PDF in grayscale always when I open it

Post by antrasafantos »

Hi - I have got PDF X-change Editor+ v8.0
Somehow, every time I open a document it is in grayscale - no more colour!
I've tried everything in view, and print settings - set everything to print in colour, but nothing worked.

Is anyone aware of a way out of this?

Thanks
AF

File-tab/menu > Preferences > Accessibility > Override Document Colors = must be turned OFF.
( shortcut => CTRL + SHIFT + 6 )
.

Hello Willy Van Nuffel,

Thanks for the help!

@antrasafantos - indeed the accessibility settings are the most likely cause of that behaviour and Willy's suggestion above should work.
Do let us all know if the above helps!

Kind regards,
Stefan
