Yellow Page background of PDFs

 

PDF page background changed to Yellow instead of no background for all pdf files after updating Acrobat with September’ 2021 release.

 

Available Workarounds for Windows machines:

 

Workaround 1: Windows machine

  • Close Acrobat.
  • From Windows Control Panel Open Color Management.
  • Select the affected display (if you have multiple affected displays you will need to repeat the following steps for each one).
  • Check the box “Use my settings for this device”
  • Select any existing profiles associated with this device and remove them.
  • Click Add and choose the ICC Profile called sRGB IEC61966-2.1.
  • Click OK and then Close
  • Test

 

 

Workaround 2: Mac & Windows machine:

  • Select Acrobat’s Preference for replacing document colours, under Preferences > Accessibility and set the document background colour to white.
                  (Open Acrobat, Go to Edit > Preferences > Accessibility)
                  (Mac: Acrobat > Preferences> Accessibility)

This does not work for me. I didn't have an issue before Windows 11, in case that matters.
