  1. I have a password protected pdf. I can open it with the correct password. Then I tried to remove the protection going through below steps.

    1. Tools
    2. Protect
    3. Advance options
    4. Security properties
    5. Changed security method to "No security"

    At the fifth step, I got a prompt to enter the password again. I entered the same password I used to open the document, but it says the password is incorrect.

    I checked for non-functioning keys of my keyboard and Caps Lock key. I am sure I entered the correct password.

  3. Using the Optimize PDF to change PDFs for "Fast Web Viewing", removes text in images and figures. I've attached an example

    Windows version 2022.003.20282

    sample 1: See figure 7
    original-middleware22-53.pdf
    corrupted-middleware22-53.pdf

    Strangely, using Save-As does not corrupt the image.

  7. Acrobat is not working with BPDX files to update a search index.
    I call acrobat.exe with a bpdx file passed as an argument,acrobat launches,
    and then the window appears as it did before attempting to update the index.

    However, when I manually run the pdx file it updates the index without issue.
    How can I resolve this issue?

    [Environments]
    Windows Server 2012 R2 (64bit)
    Adobe Acrobat Pro
    File Version: 2022.003.20282
    Free Capacity of Hard Disk (C Drive): 25.5GB
    Available Physical Memory: 4.00GB

  8. If you are looking for the best way to convert the MBOX file with attachments including Email, contacts, calendars, tasks, notes, etc. Then you need to use a third-party tool like MBOX to PST converter tool.

  9. Save App Info anywhere else aside from in the Windows Credential Manager. Overpopulation of Windows Credentials is causing my CFO's Adobe software & Microsoft software to completely fail to load. MS software profiles are also getting corrupted as a result. Since the Microsoft software is critical for daily work, this may force us to stop using Adobe entirely.

  10. Using Adobe Acrobat to read, highlight, comment, etc. texts for school. However, there are times when I move the original PDF after having prepared it for use in an assignment. This unlinks the PDF from Acrobat, and all of my work is lost with no option to re-link the original file and salvage the work. Infuriating doesn't begin to describe the affect.
    I have mentioned this to other students at Columbia, and those who have used Acrobat have all responded that it is a major reason they simply don't use Acrobat unless they have to.

  11. Please provide the ability to generate custom keyboard shortcuts from within acrobat, or allow mac's keyboard shortcuts to work with acrobat. I am one of those who likes to keep their fingers on the keyboard. Thank you.
    P.S. If that's not possible, can we at least have a shortcut for Optimize Scanned Pages?

  13. I keep getting "an internal error occurred" when I try to preview documents in Windows explorer. It occasionally crashes Explorer. This is happening on two of my machines both running Windows 11. I don't recall this happening in Win 10.

    I have to disable the preview function to be able to use Explorer without it wigging out on me.

  15. On Adobe Acrobat versions 7, 8, and 9, I have been able to utilize the Acrobat Access 3.0 Type Library and the Adobe Acrobat 10.0 Type Library to Save a PDF using Visual Basic for Applications. This is done in MS Access. In Acrobat DC, these libraries, the functionality I utilize is missing.

    Code attached.

  16. Reading mode based on browser Reading Mode function. I'm aware that Acrobat already has a "reading mode" but that just hides UI elements. Reading Mode in browsers such as Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge extracts the text from the page, strips away all formatting rules such as fonts and colours and re-displays the text in a pre-set format in the user's selected font.

    This is helpful when the page is poorly designed and hard to read. I am looking at research papers for my projects and find the single-spaced Times New Roman formatting hard to read so this would be…

  18. Acrobat Pro has stopped processing BPDX files again. This has been working for me for more than a year, and suddenly stopped working after 18 October 2022 (approximately Acrobat version 2022.003.20263).

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Create an Acrobat catalog index file; e.g. C:\Flare Destinations\MasterTerminal-PDFs\JMTIndex.pdx.
    2. Create a a BPDX file named C:\Flare Tools\PDFIndex.bpdx with the contents "C:\Flare Destinations\MasterTerminal-PDFs\JMTIndex.pdx /build"
    3. Run Acrobat from the Command Prompt with:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe" "C:\Flare Tools\PDFIndex.bpdx"

    Environment:
    Windows 10 Pro 21H2 OS Build 19044.2130 and Acrobat Pro Continuous Release Version 2022.003.20263

    Expected Result:
    Acrobat Pro will open and build the PDF search index.

  20. I was redirected from the Community Support page discussing a discount for pensioners to this page. There is a generation of designers and design educators (me) who were early adopters and user testers for Adobe. We helped kill Quark. This generation who supported Adobe and encouraged widespread use in Universities and new generations of users are retiring. Currently Adobe don't offer much for these users.
