  1. The filter "show unchecked only" (don’t know exact title because of german version) is no longer working since macOS 14.1. It’s really essential, please fix asap.

  4. Make straight lines with the highlight text tool and drawing tools by holding shift, just like holding shift with the draw line tool. PLEASE.
    Maybe also give the highlighter the clickable option to choose between freehand highlight, straight line highlight, and recognizable text; and lock the option preference until we manually change it.

  5. I routinely check, review, mark up records. I also use the markups to keep track of changes. Word documents are unacceptable because I need to keep a permanent record that work was done.

    PDF Exchange editor has a tool that lets me draw a polygon, and set the color blend mode so the polygon acts like a hilighter. I can use this to flag something that is an issue, use different colors to identify the type of issue, and whether or not it has been addressed/resolved.

    Adobe acrobat lets me twiddle the opacity, but this makes reading the file difficult,…

  6. Hi. I've been using Acrobat for my work for around three years. I basically translate comics from Japanese into English and I switch input methods a lot between Japanese, Korean and Swedish. I haven't had any problems with the app before but since an update perhaps 3-5 months ago, Acrobat keeps crashing when I'm writing a comment in a PDF and change the input method while the text marker is in the comment input box. It happens quite a lot. Usually, only the last two or three comments disappear, but it is quite annoying and when that loading wheel thingy…

  9. When highlighting pdf documents the highlighted section will sometime flash to that from another page while i am highlighting. this is very frustrating as cannot see what I am actually highlighting. once i finish, the original text reappears. this has happened on multiple documents on and off. Never happened on the prior version

  10. Truncated files that I now need to recreate - I will be looking for another editor as this update is forcing me to recreate files in a UI where the menuing system is illogical and clunky. You took a well put together product and ruined it.

  11. Please fix the way this program runs. I comment often on pdfs and even with as little as 10 comments I get the swirly ball of death and acrobat pro slows to a crawl. Then it often hangs. With ALL files, and no, it is not my computer:
    Computer: MacBook Pro Apple M1 Pro Mac OS Sonoma 14.2 (23C64)
    Acrobat Pro version: Architecture: arm64
    Processor: Apple M1 Pro
    Build: 22.3.20281.0
    AGM: 7.0.1
    CoolType: 8.1.0
    JP2K: 3.0.1.51486

  12. Need the ability to extract ONLY the highlighted text and tables to a word or PDF document for easy reference. Students studying will benefit from an abridged version of the PDF to only review highlighted notes from their PDF.

  13. Acrobat Pro, Windows:

    1) The "Record Audio" Comment option doesn't work well: a really loud background noise is always present, and I have to massively strain my voice to beat it. (If I forget to strain it, the recording has a fade-in effect where the recorded sound is inaudible at first, but then gets better a few seconds in.)
    This is not a hardware issue - tried different laptops & different microphones (internal and external). Searching the forum, I found that this issue has existed for more than a decade (https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/is-there-a-way-to-fix-the-static-noise-problem-in-record-audio-comments-in-acrobat/m-p/14383077#M448422), please fix it.

  14. I highly dislike the new layout. I have used the "insert (arrow, text box, check mark, etc.)" for years and years. Now I cannot even ADD comments and arrows, etc. I can only "SEND" for comments. I have gone around in circles and even Googled trying to find where the "arrows" are now. I am finding no answers. SO frustrating. I have found nothing that is an improvement, It is just rearranged on the page with things now no longer accessible. Please help!

  15. This is the worst pdf editor I have ever set my hands on. The simple issue of crossing out parts of a page TO MAKE IT NOT TRANSPARENT takes way too much effort with this useless tool. Shame on you for charging money for this.

  16. When you want to make comments to PDF, you click the relevant comment button and make a comment (Box or line or highlight etc.), however the comment feature is stuck and next time you click anywhere, the Adobe keep on inserting comments, until an Esc button is clicked. Previous version was better where you click comments and you can put comment and carry on reading the pdf content. New feature is bit frustrating

  17. Please add more color options and schemes for highlighting and freehand drawing in Adobe PDF (for desktop and iPad). As of now, there are only nine (9) colors with varying shades. I'm a lawyer who uses a bunch of different highlighter colors on hard copies (orange, pink, etc.). To switch to paperless, I'd need these color options/schemes.

  18. Dear Adobe Support Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I would like to report a major issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro related to password-protected PDFs and the inability to use commenting and highlighting features on mobile devices. This issue is affecting a significant portion of users, as mobile devices and tablets have become the primary means of accessing PDF files.

    Issue Description:
    When a PDF file is password protected using Adobe Acrobat Pro, and the "commenting and highlighting" option is set to "enabled" in the document's security settings during its creation, there is a critical problem. While users…

  19. When you select text, the selected text must be displayed in the comments list. Without this function it is pointless to work with text. Look how it's done in Google Books.

  20. I use a windows 10 PC and this app has become nearly unusable. Every single time I am editing a document or commenting, it crashes. If I leave the document open and don't touch it, it crashes. It's now crashing so badly that the textbox wont even let me write a report or send feedback on the crash. This is completely UNNACCEPTABLE given I PAY A MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION FOR THIS APP.
