It would be nice if there was a way to check if a fillable field exist in a PDF through JavaScript
It would be nice to have a formula like this.getField("FieldName").exist, that returns a true or false depending on weather or not the field exists

Go to "Settings". But there is No Settings!
combining E Signed PDFs, You give an instruction message: Go To Settings to preserve the E-Signatures. Problem is, there is NO SETTING button or Option. Fix your message with the correct place to go. OR, How about this idea...Instead of the stupid message, give us a Box or link to click that actually IS the Settings Area or Fixes the issue you are describing.

A Form Frame That is Adjustable
The frame that pops up when editing forms (at the right) is a fixed width. Which means, if you have long field names, you have to scroll horizontally back and forth to review and edit.
Would be great if this frame was made adjustable!

Publicly Shared PDF Web Forms
It would be great to offer true PDF Web Forms that look like the actual document such as an employment application online that can be linked to or embedded in a website for the public to fill out in the browser and submit. Instead of using an HTML form, they would see a true form fillable pdf that they could fill out and submit. Essentially merging the paper presentation of a PDF with an HTML form to run on websites.

Text box should have parameters dialog box
PDF form fields have a dialog box that allows you to enter specific size and location parameters. Text boxes should have the same functionality. Dragging text boxes around and eyeballing the alignment is unacceptable. I need to be able to type in the exact distance from the top (or bottom), and left side, as well as the exact height and width of the text box. This is in line with every other GUI form tool I've used since 1996. I don't expect Acrobat to be a full composition program, but precision placement of text isn't too much to ask.

Problem with calcuations and checkboxes
Problem: When adding calculations to a document, the checkboxes in that same document flash a keyboard when checked. Without the calculations, the checkboxes do not do this. Document 4 does not have calculations. 4C has calculations. You can see the difference in the behavior of the checkboxes.

Acrobat Standard DC Crashes After Form Field Auto Detection
BUG:
After using form field auto detection, the program crashes to desktop (without any errors) as soon as any field is clicked on or when attempting to add a new field. Leaving the Prepare Form tool works as intended; the crash only happens when attempting to work further with the tool. Leaving and reentering the tool still causes crashes.WORKAROUND:
The only way I've found to prevent this is to use the "Export Data" tool (the .fdf export one). Once the data is exported, things seem to work fine, without even requiring a re-import or anything like that.1 vote -

- close the dialoge window
- repeat it with other textfield (open/close)

Adjust multi-line text field font size when set to auto
Is it, or will it be possible in the future, to adjust a multi-line text field font size when set to auto in the appearance properties? I would like to start at a font size 24 or 30 and auto downsize as the text field fills up. It seems to default to size 12 only when multi-line and auto (font size) boxes are ticked in properties.

unmerge check boxes
Can you please have the ability to unmerge check boxes that are copy and pasted on a form. At the moment this then means if someone checks box 1, box 2 will also be checked by default. Rather than having to put a unique identifier in, it would be handy if there was a way to say I am doing multiple check boxes apply a new code to each unless specified.

Dynamic Paragraph Fields
I would be extremely helpful to have "dynamic" (for lack of a better term) paragraph fields, that do one or both of the following:
- The field expands as the person filling out the form enters text that extends beyond the pre-set dimensions
and/or
- Automatically reduces the font size to fit the field if the person filling out the form enters text that threatens to extend beyond the pre-set dimensions of the field.
If this feature exists and I am missing something, please feel free to comment and let me know!
Thanks!

Restore ability to right-click to add form field
Right-clicking in Prepare Form mode no longer brings up a list of form field options to add. Please bring this back. Having to scroll my cursor up to the toolbar every time I need to add a field is very annoying.

BUG: Text field > action > reset form: New text fields added are automatically added to the list and DEFAULT AS SELECTED
BUG: Text field > action > reset form > Make selections: New text fields added after the fact are automatically added to the list as they DEFAULT AS SELECTED. They should default as not selected as they did not exist before the field was made.

"Use Current Properties as New Defaults" on Auto-Field Detection
"Use Current Properties as New Defaults" should also apply to the auto-field detection wizard. It seems to defeat the purpose of being able to set these defaults if it only works when adding each field individually and manually.

Error during signature verification. Adobe Acrobat error. Bad parameter. Sign
When signing a PDF document and loading signed PDF into Acrobat Reader DC (v2022.001.20085, 64 bit). The file will load correctly but when clicking on on the signature it will give the error:
Error during signature verification. Adobe Acrobat error. Bad parameter.After a LOT of trail and error I found out why. This is because Acrobat does not follow the spec in some cases. This why some validation works correctly in some parts, but not others.
The field type (FT) shall be Sig, and the field value (V), if present,
shall be a signature dictionary containing the signature and…1 vote -
Why can't we resize the contextual tools menu when using the prepare forms tool
When using prepare forms tool the right sidebar that lists the tab order for fillable fields is too small (20 characters max) and the only way to reorder tab order is by drag and drop.
Consequently, you drag something but you can not read the place that you are dragging to.
Fix the right sidebar where it is resizable.

Adobe Forms
If required fields that are hidden are not filled, then the submit form action for a button produces an error that required fields are not completed.
I have some fields that are set to be hidden or visible depending on other information in the form.
I am searching for a script to work around this; however, I think this should already be the case as hidden fields are hidden for a reason.

Screen flashes and writable fields disappear when I'm preparing form, especially when I'm zooming
Screen flashes and fields disappear when I'm preparing a form, especially when I'm zooming in to align fields. Usually the entire screen grays out and pieces will appear as I move my mouse around. Makes it nearly impossible to create a form. Extremely buggy!!!
