I have what looks like graph paper background in all my .pdfs.  Does anyone out there know how to eliminate it?

In the preferences of Adobe Acrobat disable the entry "Show transparency grid".

Go to menu View -> Show/Hide -> Ruler & Grids and choose Grid to hide it if it is visible. A check mark appears next to the command name when the grid is displayed. You can also use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+U (Windows) or Command+U (Mac) to show/hide it.
