### 22.7 Defining text colors for HTML

The best way to adjust text colors for HTML output is to assign colors to output formats; see:

§7.6.5 Specifying inline properties for paragraph and character formats

§7.6.6 Specifying block properties for paragraph formats

§8.3 Defining shading format components

Those methods use CSS. Consider using the method described here only if you cannot use CSS.
