Google Docs is a widely used online word processor. It allows you to create, edit, and share documents with others in no time. Moreover, it also relaxes your local device memory by saving all created files online in your Google account.

Despite the fact, Google Docs provides plenty of utilities to users, but watching the same default bland screen daily can be monotonous. Repetition of the same task can cause boredom and leads you toward dragging, which you cannot afford while doing office chores. You need to bring change on your screen and if you’re looking for a changing of background color in your Google Docs, below is the step-by-step guide to make this possible.

Follow the steps below to change background color of a page in Google Docs

Total Time: 2 minutes
