Made to be read comfortably, on paper and on screen.

How this site is built

  • Text is set in high-contrast ink on paper. The text colors we have tested meet the WCAG AA contrast standard, in light and dark mode. Some labels and small print are small; your browser's zoom enlarges everything.
  • Most buttons are at least 44 pixels tall. Some links and smaller buttons are not yet; we are bringing them up to that size.
  • Moving through the page with the keyboard shows a clear blue ring around where you are.
  • Every page follows your device's dark mode: turn it on and the site shows light type on a dark page.
  • Pages are built to fit a phone screen, and your browser's zoom enlarges everything.
  • Animation is turned off when your device asks for reduced motion.

The paper

Every issue comes with an enlarged-type PDF digest in big, clear type, and a web edition that grows with your browser's text size.
