  1. How TF can you not allow undo ANYWHERE in ANY application! The year is 2020! Why are computers great? Many reasons. One of the biggest? UNDO.

    WHY CAN I NOT UNDO WHEN I MAKE A MISTAKE FILLING A DOC IN FILL + SIGN MODE, WHEN I'M THE CREATOR OF THE DOCUMENT?! Every time I try to use Adobe's half-assed software (Premiere [the worst of all], Audition, Acrobat), I want to pull my f&*%ing hair out because you fools either altogether left out a VERY common and important feature, or you included a broken version of it! And when I say…

  2. Please make commenting fonts lockable so that when you share a PDF, someone else can see your comments in a specific font. The default font (Segoe) is not great for in-depth text editing, as some characters, like curly quote marks and apostrophes, are not as easily distinguishable from their straight counterparts as they would be in serif fonts.

  3. When I set Acrobat to run a task like text recognition for example, I don't want to sit there and watch the program do that. So I go to do something else on my computer. But Acrobat, and other Adobe programs continually push themselves to the foreground forcing me to wait while a task finishes. Why?

  4. Build lists of all document data that failed to convert into a signed agreement.

    This data can be used for marketing purposes. If we send out an agreement for a signature and it never came back signed, then that lead failed to convert into a new customer. If we could take that captured data and convert it into an Excel file, then we could re-target and continue to market those leads from that list.

  5. I've spent most of a week adding text to this pdf and saving it to my hard drive. Today when I opened it, all of the additions were corrupted or missing! Unless there is a trick to recovering this document, I've lost a week of work!!

    The information is sensitive so it is not possible to attach the file.

  6. Please provide a simple user web site option which explains the differences between the multiple product you provide. I needed Adobe DC but was unaware that there were two version of Adobe. Your web site indicated that I needed Adobe Pro DC to complete an Adobe form sent from my bank. This has caused all sorts of issues as when I discovered that Adobe DC was the product I needed, not a simple task, the process of cancelling the erroneous subscription generated a chat session which I thoughT I had completed and fully cancelled the trail subscription. I also received…

  7. We are continually getting issues with compliance and the Adobe PDF Checker is not being stringent enough. We have created PDFs that are given a clear bill of health using the Adobe checker but our web team use the PAC3 app to verify and they fail on many levels. We would like Adobe to improve the checker to a similar standard so it then complies with legislation for public service bodies in the United Kingdom. Also, as we use Macs most other checkers are PC only so a level playing field would be immensely helpful. Thanks.

  9. I need to fill and sign a pdf for a process that involves many people. They have to fill and sign a part of the pdf by each step. So i need to block only the step that is signed by the responsible.

  10. If I receive a protected document, I want to pw the doc if it contains sensitive info, or change the pw to our standard, but cannot due to existing permission pw.
    eg., I receive sensitive Docusign doc that is pw protected against amendment. I want to pw protect to open before I email externally. But I cannot do so because I don't have permission pw. Thx!

  12. Please consider updating the pricing, trial and cancellation policy for your product subscriptions. Your monthly subscription fees are way too expensive for individual customers, with one exception - your photography plan. Your photography plan is a great value. Why can't your other plans be like that?

    Also, who can remember to cancel within 7 days? When you start charging monthly fees for a yearly plan so quickly, and then charge a ridiculous amount (50%!) for your cancellation fee, it makes me feel like you couldn't care less about your customers - you just want to make a buck. Is that…

  15. Remove the auto page launch after the installation / activation / updating of the Adobe Acrobat Chrome Extension. Or provide a group policy to disable it.
    The problem is on Citrix or none persistent VDIs were the users get always a fresh user profile. Users see then on first browser launch the Adobe page instead of our company Portal.
    The old Adobe Reader extension had this feature but not the new one.

  16. I am using Acrobat pro DC on my Wacom tablet to comment on certain PDFs. Most of the time it works rather well, but now, more than ever, it is just crashing out of the blue. I have a maximum amount of two files open at the same time, and while I am commenting on the file, acrobat becomes shorty unresponsive and then crashes without warning.

    I am on the latest version of Windows 10, using the latest version of Acrobat Pro DC and I am using the CIntiq 13HD.

  17. Environment:

    Windows 10
    InDesign 15.0.3
    Acrobat Pro DC 20.0

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Create a new Document in InDesign
    2. Add a text frame and filler text
    3. Export PDF No. 1

    4. Add a soft return / forced line break somewhere in the filler text (e.g. between "evendae." and "Et", line 5)

    5. Export PDF No. 2

    6. Compare PDF No. 1 and PDF No. 2 in Acrobat Pro (compare everything, not "text only")

    Expected result

    The soft return should be recognized as a change.

    Observed result

    The soft return is not recognized as a change in the comparison, despite impacting the text flow significantly.

    1. Create a new Document in InDesign

    3. Export PDF No. 1

    4. Add a soft hyphen somewhere in the filler text

    5. Export PDF No. 2

    6. Compare PDF No. 1 and PDF No. 2 in Acrobat Pro (compare everything, not "text only")

    Expected result

    Soft hyphen should either be
    a) ignored in comparison

    or better

    b) displayed as one of several commonly used glyphs, e.g. the not-sign "¬"

    Observed result

    The soft hyphen is displayed as a single space that was added in the…

  19. I'm trying to OCR photos of text on a PC screen. I'd think OCR would do a much better job if I could give it hints, such as:

    • the text to recognize is in a monospaced font (now, it tries to use a font with variable character widths, frequently leading to words with spaces in the middle of them)

    • the text to recognize has regular line spacing

    Also, it would do much better if I could tell it:

    • proceed line by line; don't jump all over the place. OCR sometime reorders the content of tables in strange ways.

    Attached is…
