Colors specified by <BODY> tag attributes (BACKGROUND, TEXT, BGCOLOR, LINK, VLINK, and ALINK) will be ignored. The colors that you specify in the Colors
panel will be used instead.

To improve image quality:
- From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
- Choose the Display panel, if necessary.
- Select the Dither Images option.

To specify the preferred language for documents:
- From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
- Choose the Miscellaneous panel, if necessary.
- Open the Preferred Language menu and choose the language that you prefer
for displaying documents.
If you request a document that is available in multiple languages, Mosaic will
open the document in the language that you prefer, if a version in that language
is available.
This setting only affects the language used to display documents, not the
appearance of Mosaic.
- Choose the OK button.
