Hi,

Trying to convert the attached .doc file to .pdf results in a .pdf file with a blue background. Any idea what the cause may be? It’s a pleasant shade of blue but I’d prefer the background to remain white

Thank you!

Hi Emma,

Please note that your Word document already has a Blue background color which becomes invisible when viewed in “Print Layout View”. In Microsoft Word you can turn On/Off this option by following the path below:

File | Options | Advanced | Show Document Content | Show background colors and images in Print Layout view.

Hope, this helps.

Best regards,

Wow, I didn’t know this was possible To see the document a different color than it is, I mean.
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Emma,

You can also programmatically fix this issue by using the following code:

Document doc = new Document(filePath);
Console.WriteLine(doc.PageColor);
doc.PageColor = Color.Empty;
doc.Save("16.6.0.pdf");

Hope, this helps.

Best regards,
