  1. I had the opportunity to use digital services during a campaign to support the rights of people from vulnerable groups. At the time, I was involved in a case involving the unfair dismissal of an acquaintance, and we were seeking a platform where we could collaborate and attract media attention. On the website https://freedomforallamericans.org/tech-solutions-human-rights-campaigns/, I came across a selection of solutions that help coordinate actions and quickly disseminate information. There, I found a service that makes it easy to collect signatures and send them to the authorities. It seemed like a simple form, but when we saw dozens of…

  3. We have switched our email software to Outlook New. Since then, the Send function in Adobe no longer works. Previously, we could simply click on the envelope icon, select “Send by Email”, and a new email would open with the PDF attached.

    Currently, it is not possible to set Outlook New as the default email program. Adobe does not recognize it as an email application and shows the message that no email program is installed.

    This issue causes us significantly more manual work, as we now have to save documents separately and attach them manually to emails.

    We kindly ask…

  4. When switching language while acrobat reader is the active window(alt-shift shortcut) the application freezes - happens on every PC - I've tried with Cyrillic alphabet, not sure if it's the same for all alphabets.

  5. The Convert Webpage to PDF, and Add Webpage PDF functions were completely destroyed by Adobe about 9 months ago.  I requested fixes a couple of times and eventually Adobe restored these to much better functionality about a month ago.  I responded that the functions were now good.

    BUT I have since found that once the PDF is created from a webpage, there is no text recognition within the PDF.  When I try to use the OCR recognition function, it responds "could not perform recognition because this page contains renderable text".  

    The consequence of this is that highlighting of individual words…

  6. It would get a great idea to actually make Fill & Sign work. After 12 versions and years of offering this tool, how great would it be if it actually worked in a bug-free and intuitive manner. Just upgraded from 11 and tried to fill a form. When you hover over an entry field, it seems to find the location of text entry and puts in "Type Text Here." Sometimes you can type text in the entry field. Sometimes you can enlarge or make smaller the text. Sometimes you can go back and edit the text. Sometimes it just puts…

  7. Why, why can't I do this. It takes me absolutely forever to do PDF accessibility and testing. I can only use one input device at a time, and this makes testing extremely cumbersome.

  8. Using latest MS Word and latest Acrobat DC on latest MS Windows.
    Creating PDF from docx file, turned off all accessibility features in Word and Acrobat. Settings maximised for best quality.
    Since last week, the export is rendering some fonts as Black in the PDF, whereas in Word they are Navy blue, or white with navy background.
    Rebooted, installed updates, tried other colour combinations, checked all Word and Adobe settings for accessibility. I have opened the PDF in other viewers and the problem persists. Images are all fine, it's just the font colour which changed.
    This was working ok one…

  9. The current OCR engine in Adobe Acrobat is outdated and often fails to recognize text accurately, especially with complex layouts or low-quality scans.
    Please consider integrating a modern AI-based OCR engine, similar to Google Cloud Vision or ABBYY FineReader, to significantly improve recognition accuracy and multi-language support.

    The advancement of AI-based OCR is especially critical for users in non-English regions or those working with complex scripts. The current engine’s accuracy drops significantly for non-alphabetic languages, which directly impacts both operational efficiency and fairness.
    Many users would greatly benefit from more robust, AI-powered text extraction.

  10. Adobe bug reporting wouldn’t allow me to post images and files. All are at
    Cross link to similar report at https://github.com/jdaw1/placemat/issues/171

    Consider the PDF placemats. Observe lots of complicated clipping. This was printed successfully from Adobe inside Chrome, but unsuccessfully from Adobe desktop app — major failure of clipping.

    First image is of the Sandeman circle on the first page, as correctly converted to bitmap by GraphicConverter.

    Next is as correctly printed from within Chrome version; Version 137.0.7151.120 (Official Build) (64-bit).

    Then as wrongly printed from Adobe Acrobat 2025.001.20531, 64-bit.

    In both cases, printed to a OKI C822 printer using…

  11. Images within a PDF need a lock option that would make it so that the image cannot be moved or edited unless the lock is turned off. -- Backgrounds and large images located behind text often get selected when trying to edit text, however they're necessary to have in location for reference during the editing process.

  12. There are two ways to convert XML to PDF; a manual or professional methodology. With the manual methodology, you can open the XML file with a web browser (Max or Safari) or a text editor (Notepad or Textedit), and then use the Print > Save as PDF functionality. You could also use MS Word to open the XML, format it properly, and then export it as a PDF.

    The drawback with manual conversion is that it cannot retain complex structures, styles, or any data that is embedded into the XML file; it is by no means an automated and consistent…

  15. Read aloud is malfunctioning. It will start okay, but then begin spelling words and not pausing between words. It seems that it can't change locations of reading the text with repositioning the cursor in the document. Is there a fix or update available for this?

  16. The "This appears to be a long document. Save time by reading a summary." banner is disrespectful and a disgrace. My document only had 6 pages and this popped-up. How you shove AI tools in our faces has gone beyond all dignity. Also, this banner "eats up" monitor space and therefore my document is displayed smaller than it could have been! Add an option inside preferences to prevent this banner from appearing.

  18. AI assistant doesn't recognize loaded languages. I got a scanned pdf from China, the AI couldn't process the file. I had to upload to google translate to read the file.

    Also, regular scan and ORC didn't work... but the freeware from google works.

  19. I'm looking for help for a particular feature. I don't want a ******* tutorial. The help panel is ******* useless. I want to type in the feature i need, and have options from there. Instead, you present me with this panel full of mostly irrelevant options. In particular, the crop tool should actually CROP SOMETHING. Instead, i've got a keyline with handles of some kind around the part of the page I want to crop.

  20. I am coming from Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017 and started using Adobe Acrobat Pro Continuous Release (latest and greatest?). My only real complaint is that Pro 2017 would keep the last thumbnail size and panel width when opening new documents. Our office uses Adobe to extract documents using the page thumbnail feature, and now we will have hundreds of employees having to readjust the thumbnail size/panel width for every new document. This is going to add hours of work per day on a feature that Adobe removed for... some reason? Please bring back the feature or add an option in…
