  2. Please add functionality so when I drag a box on the screen it gives the option to select the comments. Ideally selection box one way, crossing box the other way - if Autodesk has a patent on that or something then please license it from them.

    Thanks!

  4. Every time I draw a text callout box, it automatically deletes itself.

    The only way I can add one to a file is by copying it from a different PDF.

  5. Stop telling me every scanned document is editable and posting a 'Start Now' button. If I want to edit it I will go to the menu feature that says 'Edit'. I don't need suggestions every time taking up space on my screen I need to see the document.
    Thanks.

  6. Please allow to calibrate a measurement with the drawing.
    I usually get drawings completely off-scale and the only way of getting a correct scale is trial and error changing values within "Change Scale Ratio and Precision" box.

    We could:
    Select option "Calibrate measurement", draw line in the drawing over known distance, enter the length the line represents.
    This will allow to calculate the scale and set it up with usually acceptable tolerance (definitely better than trial and error)...

  7. I can't find "add text comment" (without a border) tool in August 2023 Acrobat.

    When I choose another similar sounding tool called "insert text comment" and clicking on a newly-created blank page, nothing happens. (I don't know what this for in either old or new version. It may have something to do with cursor?)

    Workaround is to use "add text comment" (with a border), change properties to always have no border displayed and resize the border after typing.

    The old version behavior of "add text comment" appeared to add text at position clicked on a page and then flowed right…

  8. Can we please have the autosave function back?
    It is unfortunate that the Autosave feature is no longer available in the latest update of Adobe Acrobat Pro. We need to click 'Post' each time we even start writing a comment using annotations. The total time to annotate a PDF is now longer because of this update, which affects productivity. You may even loose your work if you forget to save each time you type any text using an annotation tool (sticky notes, comment feature).

  9. When I open my shared PDF, it says 'Loading Shared Comments' forever. I know for a fact that there are no more than four comments in this PDF but I can't access them.

  10. I would love to be able to customize the pop-up that appears when I select text. At present, it offers editing tools, but I don't use those. I use the markup tools, so in addition to the highlight tool I would love to have the "insert text" and "replace text" (or whatever they're now called) there, plus the call-out box. Possibly one or two other tools I use a lot.

    This would save me a lot of time as I would not have to mouse over to the toolbar, even though I've added the tools I use most often. Especially…

  11. When I want to replace text, I right click on text and select "Add Note to Replace Text". Then I start typing. But the first few characters of what I type are always missing from the note that is generated. Please fix this lag.

  12. When working with a document in different devices (in my case Android and windows PC devices), the default color palettes for commenting are different. They should be similar to ensure the colors are the same across any device.

  14. It would be great to be able to batch edit comments in the Comments pane. For example, to use the Search function and find all comments with something like a common spelling error or incorrect text, then use a Find and Replace function across all the found comments to replace the text with new text.

  15. I use the comments a lot. With this new update, you can't use [space bar] to grab and scroll in the comments section, like you can do in the section on the left where your document is.

    And the arrows don't work well either, because if you use them in the long list of comments, they jump further in a way you get lost!

    If the scroll bar wasn't hidden and a bit wider in the comments section, this would solve this problem partially. Using [space] to grab and navigate would be best. I think it was like that before...

  16. This is not an idea. It is a problem with your newest version of Acrobat Pro (version 20360). The auto speller does not work in when typing a comment. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app several times with no success. I have also spent more than an hour on a remote session with tech support. After all of that, the tech checked his system and confirmed that the speller does not work on his system as well. Let's hope this issue is resolved ASAP (I can't imagine that your developers are not aware of this already . . .)

  17. Steps to duplicate:
    Chooses Draw freehand from the toolbar.
    Click and draw freehand writing by drawing numbers, dashes and ABCs in between with clicking and unclicking creating non-continuous lines making up the characters.
    Notice that sometimes a Pop-up appears beneath where I am trying to continue for Add note & Delete.

    Workaround:
    Wait a few seconds for Add note & Delete pop-up to disappear, or start drawing in a location without the pop-up. (Or revert to old Acrobat experience by choosing Disable new Acrobat from the Menu.)

  19. Adobe needs to create a functionality that distinguishes highlights from comments. I have a long PDF with several thousand highlights, and it's nearly impossible to find my comments (which is the point of adding them) because you can't filter solely for comments when they're attached to highlights. if Kindle can do it, so can Adobe! Please add this feature; it is long overdue and makes operating within PDF so tedious.

  20. Not sure if this has to do with an update, but I can't seem to undo after I deleted a comment, where I was always able to.
