What correction is useful if poster lettering is clear but appears visually too heavy?

Correct answer: Reduce thickness or choose a lighter value

The governing concept is visual weight in lettering. A very thick stroke or an excessively dark value occupies too much visual attention and can make the message feel dense, even when it remains readable. Option B is correct: reduce the stroke thickness, select a slightly lighter value, or balance both while preserving contrast. Adding black increases heaviness, a black background may reduce separation, and erasing all lettering removes the communication rather than correcting it.
