I am reading 'Anathem' by Neil Stephenson. I bought the DRMed PDF from booksonboard.com .

Everything is fine apart from the fact that the text in the PDF is not exactly black but lighter (if you are curious, it is #272425, if you know HTML's notation).

My PRS-505 is not smart enough to understand that it is not useful to use a light gray to render that colour, so now I need to read the book with a less than optimal screen contrast!

Any advice on how to fix this? Thank you in advance,

Giacecco
