Color scans are creating dark grey background on PDF's, and I need background to be white

Color scans are creating dark grey background on PDF's, and I need background to be white. I can scan in black and white, and this is a non issue, but I need the images to be the correct color. Is there a setting change that I can make. The user is using Adobe Acrobat 11 Standard.

Hi JohnnyIES,

Sorry for the delay in response.

Try background removal tool in Acrobat and see if that helps. Under tools > document processing > optimize scanned pdf, click edit under filters > background removal > high.

Below is the screenshot:

Thanks,
