Issue with colors printing but not displaying in PDF.

I have a pdf that someone else created and the black (or something close to that) text displays as white on the screen but prints correctly.

Similarly, I have another document I created where a red doesn't disply but prints correctly.

Is there a setting I can change to correct this?

Hi @Jean.T 

 

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.

 

Please go to Edit (Win), Adobe Acrobat (Mac) > Preferences > Accessibility > Under document color Options, Replace documents colors,   Set custom color: Page Background to White and Document text to Black.

 

 

Let us know how it goes.

Thank you! I already had that setting in place, so by unchecking 'Replace Document Colors' I can now see the missing background and the white text that's on it.
