How to Customize PDF Background Colors in Foxit PDF Editor: Visual Mode, Accessibility, and Full-Screen Settings

Answer

Foxit PDF Editor provides users with multiple options to customize the background color of PDF files through Visual Mode, Accessibility settings, and Full-Screen Appearance. Below is a detailed explanation of how to set up these options:

1. Setting the Background Color via Visual Mode
To change the background color using Visual Mode:

Navigate to the View tab,click on Visual Mode.
Select one of the three available options: Night, Eye Comfort, or Sepia background.
These options allow you to display the PDF file background in different visual styles, enhancing readability and comfort depending on your preferences.

2. Setting the Background Color via Accessibility in Preferences
You can also customize the background color of your PDF files through the Accessibility settings in the Preferences dialog box(refer to the screenshots for guidance).

However, the background appearance is influenced by both Accessibility and Visual Mode settings, with the final display depending on the last setting applied:

  • If you select a Visual Mode option (Night, Eye Comfort, Sepia) after setting an Accessibility background color, the document will follow the Visual Mode style.
  • If you set the Accessibility background color after selecting a Visual Mode option, the document will adopt the Accessibility background style instead.

This interplay ensures flexibility in choosing the background color that best suits your needs.

3. Setting the Background Color for Full-Screen Appearance in Preferences
For PDFs displayed in Full-Screen Mode, you can configure the background color in the Full-Screen Section of the Preferences dialog box (refer to the screenshot for guidance).

However, the full-screen background color setting has a lower priority compared to Visual Mode settings:

  • If a Visual Mode is enabled, the full-screen mode will use the style defined by the Visual Mode.
  • If Visual Mode is not set, the full-screen mode will use the background color defined in the Full-Screen Appearance settings in the Preferences menu.
    Conclusion.

By understanding the relationship between Visual Mode, Accessibility settings, and Full-Screen Appearance, you can effectively customize the background color of your PDF files to suit your preferences and improve your reading comfort.
