Hi…

Given that reMarkable 2 does not have a backlight, nor does it support color (grayscale) schemes, are there any tricks for improving the visibility of documents in lower light environments, without resorting to some external (e.g., portable) light source?

For handwriting, in particular, is there any way of creating lined notebooks with stronger (i.e., more clearly visible) lines in reMarkable 2?

For example, clone the Lined (small, medium or large) template but with stronger lines?

Thanks.

    There’s 2 options as far as I know:

    1. With some creativity: create a PDF file on your computer to serve as your “empty notebook” with required backgrounds, which you then write on top of on the RM2
    2. With some creativity + light hacking: create your own custom template PNG file with the darker lines on your computer and transfer it to your device via SSH. You can make it appear in the template selection screen. There’s other posts on this subreddit which detail the process. I think it still comes with a caveat that custom templates need to be reinstalled after each software update.
