How to Change PDF Background for Dark Mode Reading

Make a PDF easier to read at night by changing the background colour to dark grey or black. Free tool.

Bright white PDFs are uncomfortable at night. FixMyPDF's background colour tool lets you apply a dark background — combine it with PDF invert for full dark-mode PDFs.

Background Only vs Full Invert

Background tool: changes the page background colour only. Text stays as-is. Invert tool: flips all colours including text and images. For proper dark mode, invert the whole PDF.

Steps for Dark Background

Go to fixmypdf.in/tools/background-color-pdf. Upload. Enter a dark colour (e.g. #1a1a2e or #2d2d2d). Apply. Download.
