  1. Why it is impossible to have editing options as they were previously? Can a 'Classic view' be added for those of us older than 5?
    Everything in this new 'charms' based UI is fussy and time-consuming. I've been using Acrobat since its inception and now I'm having to relearn nearly everything. WHY?
    It wasn't broken, so the need to 'fix it' has created a frustrating experience.

  2. The only option to directly enter text surrounded by a shape is in Comments - or go back to square 1 and reimport the document from Word.
    Allow the text entered in Edit PDF to be covered by a shape with optional properties like transparency or colored border and background.

  5. Please make it easier to move text. I have spent hours (and am developing RSI) trying to move text that I have moved before - it takes dozens/hundreds of clicks to get the box around the text to show sufficiently to grab it and move it. I spent the $$ for AA Pro DC, so thought such a basic thing would have been fixed .... Please let me know when it is fixed so that I can edit my document without wasting any more time - I have a week or so before it goes to the printers ... Thanks

  6. I set up a simple action to crop files to some specific measurements. These are magazine pages, so all need the same crop. The action wizard manages about 10 files and then crashes. When it crashes it corrupts the file it was currently working on, so I have to generate that one again for the next attempt. As our magazine has up to 600 pages, this is a huge problem. It seems to happen every time I try. I am on a Mac running the latest Mojave version.

  7. I attempted to run the "Recognize Text In This File" command on a file with digital signatures and received a random "This operation is not permitted" error (see screenshot) which may in itself be a bug. But then I checked "Ignore future errors in this document" and hit OK, and received the same popup, with the "Ignore future errors" box checked, for each subsequent error in the document until it reached the last page. I thought this was strange.

  8. It would be great if the "Find & Replace" option is more versatile. There should be options to replace ALL, including mathematical symbols. Like we have in MS Word.

  9. Acrobat DC, Windows
    If I open a PDF which I protected myself with a password and I enter the password to temporarily disable the protection, I should be able to edit the PDF the way I want, but I'm not. I cannot mark, not draw anything. I'm forced to save an unprotected copy. This is paradox and stupid!

  11. This is not an idea. I am not able to uncheck headers and footers option after comparing two pdfs. Because of this I'll have to go through obvious header and footer changes, which is a waste of time.

  12. it happened unexpectedly - i can not trace the trigger. ever since, selecting text/graphics in PDF DC produces pixelated multicolor mosaic that makes it difficult to spot lines/text elements

  13. I would like to be able to generate a table of contents using bookmarks within a PDF. While there are some third party plugins that will do this, it would be helpful to have this feature within Acrobat.

  14. Coming across an issue with Adobe PDF recently, where, when I edit a plan or remove pages in Adobe PDF, save it, close the document, then try to email it. It is retaining the original features of the plans, rather than the edited features for some time. Then after some time has passed it will attach with the edited features of the document.

    This has happened twice in the last week, never had this occurrence prior.

    Steps:
    1) Open Document
    2) Save As Document as New File
    3) Remove Pages or Edit Pages
    4) Save File
    5) Close File in…

  15. I love the split by top level bookmark. Please let us add bookmark while using the organize pages tool. This will increase my and others workflow tremendously.

  16. It would be so helpful if Acrobat could do the math and overlay a Layout Grid with a particular number of subdivisions. Instead, currently, the user has to open preferences and put in the exact size of the subdivisions which is tricky when images are not whole number sizes.

  18. Why is the magnifying glass icon in Acrobat DC not consistent with your other products? Instead of representing 'Find', it should represent 'Zoom'. Very confusing, especially when on deadline.

  20. Would love to see the edit functionality as an a-la-cart feature that I can purchase. I prefer not to purchase the entire Pro DC or Standard DC package b/c I don't need any of the other features that come with the plan.
