I am looking for a way to change the text color when exporting a note to PDF.

I am using the Atom theme with Dark mode enabled.

The dark code block with dark text makes the PDF unreadable.

I had the same issue just edit the Atom.css navigate to the folder of your vault goto .obsidian/themes/Atom.css open it in your favourite text editor and then find .markdown-preview-view code { color: inherit; }
Change color to wahtever color you want

Hey @karanmariojude,
Not sure if you’re having the issue with exporting still.

I have had the same kind of issue and managed to find a workaround by specifying code blocks rather than the <pre> and <code> tags.

Would be interested to find out if this resolves your issue :slight_smile:
