Long-Standing Bug: "Rely on System Fonts Only" Resets After Every Major Update
I am writing to formally report a bug that has persisted across multiple versions of Adobe Acrobat and affects virtually every professional user in business environments.
The Problem
After every major Acrobat update, the "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" setting in the Adobe PDF printer resets to checked, causing print-to-PDF jobs to fail and generate error log files instead of PDF output. The only resolution is to manually uncheck the setting after each update, either through Printing Preferences or Printer Defaults.
This has been documented in Adobe community forums dating back well over four years,…1 vote -
copies field too narrow
The Copies field Acrobat's Print setup window is too narrow to accommodate three digits; it only shows two (even though it will capture three digits.) Widen the field so it will accommodate three digits.

Double sided failure
Double sided printing prints on short side no matter what option I choose or my paralegal, on a separate machine, chooses. No problem using Preview. Acrobat is now useless to us.

Adobe PDF Converter Printing Preferences need to stop resetting after update
There is an existing similar request/report from 2021 that has yet to be addressed, but I voted for it and will post this to help it along
I am trying to use the Adobe PDF printer with Driver Adobe PDF Converter in a production environment. I have set up an Adobe Output Folder, unchecked “View PDF results”, unchecked “Rely on system fonts”, and set up a custom Paper Size. I have set these using Print Management, both the Printing Defaults and the Printing Preferences.
I am told on the Community forum that whenever there is an Acrobat update these settings…

Therefore the Acrobat pro Cloud service should include newest GWG profile (2022) - and user should be able to add new kpfx files in future.1 vote -
Acrobat Pro Print Dialog Keeps Defaulting to 2 Copies
My issue appears similar to the unaddressed Dec. 2025 report titled “the printing window always shows up with 2 copies preset to print.” I am adding my case because the issue is still occurring in Acrobat Pro: the print dialog permanently defaults to 2 copies even after changing it back to 1.
This appears to have started after I printed 2 copies once, and Acrobat now treats that as the permanent default. This is only happening in Acrobat; Word and other programs still default to 1 copy, so it does not appear to be a printer-driver default.

Can't Print due to "InvalidFont" Error
PDFs only print the first 1/3 of the document with latest Adobe version (2026.001.21431) on Mac (26.3.1 (a)).
Using HP Color LaserJet MFP M283fdw with latest firmware (20251014).
When I turned POSRSCRIPT Error printing on, the printer was able to tell me why it quit partway through the document.
"POSTSCRIPT Warning
Subsystem: PARSER
Warning: PDFSender_Interp.c
Line Number: 1794
Error Information: Reported by PDL
invalidfont"Same error prints out for every occurance of the issue. Error occurs for all PDF documents printed using Acrobat. Error does not occur when using a browser to view/print the PDF.

Adobe with custom font = scranbled and unreadable document. Microsoft free pdf print for the same document = fully legibel pdf print.
Not sure why a paid subscription version of acrobat performs at a lower level than a free microsoft pdf printer. Acrobat needs to be able to understand and read custom fonts added to the windows font directory. If users had to custom locate fonts for every piece of sofware that uses them, work would never get done. Seriously, this is a fail.

Printing PDFs from macOS 26 hit and miss
Printing some forms and documents from Acrobat Pro works while others don't. The application opens the printer (HP M454dw with the latest firmware), but then never prints and never generates an error message.
However, printing the same document that fails to print in Acrobat Pro works in the free version of Acrobat Reader.
It also works with Apple's Preview app. Only the Pro version of Acrobat seems to experience a problem2 votes -
Acrobat Pro no longer recognizes HP PCL 6 Printer Driver paper size changes
Acrobat Pro no longer recognizes changes to the paper size made in the HP Universal Printing PCL 6 drivers.
When I change the paper size in the Printer Properties dialog for the PCL 6 printer, Acrobat's print dialog no longer recognizes the new paper size and no longer changes the preview to indicate the new size. This is reproducible 100% of the time.
I had been using an older PCL 6 driver (7.0.0.24832) for years, and about four months ago an update to Acrobat caused this behavior to start. Every Acrobat version since has had the same issue. I am…

Cannot print. I have receive a messaged a message for two days stating Upgrading Key features
Ever since downloading Acrobat Pro, I can no longer print PDF's from my MacBook. I deleted all Adobe programs with the uninstaller and installed the basic reader again and still cannot print. I have to email and print from my phone. The error message has said "Download-thanks for your patience" for two days. What do you recommend?

"An error occurred while printing the document, kindly use our help page to trouble shoot."
Your AI is useless. I cannot figure out how to get ANY Help from Adobe. I click Visit Help. I try their fix, but I cannot get to "
"Open Acrobat.
Select Menu > Help > " THIS IS WHERE I AM STYMIED. WHERE IS THE NEXT STEP CHECKING FOR UPDATES."Check for updates (Windows) or Help > Check for updates (macOS).
Install available updates and restart Acrobat. "
Your AI help is helpless, clueless and wasting my time.

How to stop the "Double sided print" option from automatically turning on?
I have wasted so much paper because of this ****** bug. Printing double sided should never ever be automatic or the default setting. I turn it off all of the time, and even went into settings to disable double sided book printing, yet it still randomly turns it back on. This has to stop.

Automatic page selection failed with Brother MFC-J6955DW Printer
The latest (late 2025) Acrobat print dialog promises to automatically select the paper tray based on the document size. I have a Brother MFC-J6955DW Printer with A3 paper in Tray 1 and A4 paper in Tray 2. Acrobat sends my A4 document to Tray 1, which the Brother printer is smart enough to reject. I can manually select Tray 2 and then print, but why advertise a feature that should easily work, that even my printer is smart enough to error check, yet does not work when it should? If you remove the feature, I wouldn't miss it. But a…

Acrobat Reader won't print on a Brother L3780CDW model printer. I just installed this printer and updated all firmware and drivers on Windows 10. There is no print output from Acrobat Reader. I can open the PDF in Microsoft Word, and it prints just fine. The printer is visible in the Adobe Acrobat Reader print dialog, but it's nonfunctional. No job appears in the print queue. The printer is connected to the computer through WiFi.

Detect 4x6 Shipping Label in document for 4x6 Label printer
Detect a 4x6 Shipping Label within a PDF and allow printing just the Label on 4x6 Label printer.
So many "normies" receive a label in an 8.5x11 PDF and would not be able to figure out how to get the the label centered in a smaller 4x6 document for standard Label Printing.

unable to print page 1,1 in a single-page-document
I want to print page 1 twice, but it ist impossible to chose pages (here: 1,1), when a dokument has just one page.
Why I want to do so?
Example 1: Print two pages on one sheet of paper, then cut the paper an you get 2 smaller ones. (2 times A4 portrait printed as two times A5 portrait on one sheet of paper A4 landscape)*
Example 2: Print a document containing 2 vertical pages (columns) on one horizontal page twice duplex, then cut the paper. So you get two sheets of paper contaning the left page/column at one side…
