For years I experienced crashes when saving documents that had backgrounds graphics added in Acrobat. The bug was triggered by the fact, that my os language was english and my Acrobat language preferences were set to German. (see https://acrobat.uservoice.com/forums/590923-acrobat-for-windows-and-mac/suggestions/39351328-program-crashes-while-saving-after-background-has)
If you are experiences similar problems, make sure to set your program language to the same language as your OS.
It's a very nasty and confusing problem. I hope it will be fixed in the future.

When sending bills or other letters as PDF I add our company logo in the background of the document via Acrobat. Everything works as expected until I save. Then the program crashes every time. The file however emerges complete and intact after I restart Acrobat.

MacOS 10.13.6
Acrobat PRO DC 2019.021.20061

• Export PDF via Save Dialog from MS Word (ver. 16.16.17)


• Open PDF in Acrobat


• Add Background (PDF File with Vector Graphic)


• Save -> CRASH

I use the current version of Acrobat, but the issue has been persistent for years.

Currently, Adobe Acrobat Pro DC is not 100% ADA compliant. Specifically, one cannot create or edit PDFs if one uses a screen reader to navigate around their computer screen (i.e. is blind/visually impaired). I currently use JAWS 2018, Windows 10, and have Acrobat Pro DC. I've attempted to create and edit from combining PDFs, using copies, etc. I've even tried using some of your tutorial items to test with and have had the same results (ex. Bodea's Brochure -- the brochure your website tutorial has specifically for practicing editing).

When I edit a document, I do not necessarily want to edit existing text. I do not want Acrobat to do an OCR process on the document and create uncountable text boxes (that can easily be messed up), when all I wanted to do was either crop the image or add a text box. Please allow the OCR conversion to be toggled off.
Also when scanning, if you go into an option like increase resolution, all of the changes (like selection of document size) made on the previous screen are lost and have to be entered again Too time consuming!

Running Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017 on Windows 10.

Expected result:
1. Create text link.
2. In PDF, right click link and select Edit Link.
3. Select Actions.
4. In Select Action, choose Execute a Menu Item, then click Add.
5. In Menu Item dialog, see list of available menu items.

Observed result:
1. Create text link.
2. In PDF, right click link and select Edit Link.
3. Select Actions.
4. In Select Action, choose Execute a Menu Item, then click Add.
5. In Menu Item dialog, NO LIST of menu items appears.

There is one button where you can delete text/insert text but I can't find it

Acrobrat freezes whe I try to add text to a document. I can't figure out why.

unable to process the page because the paper capture recognition service has experienced an error. code 10001

i uninstalled and reinstalled software
i signed in and out
problem has been on going over 4 days

When i use the edit PDF function and attempt to edit the text, the wrong letters are appearing after i type. For instance, when i type the letter "N" , "h" shows up, and when I type "o" , "b" shows up. This is extremely frustrating. Please help!

When I saved the file, all of the text has been gone and the only thing that was left are numbers and pictures.

This has been reported on another thread and marked as solved - it isn't. I have just purchased a copy of Acrobat Pro and am unable to edit .pdf's, which is precisiely why I bought it. The subscription simply isn't worth the money without this capability.

I have noticed some suggested solutions but these are highly technical and not something I would have access to do at work.

Could a solution be suggested - fast - as it seems as though this is quite a common error?

how to fix the problem

How do I upload Open Sans Light Font into my Adobe Acrobat

So I bought this damned thing to edit a pdf. Is it editing the pdf? No. Can I cut? No. The cut command is greyed out. FFS.

$276 right down the drain. Thanks so much, Adobe.

Inserting a table:
I have no idea how to insert a table in a PDF. The instructions say 'go to insert'. I cannot seem to find the icon- insert.
