Remove the black background from a PDF
You cannot simply “delete” the background from most note PDFs — the page is a picture of the board. What you can do is invert it and clean it, which removes the black background while keeping every stroke of writing.

Frequently asked questions
Does removing the background delete any content?
No. Only the colours change — nothing on the page is removed.
Can I get a completely black-and-white result?
Yes, tick “Black & white output” to remove all colour as well.
