New version is not a sustainable option for Construction Industry
I work in the construction industry and use the edit and search features on a daily basis. Typically, I am adding text, using E-Sign, combining files, and exporting to excel.
The new version of Adobe Acrobat is nothing short of a headache:
- Auto-recognizes text boxes that are not there
- Will divide pages into a grid for no reason
- Will recognize text as an image
- No longer recognizes text with ease
- You cannot add a textbox to an area on the page where a "text box" is auto-recognized (when there actually isn't one there)
- Can no longer move or resize text boxes
- Cannot rearrange pages
- Exporting to Excel has become absolutely comical, adding addition columns and rows, cutting off text, adding ridiculous formatting, etc.
The updated version is absolutely deplorable.
Should there be a mandatory upgrade to the latest version, I will be advising my employer to move over to similar software and to stop using Adobe. What used to take me 10 minutes now takes me nearly 45 minutes. So disappointing. I will continue to use the older version for the time being, but this latest update has left a sour taste.
