Blue Film on PDF?


Customer Service


Every page of my PDF, except for some reason the table of contents, has a blue layer overlaying it. This is not the result of a select all. Does anyone know what is going on? It looks like when the PDF was made somebody had a select all turned on and that somehow got carried over into the PDF. How do I fix this? This blue film is present in both the large pdf and the broken down by chapter pdf but is no present when I load other (non related) pdf's.


I can also see the pixel line outlined clearly in the floating artwork, making me think that this is a select done at Paizo and not my copy of reader putting a blue screen on top of everything.

Have you tried to re-personalize and re-download it? It sounds like it could have been an issue with the personalization

Downloaded both the all in one and chapter by chapter pdf's. They both have this issue.

And I just found out that my wife has reader set to give everything a blue background. Sorry for any time I may have wasted.

Excellent—you had me stumped. The best suggestion I could come up with was:

"Uhmmm... Windex?"


Am curious how was this done ?

Yes, something like that went through my head (the thought, not the Windex)

My guess for the problem would have been "some PDF reader that doesn't conform to all the standards.

One of the more important features in readers.

I guess it's a variation on rose-coloured glasses.

Actually it can be... speech therapists have a program called the Wilson program (I believe), for part of these tests they check to see if the subject doesn't like to read because of the black on white background, and if putting a colored plastic sheet over the page will help the students read better..

All she told me is that it's buried three menu's deep and I can't turn it off because it'd be to much of a pain to have to turn it back on.


When I read "BLUE FILM ON PDF" I thought it must just mean Paizo had some mature content for download.

Great minds think alike.

Guess the Seoni convention cosplay will never see the light of day?
