The ATTO Text editor is used to create forum posts, pages, item descriptions, and many other items in Moodle. 

The "More font colors" menu (with the paint brush icon) has a limited selection of colors. Any of these will exceed the color contrast necessary for any size text as long as it is on a white background. Notice white font is a choice. White font should be highlighted in black.

The "More font background colors" menu (with the light bulb icon) can be used to highlight text. The black text highlighted with the yellow, green, or blue background will pass the color contrast tests for all text. The white highlight is provided to change highlighted text back to a white background. The black option is provided to highlight white text.
