By design, the document title overlay and the main toolbar share the same pspdf__backgroundColor from pspdf__mainToolbarStyle. There is currently no dedicated style attribute to set them independently via XML.

To set a different background or text color on the title overlay, access it programmatically after onCreate via PSPDFKitViews#getDocumentTitleOverlayView, and set the background color and text color directly on the DocumentTitleOverlayView:

pspdfKitViews.documentTitleOverlayView?.apply {
    setBackgroundColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.your_title_background))
    setTextColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.your_title_text_color))
}

To hide the title overlay entirely, use PdfActivityConfiguration.Builder:

val configuration = PdfActivityConfiguration.Builder(context)
    .hideDocumentTitleOverlay()
    .build()
