check colour use in text, graphs, graphics and illustrations
for indication of the result of grey-scale printing (sometimes inaccurately
called black and white printing) - invaluable to be able to preview on
screen without a printout. Means that any colours that are too close
when viewed in greyscale, can be colour adjusted during editing.
Its already in the pdfview.exe (MUPDF a lightweight PDF and XPS viewer) project
(Atrifex Software Inc) http://www.mupdf.com/ and very effective there.
It is activated in their viewer, like everything else they do, by a keyboard
key, c (information in info.txt - does not appear in the Help About box)
