Textbox color superimpose onto other color when opening in MS Edge

I am creating a set of 3 forms and I want to distinguce each form by using different colors in the fillable textboxes... So far so good.

 

But when I open the forms with MS Edge (which most of the relevant recipiants of the form use), a blue textbox has been superimposed over the colors, thus messing up the colors.

Any way to get around this, or is it a compatability problem?

Unfortunately, there is no setting to turn off field highlighting for PDFs in the Edge web browser.  Users will have to save the file locally and open with Adobe Reader or Acrobat.
