  1. When a link is present that points to a location within the open PDF, or another PDF, right-click should offer the option to Open Link in New Tab. We are all accustomed to doing this in our browsers and it would be a great addition to Acrobat, especially helpful when bouncing back and forth between pages. Thanks.

  2. With small devices being so common (kindle being my handheld of choice for reading) it would be very nice to have some sort of enhanced usability of a PDF for small devices. The typical page by page that looks good on a computer monitor is too small for handhelds, and while there are zoom features, that's not particularly user friendly. Some sort of self-scaling to refit smaller amounts of text per page, and typical page flipping would make PDFs much more useful on these small devices

  5. Opening a document in PDF Reader (via a web browser) is fine most of the time, but when I need to edit that document I must save it, close the reader, and re-open the document in Acrobat DC Pro. It would be helpful if there were a button in the reader to easily forward the file to DC Pro for editing.

  6. When I use the function named Edit>Preferences>Commeting>Copy selected text into Highlight, Strikethrough and Underline comment pop-up, I can add the text from Highlight to Comment box. But the text is not normal. It has the enter letter, which broke the sentence. It also happen when you copy text and paste to somewhere, it has the enter letter. I try with other softwares, such as Foxit, Microsoft Edge... and they can do this. Please update!

    1. I need to combine multiple large files of different formats- pdfs, landscape + portrait, word files with multiple page breaks/sections; some landscape & portrait. I downloaded the trial wanting to try this out, willing to pay for a high quality product to get this job done right. I was disappointed after mere tests of a couple of small files the combine pdfs command crashes every time without fail.
    2. Mac OSX 10.12.5
    3. Easily compiled files into pdf and an option to create a test fortmat (not the bookmarks solution) table of contents easily after combining.

  7. In Distiller Pro XI 11.0.20 (28/03/2017), and in many earlier versions, pdfmark is inconsistent about whether strings should be plain ASCII or in the pdf encoding. In particular, “… /Title String /OUT pdfmark” can be in the PDF encoding, but “/Label String /PAGELABEL pdfmark” must be plain ASCII.

    Example PostScript:

    %!PS

    /Times-Bold 48 selectfont
    /StringASCII (ASCII-encoded string) def
    /StringPDF (PDF-\351\361\347\370\360\353\360 \235tr\232\361g) def % Silly accents

    36 36 moveto (ASCII string) show
    mark /Dest /Page1ASCII /DEST pdfmark
    mark /Action /GoTo /Dest /Page1ASCII /Title StringASCII /Count 0 /OUT pdfmark
    mark /Label StringASCII /PAGELABEL pdfmark
    showpage

    36 36 moveto (PDF-encoded string) show

    Thank you for your bug report.
    Unfortunately, we are unable to address this problem in this version of the product, given other high priority issues.
    Feel free to reopen a new case if you think that this is critically blocking your functionality.

    Thanks

  8. I should be able to Combine or Organize a fillable pdf and a regular (non-filled) pdf. When I do, the regular pdf becomes fillable.

  11. It should be simple to create a method by which two or more consecutive text boxes can be linked in a chain. This would allow a user to continue typing from the end of one line onto the next without having to hit Tab or click into the subsequent box. In other words, continuous entry.

    The closest option to this that exists at present is Multiline, but that is useful only for text areas that completely align from left to right. That, of course, is not always the case with real-world forms, and it seems time for a more advanced…

  12. Zoom in to 300 (might also occur more or less but figuring out the exact steps to duplicate this takes a lot of time even though I accidentally cause it to happen all of the time). Start clicking on the horizontal scroll bar arrows multiple times, or hold/scroll with the actual horizontal scroll bar and eventually this will happen. I think something is triggering it to scroll in both directions... maybe something with the mouse causes it to also scroll vertically... but adobe will render up to three modals (from what I've seen) and then sometimes two of them stay…

  13. Yesterday in word we selected mailmerge and pdf and email. It emailed to our full list of over 500. Today we are sending to a new list of about 20 and following the same steps and it's now only sending to one person on the list! Please help as we still have a lot of people to send to and don't want to do this individually.
    Kind regards

  15. When creating a text field, under the General tab, where the Form Field is set to "Visible", if under the Format tab you enter the following custom script (for example):

    var message = 'Title'
    if (event.value == '') {
    event.target.display = display.noPrint
    event.value = message
    } else {
    event.target.display = display.visible
    }

    Saving the PDF apparently corrupts the file in some way where when you attempt to re-open it, it causes Acrobat to crash and the pdf is unrecoverable. When the Form Field is set to "Visible but doesn't print" no error occurs.

  16. When you split pages, there is an option "Output Options". It would be nice to have more possibilities to choose.
    For example a preview how the title of the document looks like after the splitting (Bridge has an option like this when you choose "Batch Rename") .
    Additionally it would be nice to have an option for choosing the number of digits. At the moment it looks like this after splitting:
    CataloguePage1; CataloguePage72
    Later it could be like this:
    CataloguePage001; CataloguePage072

  18. Our corporate forms have a fixed format of a table of information in the header and a different one in the footer. We were trying to migrate to Adobe Acrobat for the forms but that can't be done. Instead we have to stick with Microsoft Word for the forms. The Adobe Acrobat header/footer options are increibly limited.

  19. I work in a government entity that is moving very quickly to only online document management including sending/receiving documents only online.

    My coworker needed to extract only two pages from a 200+ page pdf that is uploaded to an online document management system. She and the other analysts have only Reader and do not have Adobe PDF Printer installed. I've no doubt this is a budget-driven scenario.

    My coworker has to print the two pages then scan them to pdf in order to work with them in the online document management system. I am dumbfounded that in this ever-increasing online,…
