Themes

Theme refers to using different background colors to render PDF document pages when displaying PDF files to adapt to user preferences and scene needs, enhancing the reading experience.

When modifying the theme, only the visual effects during document display are altered, and it does not modify the PDF document data on the disk. The theme settings are not saved within the PDF document data.

This example shows how to set the dark theme:

swift
pdfview.displayMode = .night
objective-c
pdfview.displayMode = CPDFDisplayModeNight;
