General Notes

  • Only use pure black (#000000), pure white (#ffffff) or pure red (#ff0000) in your layouts.
  • Try to use sans-serif fonts (such as Roboto) over serif fonts (like EB Garamond).
  • Avoid italic font styles
  • Using bold font styles can improve legibility. Prefer heavier fonts over fonts with fine details. The smaller the font size, the more important this becomes.
  • Leave a ~10 Pixel space between the edge of your layout and any content
