  2. I am unable to browse the URL that was generated with Microsoft Word 2007, there is no option to browse to the URL in question for some reason or to make better use of HTML tags.

    I can browse to https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6393913409312112068#allposts/src=sidebar, using Google Chrome but when I click through the file I cannot browse through to the blog included within the PDF that was exported as a PDF for it to be read only, hopefully.

  3. The Select Tool is the default tool. I never use it and have never seen a need to use it. It makes the screen turn blue and wants to select things instead of letting me drag and move around the page to review large documents. I always have to stop what I'm doing and switch to the hand tool. I am opening and managing easily over 100 PDFs a day and having to switch at every new document is frustrating and time consuming. Adding this as an option would save so much time for users that need this as their…

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.
    You can still achieve your outcome via the thumbnail panel, just right click on thumbnail panel and select ‘Enlarge page thumbnails’.
    Enlarge the thumbnails to your desired size & then proceed with your rearrangement.
    Hope this helps!

  5. In acrobat X you could set the program to always open PDFs with thumbnails open and page view next to it.

    Tech support told me the added the "feature" of removing that setting. and replacing it with file-by-file interface settings. That's a loss of functionality.

    I get many PDFs from outside sources and I have to integrate pages from them into other documents, for which I need two acrobat windows open with thumbnails showing so I can drag-and-drop pages.
    Thus every single one of those new files I have to manually re-open the thumbnails, because my Acrobat has never see…

    Sorry fot the inconvenience caused to you.

    You can still achieve your desired outcome by following below mentioned steps.
    1) Open a pdf file.
    2)Open another file and drag the tab out such that you have two pdfs in two different windows side by side.
    3) From the thumbnail view for both windows.
    4) Now you can drag your desired page from one file to another and integrate pages.

  7. Some PDF documents seem to contain meta data content that's causing Adobe Acrobat DC and Adobe Acrobat Reader to move/resize their program window when such document is opened.

    This behaviour is rather annoying and it may lead to accessibility issues.

    Please, either stop Acrobat/Reader from moving/resizing their program window when opening a document containing such meta data information, or provide an accessibility option in Preferences to optionally have Acrobat ignore that meta data information.

    Hi,
    The issue faced by you is due to the setting of the document set by the user. Please see the following setting in the document :
    1. Open Document→File → Properties → Initial View Tab → uncheck Center Window on screen

    Please make sure the setting is not checked in your document to avoid the issue.

    Thanks
    Rachit

  8. Permanent crop tool that actually removes cropped content. Masking content does not work for PDFs that need to be later uploaded online. It botches thumbnail creation and causes files to be unnecessarily large.

  10. Adobe Acrobat Pro won't remember magnification setting (fit page) after save and close. If I reopen the file after quitting Acrobat it shows the previous default setting. If I force quit and reopen then the change shows. Seems its caching the old settings unless I force quit to clear.

    Hi,

    Greetings!

    You can directly create bookmarks by selecting the text and pressing ctlr/cmd+b.
    The bookmark will be created with required heading or text.

  13. This is not about Adobe Reader it is about Adobe Digital Edition. As there is no entry for ADE I chose the first one on the list and hope that a category for the ADE is created.

    The problem is that Adobe Digital Edition is a Digital Reader and that you can't actually read your books through loss of access to the file or it appears that way. I assumed it was this as I cannot access your file either so assumed there would be nothing wrong with that file. I am using it through my council library membership which…

    I am assuming your concerns have been resolved. Let us know otherwise.

  14. I don't want to save the document in Word, I just want to save the PDF in "my documents" on my computer. Is there no way to do this? Or if there is what is the magic spell I have to put on Adobe to do that. Cannot access the Adobe Cloud- whatever that is- to attach documents.

  17. I often have two PDFs open at the same time, side by side, for referencing purposes. Now with the Acrobat DC I don't have that choice as both opened files are now in the same 'tabbed' PDF window. I can see the two files 'serially' but not side by side.
    What to do?????

    Hi,

    You can drag the newly opened tab out and your PDF will now be open in new Acrobat window.

    Thanks

  18. Provide Option to Open In Less Than Full Screen Mode.

    I work with multiple documents on may PC screen. Every time I open Adobe Acrobat Pro DC, it fills the whole screen and I have to go fishing for the corner of the screen to shrink it. I'd like to concentrate when I work, not get distracted or annoyed.

    Your support would be greatly appreciated.
