By chance, dyslexic DS can read easily when white text on black paper, BUT...

How/where can I get books to and stuff printed in this way? I have never seen any.

We were in London at half term and he read all these panels at a museum that were white text on black background with no problems atall, it was astonishing to him and me!

So interesting, but I have looked for stuff but found nothing as yet.

Have you heard of Irlens syndrome? My brother has is and has coloured tint's in his glassess. You may not be able to find black paper with white text, but it may be worth looking into getting him tested as there may be other colours that make it easier to read and you can get coloured overlays that help.

have you tried the iBook or kindle apps? I think you can read white text on black on them, although I don't think you can on the kindle itself. I had a quick look at iBooks (on the ipad) and managed it with one book by changing the theme to night.

Yes, ibooks on an iPod has a night setting. I guess an iPad would too.

Aghh Just lost what I typed!

You can change the colour in windows explorer.
go to tools internet options then appearance - colours and change the text and background colours. Then apply and go to accessibilty and uncheck the default colours box for websites and it will give you the colours you wanted. I was trying as we discovered DD was better with a yellow background ( and so was I but I have no other problem AFAIK)

I don't know about other things though. I would love to change the colours on other applications. Perhaps someone else will come along soon with instructions.
