  1. After working on one document for about 3 hours, Adobe decided to crash. When I reopened Adobe, it prompted me to recover the file, great, except the file it recovered was blank... This has happened several times. Is it too much to ask for an auto save feature, or some kind of crash protection? I have literally just wasted 3 hours of my time.

  2. Unknown error when trying to insert a signature.

    "Operation failed because Adobe Acrobat encountered an unknown error."

    I've closed the program and restarted my computer but the error persists.

    Hi,

    Thanks for reporting the issue to us and sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.
    This looks like a PDF specific issue. Can you please try to edit the same PDF file using Edit app. Let us know how it goes.

    Also it will be great if you can share the PDF file with us.(Mail to sagrover@adobe.com)

    Regards,
    Sandeep Grover

  3. Adobe Reader reads dashes as "to" and not "dash." Not always accurate, my organization uses Figures denoted 3-1. this should be read "three dash one" not "three to one".

  4. I always used the tick box while reviewing, using a filter so that comments I processed also disappeared. It was an easy and intuitive way of editing the source text with the help of the comments in the PDF. After the last update, the tick box is gone and now hidden. You have to click the dots in the top right corner of the comment, then select 'Set status' and then click the status. That's THREE clicks instead of one. NOT user friendly, NOT intuitive, NO improvement. Please give me back my tick box!

  5. Adobe, PLEASE update Acrobat Pro DC's accessibility standard from WCAG 2.0 to WCAG 2.1. It came out a year ago, June 2018, but Acrobat DC does not yet support it.

    Government agencies now require 2.1 to comply with accessibility legislation: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/accessibility-requirements-for-public-sector-websites-and-apps

    Our accessible PDFs are mostly for government agencies. If Acrobat does not update soon we can no longer use it and will have to find an alternative. Can anyone suggest any good apps that validate to WCAG 2.1?

  7. Add option of "Receive copy of final document?" for each signer, in case particular signer(s) do not need/want a copy or notification that the document was signed by all parties later in the signature chain.

  8. I use the mouse to scroll to find the tool is always very slow when using the "Customize Quick Tools" feature. My software version is Acrobat DC Pro 2019.012.20034, and the computer is Mac Pro 2013 ( macOS 10.14.5). My computer configuration is not low, using Acrobat and other software is not slow. Use of "Customize Quick Tools" function is always very slow, it takes a long time to add the required tools on the Toolbar.

  10. I like the quick-access to the Tools in Acrobat, but please allow us to select WHICH 4 tools we see. The defaults are Create PDF, Export PDF, Fill&Sign, and Protect, but in my workflow, I almost never use these tools. I use Edit PDF, Combine Files, Organize Pages, and Prepare Form daily, and would very much like to have these on my front page.
    Also, I have the Mobile app already. How do I get rid of the ad asking me to download it?

  11. It seems the only way to send out a trapped PDF file is to embed traps or to use In-Rip trapping. Adobe obviously has the trapping technology why not let the end user trap filed to their specs. and let them save a PDF file. I send out trapped pdf files all the time that were trapped in Prinergy to printers and publications that require the pdf files be trapped. This isn't an option in the Adobe workflow and I'm not sure why.

  12. This is a bug report.

    After a recent, involuntary update that occurred without my knowledge, I can no longer open PDFs with Adobe Acrobat DC (a product that is not listed in the product dropdown for bug reporting, by the way).

    When I try to open a PDF file, it appears briefly and then a popup window overtakes it and requires me to sign in with an Adobe ID (which I do not have and do not wish to have).

    There is no option to surpass the sign in and closing the window also closes the document I tried to…

  14. I have CC full suite and from the day I had to install Adobe Acrobat Pro DC I have been unable to print locally from any open PDF. I have tried multiple fixes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. I've updated the printer drivers and had my IT support look at it. And now that this program is embedded in everything, I can't event go back to Acrobat.

    What's the problem?

  15. Using two-finger scrolling on a laptop, the screen jumps 5-10 pages with the slightest movement. A normal mousewheel works fine, and the two-finger scrolling does too on every other application (including other PDF viewers). There seems to be a bug with the scroll speed, many other people have noticed it:

  16. When dealing with construction drawings, it would be convenient to be able to select an area for the software to take the page label from and apply it to all drawings. Along with the ability to add multiple areas or other custom words to that same field. Bluebeam does this feature beautifully and I'll be switching to Bluebeam if this is not done asap. This should be a basic fucntion and is really a no brainer.

  17. How would you like the feature to work? I want the option to search within a certain page or a certain section of a PDF. I would want this feature really accessible because I don't want to jump all around a 1000 page PDF.

    Why is this feature important to you? Improves my usability of this product.

  18. We have a functionality till Acrobat DC October 2018 release which shows the page number when combining the PDF files on Page thumbnail. This feature was enhanced in such a way that now the users have to rollover the mouse to the document to see the number of pages. It would be great if we can have a separate column which shows the page numbers in such a way we can have both complete view of the document in Page thumbnail and the page number as well without rolling over the mouse cursor to PDF.

  19. There is javascript for this but you have to enter it individually for each field and it doesnt work for radio buttons. Please add this as a standard feature. The red boxes are confusing and misleading if a form has been properly filled in.

  20. I used to choose highlighter tool and highlight sentences. Now a vertical line appears and highlights a diamond.

    This needs to be corrected! Complete BS that this does not work.

    If this is done purposely than it illustrates how the human mind of younger people working in tech has lost touch with all reality.

    Once again great software deteriorating and making getting work more troublesome and costing people jobs.

    Hail climate change and more C02!
