I almost always use Firefox, which also has some kind of accessibility 
tool, but I didn’t understand what it was telling me so I tried Chrome

A standard theme is probably a good idea. But it will probably make the 
manual look quite a bit different from before. I think that’s ok, if the 
colors look good.
