Preflight library and profile import and export dialogs inacessible
When trying to import or export a preflight library or a profile inside a library, the "file open" dialog does not open and instead throws a warning messagebox "Error in OS call SHGetFolderPath: -2147024829". See attached screenshot. This error of course hints to something in the underlying OS, but should be handled differently by Acrobat. For example, by instead opening a "file open" dialog in some default or safe directory instead.
I tried removing the registry key HKCU\Software\Adobe and its subkeys while Acrobat was closed. Then trying again, but it did not make any difference.
Probably not fully reproducable on…

Acrobat Pro DC – Text Watermark Font Bug
Mac OS X 10.13.6
Acrobat Pro DC – Version 2021.001.20138Inserting a text watermark using the Helvetica Neue font enters a series of boxes instead of the text. All weights and slopes affected except, bizarrely, the ‘Thin’ weight.
Inserting text using the Helvetica Font produces the error message “The font ‘Helvetica,Xxxx’ contains an invalid encoding. Some characters may not display correctly”. This error message appears on saving the PDF and every time it is opened in Acrobat Reader DC.
Both fonts are system fonts and work satisfactorily in all applications (e.g. InDesign, Word) including Acrobat Pro DC, but not as…

Acrobat Pro DC - Sometimes Holds Lock on File after closing it
Hi,
Arobat Pro DC closes file OK, but sometimes appears to keep the file locked against changes in Windows (Win10, 64bit, fully updated May2020) etc
Win 10 \ Windows Explorer is prevented from modifying the parent folder name (for example).
Does not always happen. Closing Acrobat Pro DC appears to release the file (in that it allows changes to the filepath etc using Windows Explorer etc).
This is similar to issue reported usign Acrobat READER.
The Windows Preview tab is NOT showing
(that Win10 bug (?) is a known issue, but relevant here).Regards

Some text changes colour after 3 days = maybe something to do with the Bold selection?
Hi
We had to make some urgent edits in a large PDF on Friday when I went to look through again on the monday some of the text looked like it was missing - it is there but invisible until I turn off the Bold Selection in the edit panel- then it shows up - and if I rebold it stays... This is the second document that it has happened and we are making quick edits to make a deadline by using the edit panel in Acrobat (this is instead of going back to Indesign/Word to make the changes and…1 vote -

Adobe is not opening paint program when I select "Edit Using" "Microsoft Paint".
It used to work fine until a couple of weeks ago. Now I get the following popup "Adobe Acrobat cannot start the image editing application you've specified. Verify the image editing application location on the Content Editing panel in Preferences". I did as instructed...and added the path to MS Paint program. I restarted the Adobe DC several times, but keep getting the same popup. Every time I go to check the Preferences, it shows the correct path. Adobe just fails to open MS Paint.

Change the PDF document page size
For real - We're In 2021!
Acrobat Pro cannot change the size of a PDF document.
Only way to do that is to print a PDF copy.
I want to just change the document size (i.e. A4 -> A5) in Acrobat Pro and save. That would be great!
I don't want to go back to PS, Illustrator or InDesign to do that. I don't wan't to print another PDF copy to do that.
Just open document settings > change size - voila!3 votes -
Quick Tools overflow menu
Some tools are not usable when accessed from the overflow ("meatballs") menu of the Quick Tools toolbar. Tools such as Change color, Change line thickness, and Text Properties are not usable if they are in the overflow menu (because the window size is too small to fit all the Quick Tools).

Regional unit and Spell Check defaults
Defaults should be based on regional settings in Windows, a few examples:
A) Adobe PDF printer Page Size: Letter vs A4
B) Acrobat Preferences > Measuring (3D) > Use default display unit: Inches vs Meters
C) Acrobat Preferences > Measuring (Geo) > Use default distance unit: Miles vs Kilometers
D) Acrobat Preferences > Measuring (Geo) > Use default area unit: Square Miles vs Square Kilometers
E) Acrobat Preferences > Spelling > Dictionaries for Spell Check
F) Acrobat Preferences > Units & Guides > Page & Ruler Units: Inches vs Millimeters1 vote -
Tab Color
Set tabs to colors when working with more than one file helps to differentiate and sort. EXCEL allows tabs to be colored. Similar to that. Thank you.

Steuerelemente bei Video (Rich Media) funktionieren nicht
Da mein Video in einer aus PowerPoint exportiertem PDF nicht abspielbar ist (mangels Flash-Support) habe ich das Video nachträglich über das "Rich-Media"-Werkzeug in das PDF eingefügt. So ist es zwar abspielbar aber bei den Steuerelementen lässt sich nichts einstellen. Ob ich dort "keine" oder "Alle Steuerelemente" auswähle ändert nichts an der Darstellung. Es werden keine Steuerelemente angezeigt. Auch das Feld mit der Farbauswahl lässt sich nicht anklicken. So kann man das Video im PDF mit einem Klick darauf zwar starten, aber nicht mehr anhalten oder erneut starten.

Create Link should default to NEXT not HELP
When I add links to a PDF, I do NOT need help EVERY single time I create a link; it would be MUCH more convenient if the default selection were NEXT, not HELP. In this manner, I could use enter to select next, whereas now, when I inadvertently click enter thinking it should be the default, it seems to be common sense - oh, wait, that no longer exists, my bad. I guess never mind, no commonsense, why bother, right?

Merge PDF - Adobe Acrobat Online (web version)
Hello Adobe,
I just noticed that you guys have a pretty nice PDF tool online. I use online PDF tools more than my desktop tools as sometimes I am on architecture like ARM that does not have the features I need. I love the export features of the online acrobat.
Feature Request: Merge PDFs
Reference Website/Competitor: See attached image3 votesHello Dylan,
Thanks for trying Acrobat online tools. We are definitely planning to introduce Merge/Combine PDF tool in the upcoming months.
Please stay tuned.
Thanks,

Wrist watch buffering
I'm copying text from an old scanned document to a blank PDF in the same work space side by side, for the last few hours I'm unable to work as I'm getting the above. This has been an ongoing thing for as long as I have been using AA DC usually I shut down and reopen and it fixes, but today it's on going. I'm up to date with my version of AA DC.
