  2. When using the Find Text Tool, it doesn't recognize symbols anymore (e.g. : ; #), and for entertainers, actors, editors, etc, reading a script on PDF, this is a huge issue because that symbol is the only differentiating factor in looking through 100s of pages of dialogue (e.g. "Bill was running to the scene" vs "Bill: Hi, everyone!"). Now people have to spend hours going through a script instead of minutes.

  3. Bonjour,
    Sur la nouvelle version d'Acrobat, il n'est plus possible d'utiliser la fonction d'Ancrage de fenêtres dans Windows.
    Voici l'exemple.

  4. Please restore compatibility between the Mac OS accessibility key strokes and Adobe pdf reader/editing software. The Mac OS keystrokes opt+esc definitely don't work within Acrobat Pro. Within Acrobat the system just reads the title of the document and stops. When I take the same pdf file and open it in an alternate software like Preview, the key strokes work to read selections aloud. Please fix this bug. Afterall, you don't want users to give up on your software and use other products to get around Acrobat accessibility issues, right? :)

  6. Complex formulas are typed up in Latex for maths research and PDFs are created. We do some editing in Adobe Acrobat Pro afterwards to the PDFs. This was working fine until a few months ago.

    Symbols started randomly disappearing from PDFs. The same symbol in the same article disappears in some cases but doesn't in others. We have tried fixing the font problem in case some fonts are not on our version. We never know which documents will have a problem and which ones won’t. It’s random and mysterious.

    It's not a simple case of missing fonts or outdated fonts…

  7. 以前のバージョンではPDFの表示倍率を常時、数値で見ることが可能でした。

    現在のバージョンになって、常時、数値の表示が無くなっています。
    また、現在のバージョンで確認のために数値表示したくても、
    +または-の虫眼鏡マークをクリックすると、拡大倍率が変わってしまう為、
    わからなくなってしまいます。非常に困っています。

    表示倍率の数値表記を復活させていただけると助かります。

  8. Adobe Acrobat Reader is behaving like malware. I choose to use another PDF reader as my default for opening PDFs, every now and then the Adobe Acrobat Reader updates itself (also without my permission, or any option for control I can find), it takes the liberty to change my default settings for PDF files. This is not OK!

    It even changes my Windows PC's default PDF reader if I make an certain changes to the Adobe Reader Preferences.

    Is uninstalling Adobe Reader the only way I can fix this?

  9. I would like the option to close or hide the floating toolbar (see attached picture). It's not always needed, and it's frustrating to have it hanging around and having to move it around to keep it out of the way. If I could close it or move it to the menu bar, that would be ideal. But right now it only allows movement within the document window.

  11. Since most common thing people do in this program is to Open files, that "Open" command should be always easy to get to, instead it's hidden within Menu you have to click to get to it

  12. I ran into an issue where shortly after opening Adobe Acrobat the program would close with no indication of what was causing it to close. When trying to run Acrobat as Administrator I was shown a "adobelicensingwf_acro.exe" error (See Attached image).

    After trying to open the program a few more times I noticed that Acrobat would close about the same time as the profile picture would change from the default account to my account picture (See Attached image). It seemed to be closing the program after a handshake with the adobe web service. That reminded me to check…

  13. In the previous version of Adobe, after hitting 'Ctrl-S' to save, you could then hit 'Enter' on the popup window to then open the most recent folder you have been saving to, now, unless you click the folder with your cursor, 'Enter' defaults to opening Documents as your save destination.

    • The Ability To Scan & Recognize Sheet Music (Fonts, Dynamics, Staff, etc.)
    • Example: Avid's Neuratron Photoscore or Finale's ScanScore 3 Professional. However, Their OCR Recognition is Terrible, always with numerous mistakes.
    • Adobe Acrobat will attempt to Scan/Recognize, but replace the Music Fonts with System Fonts, Recognize the Staff as Underline, etc., and Ruin the Music Score. I have experienced this while editing/creating Music Books with Sheet Music Professionaly.

  14. Return to the previous version's interface. Reduce the additional steps added in new version and eliminate the over-complification of simple procedures. I just spent an hour trying to number my pages. I found the functions only after looking up on Google and searching for 20 minutes. But the windows themselves were absolutely NOT intuitive. I had to contact an agent. The first agent I got disconnected from. Bates numbering was made to appear as the only option, but the agent showed me how to find the plain numbers under header and footer on the edit toolbar. But via the previous…

  15. All menus should stay at the TOP out of the way, not all over the sides eating up my document real-estate. And now there's a FLOATING MENU RIGHT ON TOP OF MY DOCUMENT that I cannot get rid of. A moderator commented - Choose Help/Check for Updates, and update your acrobat and that floating menu will be docked again. But it says NO UPDATE AVAILABLE.

    PLEASE leave the user interface CONFIGURABLE so we can set it up the way we need.

    I long for the old days when the Acrobat interface was open and simple... instead of trying to cram…

  16. All of my personal settings in my user interface did not transfer during this update. I come to work this morning and have to re-learn how to find the tools that I use every day. Simple navigation is a major task. This completely wiped out my morning's productivity, which is EXTREMELY FRUSTERATING. Please please please dont do this to your users without our concent. Guide us where these features where moved to. ;lkhjg;lnrvwek;lvoiwegf

  18. Reade DC 2003.006.20360

    MakeAccessible.api plugin causes unresponsive UI and extremely slow loading times. How serious it is depends on the complexity of the loaded PDF. It is expecially egregious for CAD plots with layers and geospacial infromation. For such files, the program is completely unresponsive for several dozen of seconds and with more complex files even for several minutes. After disabling the plugin, files that took several minutes to open now open instantly.

  19. Why does the new layout differ so much from the old one. The best thing is the switch button to the old version. Better would be a structure by toolbar, menu and panels like in Photoshop.
