OCR is not working on Adobe Acrobat. I've spent 3 hours with tech support on my computer. They don't seem to understand what OCR is suppos
Adobe Acrobat won't work. I've spent 3 hours with two different tech support people, with them coming into my system. They don't seem to understand how OCR is supposed to work. They tell me that adobe thinks my handwriting is an image. Too bad. It's my fault. That is ludicrous. I thought I just didn't know how to do the final steps of a conversation to text. I know that OCR works. I just can't get it to work on my laptop with Adobe Acrobat DC that I pay for monthly.
Can anyone help, who understand how it is supposed…

Invert colours on images embedded in pdf files.
Invert colours on images embedded in pdf files.
Hi
I'm visually impaired. I find anything with a white background unreadable.
I can change text and text background colours to make text readable but I cannot find a method to change colours used in images embedded in pdf files.
Please can you add an accessibility option to invert colours in embedded images so black becomes white and white becomes black. NB. All colours will need to be inverted not just black and white.
1 voteHi,
I have shared the request with the Engineering team and higher management. I’ll update you once we plan on implementing the same.Thanks

Accessibility settings are difficult to find
Why default to yellow text on white background? It's impossible to read. Personally, some DARK themes would be desirable, i.e. yellow text on black background. Is a SIMPLE link to change SETTINGS in this regard?
1 voteHi,
Thank you for contacting us.
You can change the theme for the application by View Menu→Display Theme → Choose desired theme.
Also for changing the theme for the PDF, Go to Preferences → Accessibility → Check Checkbox Replace Document Colors → Check Radio button Use High contrast Colors → Select the theme from High-Contrast color combination as per your requirement.Please confirm if this resolves your issue.
Thanks

checkmarks need to be not user-specific (or set status should be more easily accessible)
(checked) checkmarks should be visible for others that open the file > that way you can share which comments are done and which are not.
Orrr make the status more accessible so you don't have to right click / drop down to check it. If you have over 100 comment to check it is too tedious a job :)1 vote -

Avenir Next Font does not display correctly - only in Acrobat Pro
When viewing a PDF that has the Avenir Next font type used in the body of text, the letters will not display properly when a bold or heavy style is applied to that font. Some letters are raised higher than they should be in comparison to other letters of the same upper or lower case status. See attached images. I've included the same exact font, string of text, and same exact file used, but one is displayed in adobe acrobat pro and the other is displayed on the web.

Freeze on opening Document
Acrobat suddenly began to constantly freeze after opening any document. I uninstalled it and tried to reinstall but got a 136 error. I'm on MacOS 10.15.2 "Catalina" on a MacPro (late 2013)

Invoice notification or receival via email
There is no option to receive the invoices via email nor to the option to receive a notification when the invoice has been raised on your account.
Can this be implemented? I believe in this era at least one of the two should be granted.

Full Access to Other Programs
The version I currently have does not allow me to access other programs like Outlook or other Adobe files while I am creating an email directly from Adobe. I need to either complete and send the email I started or cancel out of it. This is a very ineffective glitch adobe offers. This reduces the effectiveness of my tasks. Being that I use the Adobe program at a high rate, I would like to see this changed.

Show font weights as previous versions
If you go Edit and click on some type Acrobat tells you the font. The problem is that it just gives the font name. If a font is in medium, book or something like that it will not tell you that information, it will only give you the main font name. So if some type is in Baskerville Book it will only tell you that it is in Baskerville.
…This did not happen in earlier versions like Acrobat X Pro (10.1.16) for example. This version of Acrobat tells you the exact font and its weight, so it would say it1 vote -

Add support for the Data URL scheme
Currently, embedded links which use the Data URL schema are blocked by Adobe Acrobat even when adjusting security settings. Adobe Acrobat doesn't need to support reading these links as they're simply opened in a browser, but we need Acrobat to stop blocking these links. I've attached an example PDF with an embedded data url.

It is essential for the user to be able to disable the default view settings that were set by the creator of the document (often stupidly).
It is essential for the user to be able to disable the default view settings that were set by the creator of the document (often stupidly).
In 35+ years of using computer software, this is the dumbest default setting I have ever seen, and it creates serious usability issues for those wishing to use Acrobat for business purposes (i.e. not graphic design/web design/desktop publishing/etc)
Please IMMEDIATELY ASAP fix this so that the user can disable these default settings and thus view documents effectively instead of spending loads of time fixing display *****-ups caused by the content creator's clumsy use of…

Copying pdf breaks formatting
When copying anything from a pdf file to Microsoft Word or other text editors, the formatting is always messed up in many places, like double or missing spaces between words or missing line breaks.
It would be much better if the formatting would be kept the same. This only happens when copying from a pdf, no other program/app does this on any other device.1 vote -

Multiple tab (session) opening
I want to upvote "Reopen PDFs Launched in previous sessions on Opening Acrobat/Reader".
Although you implemented reopen pdfs from last session, it would be INCREDIBLY useful to be able to save sessions. e.g. 5 specific pdfs regarding research on wastewater management could be saved as a session and 10 different pdfs (or some of the previous 5) as a session regarding Mn removal from water with an option to recall whichever I need when opening Acrobat. That would speed up a lot of people's workflow, especially those who have to jump through multiple topics with various materials.1 vote -
Allow clipboard Copy operation on PDF files protected for editing by password
Currently, you cannot copy text from a PDF file that's been protected for editing by a password.
To me this doesn't make sense. Copying text out of a PDF file isn't an operation that's altering the PDF file's content.
I receive bank account statements as PDF files protected for editing (which is a legal necessity). ... In order to create my balance, though, I need to copy the valuta data from the PDF to, for instance, a Microsoft Excel worksheet. Currently this is not possible.
So, I'd like to suggest to allow clipboard copy operations without first unlocking PDF files…
