🪲 Very light pdf text color

[omegaui]

What happened?

First thing first, Thanks a lot for creating such a great thing.
It's going to help me learn Japanese a lot.

So, I'm learning Japanese using Vibe, but only issue I'm facing is that the pdf generated have very light greyish color, I'm unable to read without straining my eyes.

Please take a look at this, also it would be nicer if it generates the transcription in dark mode, I myself find it easy to read for long on dark backgrounds.

Steps to reproduce

Transcribe any Japanese audio.

What OS are you seeing the problem on?

@thewh1teagle Also, I'm not able to select any text in pdf

Thanks for report.
I want to improve this and also provide option to save the PDF like other files with the dialog to select the folder.
I thought about react-pdf but it doesn't able to render non English languages correctly due to encoding issues :(
I'll see if there's good library to render PDF in the browser or in Rust.

But you should be able to select the text already. what browser and OS you use?

Some notes for me:

@thewh1teagle Thanks for the quick response.
I've tried opening the pdf on my Windows 11, Ubuntu, My Samsung F23 5G Mobile and on my Samsung S9 FE+ tablet (both androids). But I couldn't select any text with mouse, touch or S Pen.

I figured out the non-selectable-text issue.

For anyone else having the same issue on Windows 11 24H2's Edge Browser, just select Save as PDF instead of the Default selected Microsoft Print to PDF.

Using a half-baked extension for now, until this feature lands in.

For others wanting the same, download the "PDF Dark Mode" addon and follow the instructions on its home page to enable it for local pdf files.

Or just use Firefox.
