- BurningFrog 6y agoWe can and do make ink of any color. Black is just the most popular. And we could make paper of any color. But it's probably true that printing white ink on black paper is harder. Then again, if that was the best way to read, we should see some, if expensive such books.
- AstralStorm 6y agoThe problem is that black paper would still have some reflectance depending on the surrounding lighting, potentially rather higher than reflectance of black ink.
