Wait till Windows searches for the compatible driver for your printer driver, downloads it and installs it. When you are asked, “ How do you want to search for the drivers?“, choose the option “ Search automatically for updated driver software“. The excess background colour will be masked to create the correct visual effect, while the PDF will interpret the background correctly.Įventually of course, this technique will become redundant, but for the time being it is advisable to create smaller background areas in this way.3. ![]() To do so you will need to create a new frame that does cover more than half the page, give it the required background colour, copy the new frame, delete it, and then use the Paste Into command in InDesign to paste the new larger frame into the original smaller one. There is an InDesign workaround that will fool a PDF into thinking a background covers more than half the page when (visually) it doesn’t. ![]() Unfortunately, there is no way of doing so in Microsoft Word, but there is a fix in InDesign. Hence, it is still advisable, if possible, for document authors to avoid the problem in the first place in the source document. However, many people, for one reason or another, use older versions of Acrobat or Reader. With the latest update, Acrobat/Reader will now correctly recognise backgrounds that cover less than half of the page area, thus eliminating the problem. ![]() The outcome, of course, would be (a hard-to-read) yellow text on a pink background. Specifically, if the original colours were, say, black text on a pink background, and if a user set his or her preferences to yellow text on a black background, Acrobat or Reader would convert the text colour to yellow as required, but would not recognise the background correctly and so leave its colour unchanged. Previously, when users customised foreground/background colours in PDFs (via Edit, Preferences, Accessibility, Replace Document Colors), any section of a page with a background colour that covered less than half the total page area was likely to cause problems. Recently Adobe released an update for Acrobat Professional and Adobe Reader (version 11.0.10) that fixes a long-standing accessibility problem with background colours in PDFs. Other than this update, the following post remains unedited. (It is, as of this writing, ‘un-fixed’.) Hence it is probably safe to aasume that this problem is ongoing and the workaround described below remains as relevant as ever. The problem referred to below has been fixed and then ‘un-fixed’ in successive versions of Acrobat Reader/Pro over the years. ![]()
