title: Acrobat DC - Change application background color? (GUI too bright)
body: <p>I'm trying to change (through Hex Editors, Resource Hackers, etc.) the background color of <a href="http://www.acrobat.adobe.com/Acrobat_DC%E2%80%8E" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Adobe Acrobat DC</a>, the latest version of Adobe Acrobat.</p>
  
  <p>This version makes the background color much lighter. It's too bright. It hurts my eyes to use, and is distracting from the white-background documents I want to use in it as there is not enough contrast between the application and its documents. 
  So, I'm trying to change it myself, as there is <a href="https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1812762" rel="nofollow noreferrer">no such option</a> in the preferences. </p>

  <p>I cannot find in what file I need to tweak the code to change the color from F0F0F0 -- almost white, still don't know why they did that. I'm thinking of changing it to 565656 which is how it was in Acrobat XI. </p>
  
  <p>When I use the "Window Info" tool from AutoIt v3 on this area of the program, it drops me the hints in the "Output File" below. </p>
  
  <p>I've already put in feedback to Adobe, but meanwhile, where do I go from here to manually tweak the color? </p>
