PDF Dark Mode Reader

PDF Dark Mode Reader is a premium, lightning-fast extension designed to bring true dark mode to your PDF documents. Whether you're a student pulling an all-nighter, a researcher reading endless papers, or just someone who hates blinding white screens, this extension makes reading incredibly comfortable.

Unlike basic color inverters that destroy the look of your documents, PDF Dark Mode Reader features a custom Smart HSL Engine. It intelligently maps harsh white backgrounds to a soothing dark grey, while perfectly preserving the exact colors of your text, images, and links. Blue hyperlinks stay blue, and red warning text stays red!

✨ Key Features:

Smart Color Preservation: Inverts lightness while retaining exact hues. Say goodbye to washed-out, monochrome documents. Lightning Fast Search: A fully custom, native text-search engine. Instantly find exactly what you're looking for—matching text is highlighted brightly in orange and yellow right on the dark canvas, and automatically scrolled into view. Scholar-Style Interface: A clean, minimalistic top-toolbar inspired by Google Scholar's PDF reader. Keep your workspace distraction-free. Floating Outline Sidebar: Quickly navigate through massive textbooks or reports using the collapsible page-thumbnail sidebar. Smooth Lazy-Loading: Designed for performance. Even 1,000+ page textbooks open instantly and scroll smoothly without jitter or jumping.

🔒 Privacy First We believe your documents are your business. This extension operates 100% locally on your machine. Your PDFs are never uploaded, parsed, or sent to any external servers. Zero telemetry, zero data collection.
