1. Acrobat crashes on Mojave when playing movies

   Acrobat (version 2019.012.20034) crashes constantely when playing interactive PDFs with movies created in Indesign. Computers still on High Sierra with Acrobat 2019.010.20098 do not have this issue.
   On Mojave, as soon as you want to play an embedded movie, Acrobat crashes with this:
   This PDF cannot be viewed in Acrobat or Reader, and the application will
   now exit
   Please help, we have updated most of our computers in the uni and students can't view interactive PDFs anymore.

2. update Acrobat Pro DC 2019.012.20034 crashes when playing movies

   Hello, I've created Indesign interactive PDFs for many years (mainly lecture course material), until Acrobat Pro DC version 2019.010.20098 all went well. After the update to 2019.012.20034 all files (from the last three years) with movies in them crash with the error:
   This PDF cannot be viewed in Acrobat or Reader, and the application will
   now exit
   This is horrible news for our university, can you please help? Obviously we made sure that Flash etc is up to date. Also we tried different security and multemedia legacy options.
   As a "work-around" we are currently re-exporting all Indesign content to fixed layout ePubs …
   What has happened here?
   Many thanks
   Stefan

4. Browsing Advanced Search Results

   In versions before Acrobat Pro DC you could scroll through advanced search results with the down arrow. Now you must select and click on the entry, a HUGE time waster and annoying step backward in Acrobat's functionality.

5. Adobe Acrobat DC - Much buggier than older version, multiple issues

   Many issues - generally really don't like the new format because it's much harder to get to simple things like "create a red box", "add text", "edit text", "add signature", etc. But also is critically screwing up my documents in ways that make it untenable to work with. If possible, I would get off of this product (I can't because my employer buys the licenses) and here are the reasons why:
   1. Literally reverted my entire document after working on it for 10 days because it couldn't identify some of the text characters (it's got a ton of formulas in it with unique characters). So if I had not been saving every 5 minutes due to crashes, I would have lost the entire document to editing unique characters into ".". This is awful - I can't believe that this product is capable of essentially erasing everything I worked on 10 days into working with special characters.
   2. It crashes CONSTANTLY. I am not doing anything that requires a lot of RAM/only simple tasks. Literally just adding text boxes to a simple document and putting red boxes around some of the above mentioned formulas. I'd say I've had a crash at least twice a day. The auto-save feature seems to only save occasionally - on average I probably was losing an hour's worth of work every time it crashed until I started saving every few minutes.
   3. Again, why is it so hard to get to simple stuff like draw a box? I go to draw a box and the section where drawing boxes is supposed to be is grayed out. Anyway, editing text and adding text boxes has been a total nightmare. It's totally inconsistent. It will add tabs within text boxes seemingly without reason (I can't find the format options, so I definitely am not choosing to format). For some reason, if a text box has multiple rows sometimes (not always, but about about 50% of the time) it will separate each row into a separate text box so that I can never edit it again without creating a new text box and copying in all of the text from the separate boxes. It sends to back text boxes sometimes and makes it so I can't reach them without undoing my actions and I can't figure out for the life of me how to bring to front (I think I found this option but it doesn't appear to make what I'm editing... come to the front).

   I am so fed up with this product. I know other people who's organizations have reverted to other software packages and I'm jealous of them. If this was a product that I used more extensively at work (I do use it frequently at work, just not to the extent I have over the last few weeks), I don't think I could handle it. Also, please just Google "Adobe DC review" and look at the comments in the positive reviews by PCReviews or whatever the first hit is - the review is absolutely not consistent with user feedback. Or Google "Adobe DC terrible" and you'll find literally thousands of articles. What happened to the versions of this product that made sense? It seems like you just keep on adding features for the sake of adding features, not because the user community (not the same group that want to play on their iPhones - we all are working on this program, not noodling around in our spare time) has asked for it. Give me simple drop downs and user interfaces and fix these bugs in the next version. Who in the world is editing their PDFs on a Tablet? if they were, this interface would still be incredibly difficult to use. Let's get back to good, Adobe.

6. Bug - PDFMaker Office Addin converting italic font to italic bold

   Using the "Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Addin" to convert a word document to pdf. If the font is Georgia and is set to italics, when the pdf is viewed in Chrome it shows the italic text as bold. When viewed using Acrobat or Reader, the font appears correct. It does not happen when using any other pdf converter (i.e. office's built-in converter) so it appears to be limited to the PDFMaker tool.

   I have replicated this on multiple Windows 10 and Windows 7 computers, and I am using Office 365. This only appears to happen using Georgia font, which is the only font I am able to use for my work documents.

   Attachment is a test file that I have converted using PDFMaker (This is a test.pdf). Only the bottom two lines are bold, but if viewed in Chrome the non-bold italic line also appears as bold. The second attachment is the same file but converted with another converter (This is a test2.pdf). This pdf renders correctly in Chrome.

7. Add proper LongPath support

   Adobe fails to open files when a file path & name exceed MAX_PATH. Windows no longer has a hard path character limit if the LongPathsEnabled key is set in the registry. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/fileio/naming-a-file#maximum-path-length-limitation

   Modern applications are adopting this new standard with the mentioned file management hooks provided by the OS.

   Adobe is falling behind in this regard. Please add proper Long Path support.

8. Adobe Acrobat Reader for Linux

   Linux users are in dire need of a PDF reader and editor ever since Adobe discontinued the Adobe Reader (version 9.x) for Linux!

   None of the currently available (free or proprietary) PDF readers for Linux has proper support for annotating and commenting PDF files. Filling forms and signing documents is also only rudimentary supported by some of the currently available PDF readers for Linux.

   Thus, this is a request to revive Linux support for the latest Adobe Reader as well as the full Adobe Acrobat suite.

9. Bug Report - Adobe Acrobat 2017 - Version 2017.011.30142

   Upgrade version 2017.011.30142 from (old version) 2017.011.30138 caused issues with Protected View.

   Error: Adobe freezes when clicking "Enable all features".
   OS: Windows 10 X64 1803
   - Only occurs with fillable PDFs
   - Definitely isolated the issue to the upgrade on 4 computers. Older version works perfectly.

10. Set a default order for when combining files

    Rather than re-ordering and re-arranging pdfs within a combined file, I would like to be able to determine the order files are compiled. This can be by file title (alphabetically) or others. Right now when I combine several files into one pdf, they are scrambled out of order and I have to rearrange manually which can be cumbersome for larger compilations.

12. Bug? pdf in email is legible when opened on iPhone BUT all pages are grey fuzz after using Copy To Acrobat

    Is this a bug with reader for IOS or something wrong with this file? I received 2 files in the original email. When I open them on my iPhone, I can see the contents in both files. The file having issues has a ****** first page and the rest isn't a really clean scan but all pages are legible. After Copy To Acrobat, the attached file has nothing recognizable.

    I tried to "Copy to Acrobat". Both files saved to acrobat but the attached file opens up as all grey fuzz. No characters visible, nothing. This doesn't happen when I open on my Mac and save to drive then open with preview or adobe reader dc.
    I removed reader for iOS and reinstalled, as well as updated to iOS 12.3 and it still doesn't work on my phone.
    I've attached the file as saved onto my computer. I've also attached it in the *.eml

13. Adobe Acrobat Pro DC won't convert JPG to PDF when right clicking on file

    This just became a problem today. Whenever I have right clicked on a JPG or PNG file in the past I can choose to Convert to Adobe PDF and it would automatically do so. As of this morning I am no longer able to do that and keep getting the error message that is attached.

    Yes, I can open Illustrator and print to PDF BUT it doesn't allow me to just use the artboard as the entire PDF file. It automatically places it in the middle of a letter sized sheet with a lot of white space around it. Please advise.

17. Cannot move pdf without closing Acrobat Reader 2017

    I have this issue with Acrobat Reader 2017. I am trying to sort through a bunch of pdf files and place them in the proper folders. I've come across this bug. If I recently open a pdf in Reader and close it in Reader, I cannot move or delete the file until ALL of the pdfs in reader are closed for a while.

    So, basically, I've closed the file I want to move and have removed it from the Recent files, but I still cannot move the file until I completely close the Reader.

    How do I fix this? I would like to be able to move recently opened files without having to completely close the Reader each and every time.

    Please skip over the questions about updates. My program is run by my university and they are big on mandatory updates. As soon as you release them, my computer downloads them automatically, no matter what I am working on. So, please spare me.

    Combine Files option operation does not operate logically. If you open one document and want to add another PDF, click the ADD button, select the other PDF, and click on Combine, all you get is the second selected document! So the Add button does not work logically or properly.

20. Automated tool

    Every week my team members print approximately a 280-page pdf of medical billing. Next, each member prints 280 pages and combs through the pdf for certain billing codes they have been assigned to enter. My hope is that with Acrobat DC there is an automated or even just a quick way to sort the 280-page pdf for specific criteria (number or word) and then export to a new, much smaller pdf that only contained the data members sort by.
