  2. When I look at multi-page PDF file, especially if it is a large page size, Reader gets hopelessly lost recalculating how to scroll. If you zoom in, the page scrollers stay locked at the pre-zoomed size, so that if you are moving around you will move the next page instead of being able to see all of the zoomed in view. It's also way too easy to slip to the next page when scrolling around a view, regardless of zoom level. The primary action of hand tool mouse movements should be to move the view around, not flip pages.

    Thank you for reporting this to us. We shall have this shared with our engineering.
    Thank you for the patience

  3. Why can't i talk to an expert about the issues I'm having? All the tutorials are much too basic and scrolling through all the reams of posts is exhausting and never results in an answer. I need advice on how to save a pdf. file with radio buttons and fillable sections so i can send it to a client for completion. Why is there no detailed best practice on how to use pre-flight so that forms work for your clients?

  4. When using Acrobat Pro DC (Win 10) on a smaller screen (or lower resolution) and accessing a larger dialog box that displays a vertical scroll bar on the right (one example would be the General category dialog box under Edit|Preferences) the mouse scroll wheel has no affect and does not scroll the dialog box. The manual scroll bar does still work, but still annoying that the scroll wheel does not in these situations.

  5. When working in CAD / DTP programs in Windows, almost all use scroll wheel also as panning tool (hand) when wheel is pressed down. As page manipulation is one of basic actions when viewing maps, plans etc. in Acrobat, it is very annoying that Acrobat acts differently as other programs.

  6. I edit PDF documents and need to look consistently at different sections of each page at a time. Currently, I need to just look at the bottom section of each page, while zoomed in. If I go to navigate to the next page, the view automatically goes to the top of the next page which necessitates me scrolling down each time. I'd love functionality where you can navigate to the next page and you'd be "anchored" at the bottom of the page rather than the top. Thanks! : )

  7. In the past hour, Acrobat has frozen and stopped responding 10 times from basic usage such as scrolling and marking the PDF with the draw tool. This has been a recurring issue for quite some time now and the new update has exacerbated this. This is making my job take far longer than it should and is simply unacceptable from a well established and widely used format such as PDF. Focus on stability instead of updates that put more bloatware in your program.

  8. When DC Pro is set to single page display (scrolling is easier/more precise) ctrl+a only selects the current page

    Adobe say this is not a bug, but I believe it is because ctrl+a should select all, not just the page being viewed

    As this basic functionality is altered by a simple setting it is a bug

    So they suggested making a feature request

    Please make DC Pro select all (not just the current page) when the select all shortcut is used while in single page mode

    If you have software that you love and that works, that is responsive, and that is stable, please stop using it. We have something fantastic for you!

    Attached you find the file with the Error.

    Environment: macOS 11.4, Adobe Acrobat Pro DC V 2021.005.20058.

  12. Please allow resizing/expansion of the side panel used for formatting and tab order, etc. There is a horizontal scroll bar on the bottom, but if you have longer field names, it is inconvenient to have to scroll back and forth. For those with wider monitors, this should be expandable horizontally or a pop-out window that is expandable.

  13. In advanced search, there is a "Sort by" feature for sorting by filename. Unfortunately, Adobe PDF's that are produced with Adobe's web conversion utility do not allow for editing of the filename.

    I have saved over 100 documents with Adobe's web conversion utility, adding the date to the beginning of the filename when saving the file.

    When I try to use this advanced search sort setting, the documents saved with Adobe's utility do not show up in the bookmarks section with the filename I gave them, defaulting instead to Adobe's title that the program assigns the file.

    I know how…

  14. Acrobat Pro DC Bug (version 21.007 using Windows 10)

    This is a new bug, so suggests it relates to a recent update.

    When Splitting a PDF file via Top Level Bookmark.
    You receive the following error message (see screenshot).

    "The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different file name or in a different folder".

    Trying either of the above suggestions will not work and you continue to receive the same error message when attempting to split the file.

    The only way to get around this, is to manually select…

  15. I often compare one PDF to another, and the prev version will have lots of comments to make sure I address. To help myself keep track of where I've made it to as I go, I collapse the page's comment list as I complete a page. I really wish there was a small collapse bar with an up arrow/caret at the bottom of each page's comments list, since when I read the last comment about a page, I've scrolled quite a bit in the comments bar and have to scroll up again to collapse the page's list from the top.…

  16. In versions before Acrobat Pro DC you could scroll through advanced search results with the down arrow. Now you must select and click on the entry, a HUGE time waster and annoying step backward in Acrobat's functionality.

  17. When printing an Excel workbook, if any of the tabs have "autofit" turned on, or a Shrink to Fit percentage, the output PDF has different size pages, rather than being shrunk to fit.

    For example, print a simple workbook tab with 90% scaling on 8.5x11 paper, and the PDF created measures 9.44x12.22 inches. It should be 8.5x11 inches.

    This causes strange behavior during continuous scrolling, as the user expects to see the same size page boundary (A4/Letter) and they are all different. Other non-Adobe PDF software does not do this.

  18. function bookmrk.GetByTitle stoped working as it should. It worked properly early. We tried to reinstall then Acrobat, but it didn't help.
    Windows 7. Acrobat Pro DC 2021.007.20102
    Error in the following VBScript:

    Set MainPartDocument = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
    MainPartDocument.Open("C:\1\1.pdf")
    Set bookmrk = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDBookmark")
    'on the next line function returns False, although the "bookmark" exists in the file. GetByTitle actually can't get the bookmark.
    res = bookmrk.GetByTitle(MainPartDocument, "bookmark")
    msgbox res

    msgbox "bookmrk exists " & bookmrk.GetTitle

    It looks like a bug. The problem was solved by installing Acrobat Reader on the PC additionally to Acrobat Pro. We noticed,…

  19. I need to be able to add a file name (or a bookmark name) to the header or footer. It seems there might be third party add-ins out there, but I would think it would be something Adobe could do.

  20. Return the removed bookmark tree structure with lines which showed the parent child relationships. The current arrow / indent paradigm is very poor to unusable for large documents with many sections/sub-sections. This was a giant step backwards in UI design.
