See the initial value on that page.

I wanted to say that by default, all pages have a white background (on google chrome for e.g.). Even if I have a pink/neon green windows theme (like the images I've posted above), it will still display a white background for every web page (if that page doesn't have a background-color / background: OTHER COLOR style applied).

I don't say that you need to define a css background color for the editor.

I wanted to suggest that the default background of the File preview should be white. No need to add css code. Just apply it with the software code you used to create Calibre.

Let me ask you, what's the default colors of a kindle ebook page or a web html page? (That's right black text + white background). This should be the same for Calibre File Preview in my opinion.

I hope it makes sense now.
