  1. When using the File Explorer to select multiple files then right clicking and choosing combine PDFs, it gives error "This feature is not included in your current Acrobat license". If you try again after acrobat opens it works. If acrobat has already been opened since a restart it works as well.

  2. The font list on Mac Os Acrobat is in the standard font- see screenshot (usually each font name is shown in its style so you understand what it looks like more or less).
    On Acrobat on Mac Os in order to see what font looks like you need to apply it to the text in the document - so you literally need to apply 100 fonts to see what they are when looking for the right one.
    In short - there is no preview samples of fonts on the list like there is on Acrobat on Windows. I had to…

  3. There needs to be a simple way to convert text to path. (The utility of this is begin able to use parts of the pdf file in illustrator without having the fonts.) Googling this shows there is demand for the feature. Currently the feature sort of exists in the "flatten transparency" settings, but it does not work correctly if there is no transparent feature in the pdf. The workaround is to add a watermark or other transparent object, THEN edit the flatten settings. Silly workaround for a common enough need. I'd call this a bug, since the flatten options clearly…

  4. It is completely mind numbing that this product doesnt work with Live Cycle Designer files. These are the PDF files that are used by the IRS. So I can not fill in a form from the IRS and save it. BUT Apple Preview works perfectly fine on these files. So my FREE PDF viewer works better than this Adobe PDF P.O.S. What a waste of a product.

  5. Since so many folks work at home with the usual 8 1/2x11 format printers, it's hard to print PDFs that are in 17x11 & 34x22 format. This includes the engineering, survey, Departments of Transportation drawings, maybe architects, and many others, like schedules and Gantt charts. We work with SCALE drawings and we'd sometimes like to print our usual landscape prints from the at-scale drawing format in 34x22 or 17x11 onto TWO 11x 8 1/2 prints, effectively splitting the drawing in two, down the middle. If we could get full-bleed, edge to edge, so much the better. This allows us to…

  7. In this age of social distancing and teleworking, having the ability to use Adobe Acrobat sharing of portfolios or PDF documents for the review and approval of organizational documents provides an additional reason for companies and organizations to use Adobe Acrobat in their everyday operations. The need is to have the ability to select the order in which a shared document or portfolio is viewed/commented by emailed addressees so that the review process can meet organizational processes/steps.

  8. After the most recent Acrobat DC update, we suddenly could not paste any text into the alt text field or the title, subject, author, and keyword fields in document properties. The cursor was there, but nothing appeared when we tried to paste. This happened when copying from any application (Word, PowerPoint, even from within the PDF itself). Oddly, we could paste into the body of the PDF, just not the alt text and document property fields. Ultimately we had to uninstall and reinstall, which seemed to fix the problem. But we have no idea what caused this malfunction in the…

  9. It would be great to have the option to append an exported PDF file name with for example "print", "proof", "_cropped" in the PDF settings.
    Clients often require a print PDF with spreads, marks and bleeds and also web versions cropped and exported at screen resolution.
    It would be great to differentiate these files automatically, especially when exporting large batches of files.
    Please also add to option to export more than one PDF when packaging files for delivery.

  10. When on-boarding new customers, it is required to receive backing data for identification purposes as part of anti-money laundering requirements. Currently, this is not allowable via the Adobe Sign service when requiring a form to have a signature. It would be extremely useful for this to be available within the financial services sector and I am sure many other service organisations. Should you require further clarity, I am more than happy to assist.

  11. A back button (while saving your changes) would be so helpful! There have been instances on a document where I forgot to add two signers and have to start completely fresh after adding all the signature spots! OR if you miss the step of adding a password at the beginning step, you have to start all over again!

  12. The doc comparison needs to be improved. It doesn't recognize that hyphenated words are in-fact the same words. I have an example but am unable to upload a screenshot.

  13. We need to be able to replace a shared document with an updated version, without sending out a fresh set of links to everyone.

    In a collaborative process, where a document is getting lots of review comments, eventually it becomes crowded and it's time to take on all the comments and republish version 2 (or 3 etc).

    Acrobat Pro DC does not allow this. We have to issue every reader with new links - this is tedious and error-prone for the document creator, and confusing for the recipients.

    I tried deleting pages and replacing them with new ones -- but…

  14. A page-wide reticle centered at the pointer location to easily read plot axes. Especially useful to digitize graph data.

    Extra feature: Click, and the reticle stays centered there, allowing one to zoom in/out to read axis for instance. Click again to free the reticle.

    Extra feature: Angle of the reticle should be customizable in the case of tilted scanned documents. Width of the reticle line as well, why not :)

  15. We get documents form a few of our clients in metric sizes. But we only print in English sizes. "Fit' or "shrink to fit" in the print screen works but it alters the sizes of the text and results in off center paragraphs and blocks of text.
    Would be nice if we could just go to a tool that would reposition the images and text to fit on standard English sizes.

    An alternate solution might be if we could reflow the text onto blank standard sheets (and resize images with handles) as needed.

  16. Adobe Acrobat Pro DC - crashes on me occasionally, despite upgrading RAM on ThinkPad to 32GB. Sometimes unsaved files will reopen, but not always. I read online that a temporary folder is created. Why does it delete itself when you close Adobe? Defeats the purpose of saving back-up file.

  17. In MS word or ppt, if you click 2 hypens -- and then a space, it turns the 2 hyphens into an em dash. In google docs, you have to select substitutions and find the right dash (it's a pain, but you can do it). In Acrobat, I want to insert an em dash and I can't see how to do it, so I'm stuck using 2 hyphens -- and it looks very unprofessional.

  18. Lightroom needs to bring back the function that allows you to organise your presets into folders. I currently have hundreds of presets from different creators and they're all jumbled up in a complete mess and I have to scroll through every single one to find the one I want. This needs to be prioritised as it's slowing down workflow for I imagine thousands of people.

  20. In Admin Console, the USERs listing includes a Products column on the right. That is a valuable bit of information.

    When I select a GROUP and then display those members, the Products column is missing.

    Please add Products to the display of users when a Group has been selected.
