  1. When I save a pdf it takes me to the folder where I last saved a pdf instead of the file that I am currently working in. I have lost a lot of files because of this.

  2. The autosave/autorecover feature is malfunctioning. "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found" is the message I receive after being prompted to recover document after Windows restarted my computer with an Adobe documents open with unsaved changes. This occurs each time since I upgraded to the Pro version.

  3. When I first open Adobe Acrobat 2017, the PDF reader closes itself within 15-30 seconds. Sometimes it happens a second time after opening the same file. Usually it will stay open the third time on that document. When I open a separate file, the crashing happens all over again. I checked for updates and the software says it is up-to-date (17.011.30194). It is so frustrating as I am trying to work on various documents and it crashes like this. I expect more. Please resolve this ASAP!

  4. Whenever Acrobat DC updates -- it resets the tools listing i have customized on the sidebar. I wouldn't mind the addition of new tools to the list -- but stop removing the tools i have added. Thanks

  5. When we use red aloud mode, the language should be recognized or we should have the choice. Here the pdf is in French and it reads in English. Incomprehensible

  6. When using measurement tool, the holding the "SHIFT" key to maintain a straight measurement to a parallel feature, shows the dimension in an angled configuration. Cannot find a way to show the measurement label properly. This should be a very basic functionality of the measurement tool.

  7. This isn't an idea, it is a Bug Report. For many weeks, even months, I have been trying to get a simple time stamp to again print at the bottom center of pages. What I have been getting is hieroglyphics. It used to work fine. I have tried the repair feature or function, but it hasn't fixed the problem. Please provide a fix. I have been having to use PDF Architect to get what I need. ---fjk (... and why won't your website take my valid email address? I will have to use an alternate address and hope it works.)

  8. Hi,

    We have 3 newer Microsoft surface Pro Xs which have ARM processors. Adobe Acrobat Pro DC has just stopped working suddenly on them. I have spoken with Adobe via the chat and get sent the link to the page which shows the requirements for windows devices to have AMD or Intel processors.

    However, as I mentioned, Acrobat Pro DC has worked fine until now for several months. Please can you assist with this?

  9. This needs to be fixed. We are wasting a lot of time constantly be required to sign in to our account, often times on a weekly basis.
    We have an annual subscription and this should not be happening.
    Frankly I'm getting **** tired of it.
    FIX THIS!!!

  10. The scale ratio requires you to input decimals rather than fractions when measuring architectural scales, i.e. 0.125" = 1'-0" for 1/8" = 1'-0". However, after inputting the decimals, Acrobat rounds to the nearest 2 decimal places. So 0.125" becomes 0.13". Doing so makes all measurements off by .005". This is unacceptable in the architectural world. This functionality should NEVER round the decimals, and should house at least 3 decimal places to ensure accuracy.

    This occurs on Mac and Windows, in every version of Acrobat and Acrobat Pro currently downloadable. It was tested by my team and internally at Adobe.

  12. Since acrobat pro dc 20135, and patch 20138, 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. Then message appears "fatal search engine error (-6) not able to find the file". I just went through an issue - after update 20135, with acrobat not being able to search a PDX file - saying file not found. Update 20138 fixed the issue with acrobat but I suspect the issue still exists…

    Hi,

    The issue has been fixed in our latest Acrobat release (version# 21.001.20142). Please update your Acrobat and let us know if you’re still facing this issue.

    Thanks
    Adobe Acrobat DC Team

  13. Since the 2021 update (21.001.20135), there is an error when using multiple (overlaying) instances of the progress bar with JavaScript. Code that used to work before now generates an error.

    The error is:

    GeneralError: Operation failed.
    Thermometer.value:1:Console undefined:Exec
    

    To reproduce this, run the following code from the console (JavaScript Debugger):

    // Define the progress bar (thermometer) as a variable for easy reference
    var t = app.thermometer;
    // Start a progress bar
    t.begin();
    // Now start another progress bar
    t.begin();
    // Now end the top progress bar
    t.end();
    // Now try to set the incremental value of the progress bar
    t.value

  14. Adobe Acrobat DC (21.001.20135)

    Yesterday 11/2/21, my Adobe Acrobat DC pro stopped searching indexes I have made. I Opened an index file (*.pdx) which I built using Adobe Acrobat DC pro a couple of weeks previous and when you search for a term, no results are found.
    So I re-built the index again (~8 mins duration) and the index was then able to return hits on search terms. It worked throughout the day yesterday with no problems.

    This morning, I opened the index again (the one I re-built on 11/2) and again it doesn't find any results on search terms…

  15. Hello,

    My company is in need of a feature that allows the user to control the auto-naming of drag and drop extract pages from Adobe Acrobat.

    Currently, when selecting a few pages from an existing PDF, dragging and dropping them into a file folder onto the computer, the file created is automatically named "Untitled Extract Pages."

    I have a PDF with 400 pages. I have to extract 2-3 at a time and manually rename them. This wouldn't be an issue if they all needed different names, but I need them to keep the same name as the parent file with…

  16. Searching for Words will sometimes end in more than one result on each page of a multi page document.

    What i would like to suggest today is having a shortcut for "Find on next Page".

    This will be very useful if you have e.g. a stack of independent invoice pages an looking for a specific invoice containing the search pattern. If the search pattern was found multiple times on each page, it's a bit annoying to walk throu each result on a single page while avaiting a next result on another page.

    Can be gladly realized using a combination of…

  17. Provide Auto-Cancel at end of year.

    Other services allow you to check a box that says; after the year if up, would you like us to auto-renew your subscription? And you can select yes or no.

    Please provide this option, I'm forced into remembering to cancel it within a month and risk paying for a product I never use for the whole year because of missing it.

  18. In the Adobe SDK Extension to the PDF (ISO32000) standard, Extension Level 3, there are several Array structures that encode a series of control points for Geospatial measurement.

    In particular, we are interested in the /GPTS and /LPTS arrays in the Geospatial Measure Dictionary.

    Since the elements of these arrays are PDF number objects, we can only expect a limited amount of floating-point precision to be preserved by PDF reader implementations (which typically represent PDF number objects as either 32-bit integers or 32-bit IEEE 754 single-precision floating point). This amount of precision is often insufficient for workflows that involve recovering…

  20. This is a bug report. It starts as soon as you enable thumbnails in Acrobat DC (or earlier also). Explorer.exe starts crashing. Screenshot attached. Removing thumbnails fixes the issue.
