Acrobat Pro arbitrarily changes form field types after crash
First my suggestion for Acrobat Pro is work more painstakingly or stock up staff! The CC costs a bunch of money and when working with it, it shows that it doesn't function as sufficient as is should. Especially when it comes to creating/editing more advanced interactive PDFs with Acrobat Pro. The possibility to do that basically is a very mighty and good feature but it doesn't runs as stable as it should.
In my opinion there could/should be a standalone software thats reduced to interactive/form field and layout functions (comparable: InDesign) only. Acrobat Pro is packed full with lots of…

Missing sign in force closes an unsaved pdf form!
I have several computers I'm using Creative Cloud on. I can't keep up which is signed in and out. I work a lot with pdf forms. What happens is I'm filling an important form and suddenly Acrobat DC just quits without any warning, not asking whether to save. All work is completely lost and not retrievable! Then I can normally do the sign out from other computers and sign in the current computer (with my Adobe ID), but it's too late, the work is already lost.
It's a terrible problem and should be fixed immediately.
If the user has an…
1 voteThanks for your feedback. We are looking into this. Meanwhile could you please let us know whether Acrobat which is not signed in quits immediately after launch or after a while. If it quits after a while, could you please let us know the time period say 1 minute or 5 minutes or more which Acrobat takes to quit on launch.

Adobe Acrobat and Reader 2015
For enterprise use, it has too many breadcrumbs to learn more and free downloads. For business use and confidentiality, these links need to be easily removed or hidden from view with the customization tool.
1 voteThanks for bringing this issue to our notice. Your valuable feedback helps us improving our product. We discussed about this particular issue and we do not have any plans to work on it in immediate future. However, we’ll have it in our radar and might revisit at an appropriate time in future.

Bug - MacOS 10.12.5 (Named) installer as Unidentified Developer
I've created an Acrobat Pro for Named installer (Via Admin Console) for the MacOS 10.12.5. Downloaded and ran the installer. The OS terminated the installer because it was an "Unidentified Developer".
I was able to install it after going to System Preferences > Security & Privacy and check OK to install.
The reason I state this issue is most end users will not know what to do. So this needs to be corrected (maybe Apple.com).

Batch processing to Actions in Acrobat DC HOW?!?!?
Can you provide a "plain English" description on how to create a "batch processing" type Action that can be use on multiple files at once? I have hundreds of files that I need to set open options on and add specific bookmarks to. Trying to do this one at a time is NOT happening. Urgent please!

Distiller: moveto the currentpoint results in a continuation of current sub-path, not a new sub-path
In Distiller XI Pro 11.0.20 (28.03.2017), distill the following:
%!PS
/StrokeCode {1 setlinejoin gsave 0 setlinecap 24 setlinewidth 0 setgray stroke grestore 1 setlinecap 9.6 setlinewidth 1 setgray stroke} def
144 72 moveto 144 144 2 copy 72 144 curveto
72 144 moveto 144 144 2 copy 144 72 curveto
StrokeCode
showpageThe moveto should start a new sub-path; display of that point should be determined by setlinecap not by setlinejoin. Alas, Distiller causes it to be determined by setlinejoin.

Replace the word emit with omit.
In advanced printer settings, when selecting a color to exclude from printing (tiny printer icons next to cyan, magenta, yellow, and black color blocks), please change the word emit with omit. Very different meanings.

Direct ink feature available in student/teacher version of adobe acrobat pro dc
I had been using the trial version for Adobe acrobat pro dc and really liked the feature where when i was using the program on my surface pro it automatically detected that i was using the microsoft pen and i could just write on the pdf's. I purchased the student version of the program and when i went to do the same thing and it did not work. I contacted your customer service and the person said the feature was not available on the version i purchased and that i would have to buy a subscription to get that feature.…

Bug with % symbols in named destinations
When entering a named destination (for linking to within a PDF), it's impossible to enter a percentage sign ("%", U+0025). The symbol simply disappears from the name once entered.
It's possible it's being misinterpreted as a formatting specifier in a printf call (or something similar).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a document and select "Edit PDF"
2. Click the bullseye-icon in the left-most pane ("Destinations")
3. Click "Create New Destination"
4. Type "Bug%Test" and press Enter
5. Note the result is "BugTest" instead of the expected "Bug%Test"Here's an animated screen-capture (which was too large to upload as an attachment): …

Bug report: unable to cancel out of changing/replacing watermark if you accidently choose watermark on a document that already has one.
Currently if you accidentally choose to add a watermark on a document that already has one, there is no way to cancel it. You have to either go through the settings and replace it with what is already there or choose a new one. This has happened several times and the only way to get out of it is to end task on Adobe.

"Print as Handouts" feature
A "Print as Handouts" feature similar to the 2x6 feature in Microsoft PowerPoint. It is common for lecture slides to be released as single slide per page pdf documents, rather than the original PPT file. Because of this, you can only choose to print a number of pages per page (slides per page) in Adobe Acrobat but there is no option, like in powerpoint, for handouts (that is, have 3 slides/pages on the left side of a sheet and 3 boxes to the right that are blank with ruled lines on it for taking notes).
