My textbook is a PDF file so I spend lots of time reading pages in Adobe Reader. The problem is the white background in Adobe reader is really bright and distracting. I've already turned down the brightness setting on my monitor but it's still a problem.
Is there a way to adjust the brightness somewhere in the Adobe Reader settings?
In Acrobat/Reader, you can modify the Document Colour Options in Edit > Preferences... > Accessibility.

If you're using a Mac, gaming laptop, or have a decent graphics card, you would highly benefit from inverting colors.

...And on Windows 7, there's a hidden gem in Magnifier!
Other gaming laptops and graphics card drivers may also have an invert colors hotkey/function, and they're always hidden quite well.
Hope this helps!
