I have posted on this problem several weeks ago: when I save an agenda buffer with the brilliant C-u C-x C-w method (naming a file .pdf), I have not been able to produce a pdf that is readable unless the foreground color is dark. When exporting a pdf from an org-mode buffer, the text is normally black. Not in this case, however. I have been pulling my hair out for quite a while about this. I have had to completely alter my coloration pattern of emacs to use this facility. Can I incorporate a temporary selection of a different color-theme-* or a neutral coloring scheme into the code that produces that PDF by the C-u C-x C-w method? I removed all manner of coloration, to get this working at all. Well, I just bought a monochrome laser printer, and even then, the light colored foreground-color (like yellow) print in an illegible shade of light gray. What have I been doing wrong? Any clues?
