Saw this on Ancestr Ancestry Quick Tip 10/20/2004 - Archive -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yellow Plastic Helps Make Copies More Legible If you are making a copy and the original seems too light to read, simply place a sheet of yellow Milar down on the glass, then put your original over that and continue the copying process. (Milar can be purchased in most office-supply stores.) No other color but yellow will do the trick. This has proven invaluable through the years in copying receipts and other information that were almost too hard to read

This sounds like a good tip. Perhaps it works in the same way as the coloured lenses used by children with dyslexia so that they can see the letters more easily. (Just a thought!!) I wonder why only yellow will work?
