User level: Level 1 (5 points)When viewing PDFs in Preview on MacOs 27 the screen turns black. To continue I have to force quit Preview first. Do I have to change the settings on MacOS 27 for Preview?

You used the plural of PDF. All PDFs from the same source, or random PDFs from difference sources? Were the same PDFs viewable in Preview on a previous release of macOS?
There are no other macOS 27 settings you need to change for functional Preview usage.
I have several PDFs here and randomly, they all open and display properly in Preview on the released version of macOS 27.0.1.
