Hello,
I updated to macos Monterey yesterday and I guess I guess I also my firefox updated to 102.0.1 (64-bit)... Anyway, I was very much used to have a white background in firefox's built-in pdf viewer when viewing pdfs that really have a white background (for example if you download it and check it with Adobe reader, or any reader other than the viewer built-in the browser).
Now the background color is gray, and it's not convenient for me at all. I could not find the magic setting that allow to changing this behaviour... I do not use themes, so I do not mind changing something there if needed.
Could any guru help here please ? That would be much appreciated.

Sorry for the late answer. When I tried your file, for me it is displayed in gray, see attachment.
Any suggestion on how to get rid of the gray background and have it displayed as white ?
Thanks a lot for any advice
