’T READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! I am all in favour of a minimum 10 pt typeface and a minimum standard of contrast. Or black writing on a pale background as standard operating procedure.

Yes yellow is the worst followed by orange and light green. I’ll add that sometimes the white printed writing is fuzzy.
Drives me nuts.
