  1. New Adobe UI has removed the ability to type over text in order to add PDF mark-up. Now you have to right-click and select 'Add Note to Replace Text'. This is very time-consuming for editors. Previous UI was much better.

    My colleagues and I have reverted to the old version for now but hope the new UI will include the ability to type over text to add PDF mark-up.

  3. Hi,
    There is a 'Comments property: Subject' choosable from the right-clicking on the Commentts List annotation type>Properties>General tab, where one might be able to give more individual Subjects to the same annotation type.

    As an example,
    yellow Highlighted Text Subject: Note, Follow,
    blue Highlighted Text Subject: Refer, Read-it-Later, Look After, Download
    orange Highlighted Text Subject: Revision, In-Progress, Important
    etc.

    It would be so great to make visible (chosen from the Commenting Preferences) the given Subject in an annotation on the Comments List next to the Author and Date. Even more, would be great to allow to Sort and Filter the…

  4. I mark up, comment, to 50 student scripts in a day. For every file I load, I have to click 3 buttons.
    How can I set up Reader so every time I open a file, all those buttons are already clicked?

  5. I do not understand why the file size increases so much when adding only one comment. The original file is only 66 KB. Adding a comment of a name makes the file size 1.39 MB. This is absolutely ridiculous. I used a different program to do the same thing, and the file was only 67 KB. When you have larger files with multiple comments, it becomes an issue with emailing the files. This has become an increasingly frequent issue over the last couple of years. I have no idea what has changed along the way, but this issue really needs…

  6. I am using macBook Pro 2017 and have a monthly subscription that allow me to edit pdf file. However, I not able to draw or use stylus via Trackpad to make hand writing on the document. It will be nice to have this option in order to make a personal note directly on the file.

  7. Would appreciate a "view all comments" option for pdf cloud documents. Having to toggle "resolved" in the filter to have them appear is a pain. Would like to see all comments at once!

  8. I have a Microsoft Surface Book 3 & Surface pen. Adobe DC used to automatically recognise my pen for markup, and I used my finger to scroll.
    about 3-6 months ago, I lost this ability. (yes, "Auto detect pen hardware to enable markup" is ticked in preferences)

    At the moment, the pen only works like a second mouse.

    So far, I have removed and re-installed Adobe. Auto pen detection did work for 1 PDF but stopped working again.
    I've also re-installed the pen drivers, but this has not helped.

    Auto detect pen for markup works perfectly okay in Microsoft Apps…

  9. When I right-click on a comment and select the Open Comment Panel option, nothing opens up. There's no Comment Panel. Where did it go? How am I supposed to review a list of comments now?

  10. The strikethough feature has a greyed out option to adjust the strikethrough thickness. It should be implemented as certain clients prefer a more substantial strikethrough and the workaround of creating a line and adjusting that thickness is very tedious with large documents.

  13. show tip for keyboard-shortcut (alt+enter)

    I don't want to know how many people give up the struggle of commenting in adobe acrobat reader... because of the counter-intuitive "sending" (entering) a comment... forced by clicking a button with the mouse.

    apparently you can "enter" with [alt + enter]

    please show a popup-tip for this key-combo when hovering over the [send-button]

  14. When you spend hours reviewing and adding comments, no matter how many times you save as you go, Adobe Acrobat Pro DC doesn't actually save the comments. When you open the file up later your comments are missing like you never made them. sometimes it saves somethings, most of the time it doesn't save anything. worthless program!

  15. Please provide a function in the JavaScript Doc methods to get the Font Family/ font size of the nthWord on a page.

    For context, I'm using an action to replace text with a new value via Redactions, ideally, I'd like to be able to font-match the Redaction with the font-family/size of the original text, so that the replacement isn't obvious. Currently, I'm having to use font-size 0 which can be hit or miss depending on the line-size vs font-size, and what font was originally used.

  18. When I use Adobe acrobat Pro to read pdfs on my tablet or touchscreen laptop it can be awkward to easily switch between scroll and highlight. Perhaps integrate smart tap features like for other adobe fresco, e.g., three taps to redo, two taps to undo, one finger to select, two finger drag to scroll. Also I keep needing to undo my highlights because I'm uncoordinated! Rather than always having to go into the drop down menu please make undo more accessible. Currently there are all these other buttons visible that i never use, why not something i use all the…

  19. At the moment from InDesign, when exporting interactive documents, we have Publish Online or Interactive PDFs. Neither of which support reviewing/commenting very well.

    When trying to use the commenting tools in Acrobat you cannot select text for replacement in any rollover state textboxes. Uploading interactive documents to the document cloud only supports static pages, InDesign's own review document functionality doesn't support interactivity and Publish Online doesn't support any means of providing feedback - although it does support interactivity.

    Come on Adobe! The web has been alive to interactivity since day 0. You are supposed to be the defacto authority on…

  20. In some adobe pdf files, the highlight appears much bigger than the highlighted text. It could be due to the specific design of the font. This, however, makes reading and highlighting this specific document annoying. Could you please address this issue and allow the users to change the "highlight color width" regardless of the font/fontsize?
