  1. The latest Acrobat is TERRIBLE!! Not only are old tools missing (page scroll is the worst!) but after adding a comment to page 1 of a document I was reviewing, I find it has also been posted on pages 2, 3, 5, 8 and on...

    Attempts to revise the text of a comment I added a few minutes earlier are thwarted. Acrobat no longer allows a user to revise their own entries??

    As I read the comment in the forum, there seems to be enough frustration with what this version has done, that simply providing access to download and use…

  2. As of Thursday 1/4/24, sticky notes vanish as soon as they are entered, and if I type more than word in a highlight pop-up box, the font downsizes from my norm.

  4. Please add functionality so when I drag a box on the screen it gives the option to select the comments. Ideally selection box one way, crossing box the other way - if Autodesk has a patent on that or something then please license it from them.

    Thanks!

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  8. When I want to replace text, I right click on text and select "Add Note to Replace Text". Then I start typing. But the first few characters of what I type are always missing from the note that is generated. Please fix this lag.

  11. When working with a document in different devices (in my case Android and windows PC devices), the default color palettes for commenting are different. They should be similar to ensure the colors are the same across any device.

  13. It would be great to be able to batch edit comments in the Comments pane. For example, to use the Search function and find all comments with something like a common spelling error or incorrect text, then use a Find and Replace function across all the found comments to replace the text with new text.

  15. Steps to duplicate:
    Chooses Draw freehand from the toolbar.
    Click and draw freehand writing by drawing numbers, dashes and ABCs in between with clicking and unclicking creating non-continuous lines making up the characters.
    Notice that sometimes a Pop-up appears beneath where I am trying to continue for Add note & Delete.

    Workaround:
    Wait a few seconds for Add note & Delete pop-up to disappear, or start drawing in a location without the pop-up. (Or revert to old Acrobat experience by choosing Disable new Acrobat from the Menu.)

  16. I can't find "add text comment" (without a border) tool in August 2023 Acrobat.

    When I choose another similar sounding tool called "insert text comment" and clicking on a newly-created blank page, nothing happens. (I don't know what this for in either old or new version. It may have something to do with cursor?)

    Workaround is to use "add text comment" (with a border), change properties to always have no border displayed and resize the border after typing.

    The old version behavior of "add text comment" appeared to add text at position clicked on a page and then flowed right…

  17. Every time I draw a text callout box, it automatically deletes itself.

    The only way I can add one to a file is by copying it from a different PDF.

  18. Context: I am a Big 4 Auditor

    We use Adobe Acrobat to annotate client financial statements. Year to year, our annotations on client documents are very similar so we will "Export all Comments to a Data File" from the prior year's annotated document and paste it on our current year's document then update the annotations as needed in the process of our audit. From what I understand, when a page is scanned and uploaded as a PDF, there is a directional "north" hard-coded into the sheet that cannot be changed. So, when we paste the prior year's annotations to the…

  19. Our team uses "send for comments" all day everyday. Currently we can only use "local server" to collect comments. When we use "send for comments" using adobe cloud, we lose most of the mark-up tools for collaborators to post comments. I recommend Adobe figure out how to have a full functional shared review via adobe cloud- same functionality / markup tools that are available in the local server option.

    This is basic functionality that Adobe's competitors has already, and I think will end up leading to Adobe losing customers if the functionality is not expanded/improved.

  20. The opacity setting for highlighting seems to apply to universally across all colors. I think a better approach would be to allow a different opacity setting for each color.

    In my experience, there is no single opacity setting that provides decent readability for black on white text where the color of the highlighter is important. As a result, workflow suffers when having to adjust opacities after switching among colors, something that happens frequently when commenting my documents.
