ColorTester1.0 (33)

If you feel that you do not have control over the user settings, then it is likely that you want to analyze the contrast ratio for the text while having the anti-aliasing turned off.ColorTester is a piece of software that provides you with a seamless way to retrieve the proper fore and background colors and find out how the text is rendered.

The interface is small and crowded

The installation entails extracting an archive, so you can access the application in a matter of seconds. The UI is comprised of a small window that displays the fore and background colors of the text you are examining.A noteworthy feature is that it automatically identifies the palette you want to test and it exhibits the contrast ratio between the fore color and the background you intend to use. At the same time, in the lower section, you can preview the test results that are performed on small and large texts.While it includes a lot of useful information, the interface feels a bit crowded and incomplete. Then again, since it performs all tests automatically, some users might feel that the tiny window is sufficient for retrieving the data you need.

Enables info retrieval, yet you cannot configure it

It is necessary to mention that the program allows you to extract and test the contrast ratio for various files you are working on. More precisely, you can load a JPEG, GIF or PNG and learn the contrast success criteria immediately. Then again, it would be nice if the app supported more file formats.At the same time, the program allows you to use the standard operating system and access a plethora of colors that you can combine and test until you obtain the desired contrast. In case you want to verify a certain combination, then you can disable the aforementioned options and capture a section where the tones are present.

A good tool for capturing colors and testing contrast ratios

If you are looking for a utility that can easily display the exact name of a color and that enables you quickly analyze a certain contrast ratio, then ColorTester might come in handy.
