Well in general things begin with pdf/print, then if going further you
have to provide raw material. With visualy faked pdf you have no
chance.

Yes we can always tweak everything but definitly not a regular usage.

that you can't cut trought. So nope.

print/pdf.

It's pretty surprising and disappointing that such a tool like
Evolution doesn't fully handle black themes/accessibility.
I won't hit you but it really, really deserve an prioritary update and
I pray and cry for it!

Maybe there is a bug/request roadmap somewhere?

Thanks a lot.
