2. "Edit any PDF"

   Please stop sending out emails that say it is quick and easy to edit a PDF without qualifying what is possible and what the consequences are. I have several clients who now think it is possible to edit PDFs, but the reality is that it is NOT possible to do so professionally.

   The end result of clients editing PDFs is that version control is lost from the original files that generated the PDF, artwork needs to be recreated to match the edited PDF and because there appears to be no way of tracking what the client has changed, the clients then need to re-proof the entire document. The clients are also unable to make any form of accurate edits as they don't generally have the correct fonts available.

   Edited PDFs are unsuitable/unreliable for sending to a printer for offset printing. You are unable to edit a PDF without spacing and alignments getting messed up and you simply do not have enough control to maintain anything other then the most basic layout.

   It is reckless, unprofessional and incredibly frustrating that you continue to send emails out encouraging people to edit PDFs. It is costing people a lot of time and incurring unnecessary costs to fix files when someone edits a PDF.

   Until you have the technology to make this feasible could you please stop claiming that editing PDFs is a good idea, or to be encouraged.

   it is NEVER a good idea to edit a PDF. A PDF is simply a format for delivering the final document. It should never be treated as a live file to be worked on.

3. Bug: missing font styles in Acrobat DC for Mac

   When editing a PDF, I can't select some font styles (e.g. "Futura Condensed" is not available in dropdown).
   There was no problem with Acrobat XI.

   Adobe Acrobat DC (2017.009.20044 / French language)
   macOS Sierra 10.12.5

4. Random missing letters appearing when editing and saving over a PDF

   I cannot upload as the information is sensitive but there seems to be a programme glitch when you are editing and then saving over PDFs. I have just attached a screen shot instead. It happens maybe 8/10 times but when you are editing the text on PDFs random missing letters appear. It seems the only way to get around this is by copying and pasting the letters back in place and this doesn't even always work. The PDFs were originally designed in Indesign and saved out as PDFs as templates to be edited afterwards. I have called Adobe many times and the issue is still occurring months later. I have tried re-creating the indesign files, I have tried changing the font, I have tried un-installing and then reinstalling, I have tried many other computers and this issue is still happening. It is a terrible problem and is happening to all of my colleagues. This needs to be fixed immediately as I have spent so much time on this bug already. It is extremely frustrating.

5. It would be of great help adding a "Technical Drawing Border" in Tools

   When I make a technical drawing and save it on PDF I usually go to tools and add a rectangle as a basic border. It would be great and very helpful having an option for adding a technical drawing border instead of a simple rectangle (see attached sample)/

7. text flow to next page

   Why are text edits confined to the current page? The capability to drag a text block to another page is a must-have. Ability to have text flow to the next page is much needed.

8. I'd like to be able to copy/paste text from one PDF into another one and have the tagging structure follow it.

   It would be nice if the tagging structure followed text that is copied/pasted and/or exported/imported from one PDF into another one.

   thanks,

9. Spell Checker

   A fully functional spell checker is necessary for Acrobat DC (17.009).

   Frequently I get documents requiring proof-reading and the only option is to export as a DOCX, run a spell checker there and, for every error, go back to DC and either comment the error or correct it myself. Not ideal, to say the least.

   Such functionality would also provide useful features. For example, to check French text has the correct accents or, even, being able to "translate" from US English to British English

10. Selectively Flatten Watermarks

    When adding a watermark to a .pdf file in Acrobat 10, such as "For Draft Review", it would be nice to prevent another Acrobat user from removing the watermark while retaining the ability to still have operable links, such as the Table of Contents or figure references.

12. Bulk Changing of Font Color in Acrobat Pro XI and DC

    As also expressed in a bug report related to the changing of font colors within a PDF file, I would like to see Acrobat Pro XI and DC have the ability to change the font color of all pages - or a specified range of pages - within a given document, in one pass. Right now this process must be laboriously applied, one page at a time.

    This feature would be analogous to the Crop Tool, for instance, which does provide the ability to apply itself to all or to a range of pages within the specified file.

13. Adding White Space via the Crop Tool Does Not Work for Some Pages

    Here is a posting I recently made to the Acrobat "Editing and Exporting PDFs" forum:

    try67 wrote: "Yes, Acrobat Pro DC can scale all the pages of the file in a single command."

    As it turns out, Acrobat Pro XI is supposed to be able to do this, but as I stated offline to try76, "... I experimented with increasing the white space around pages (to 8.5 x 11.0) in XI. The single-column test page I sent you is from a 9-page, mostly three-column document, and when I use the Cropping Tool while attempting to do this, there is one lone (3-column) page that refuses to re-size - whether I try to do it individually or on the whole document...."

    All of these pages came from exactly the same source (i.e., a single .TIF scan series, followed by export via ABBYY FineReader Pro 14), so there should be no differences in them - yet Acrobat fails to perform. AFAIK, this is yet another bug, rather than some peculiarity injust that one page.

    In the meantime, this same putative "cropping" feature (cough!) in Acrobat Pro XI should be able to process the desired range of pages within the 200-page (4.25 w x 7.0 h) file that I mentioned in my initial forum posting on this subject (above), but when I try it, any number of pages, scattered throughout the document, do not respond to the command.

    I already own a full license for ABBYY FineReader 14, which is fully capable of exporting documents having whatever standard or custom page size I choose., but it is somewhat of a PITA having to drag a file like this into FineReader. This risks destruction of front- and back-matter page numbering that was painstakingly created within Acrobat - after which I then have to drag it back into Acrobat for clean-up of the page-numbering mess.

15. Remove just one header/footer and not others/remove all headers/footers

    It would be nice to have the ability to remove just one footer instead of removing all headers/footers. For example, I work on large publications and would like to be able to leave the different headers and copyright footers for each chapter in place, but be able to update the page numbers. Currently, when I remove or update a header/footer, it effects ALL headers/footers. There should be a menu option to pick and choose which headers/footers to alter.

16. 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.

18. Improve the Bates Numbering

    Currently the Bates Numbering option does not allow the user to select folder and subfolders to the window for incorporating Bates Numbering. Users currently have to separate the subfolders onto the desktop and then add each folder separately to the list, once all the folders are added, the functionality can then be operated. However, most of the time users have up to 500 subfolders, so its essential that the subfolders are numbered to that the Bates numbering follows numerically correctly. There are other products that can already do this, so why cant Adobe
