  1. Would be nice to be able to highlight words, sentences, or sections while in read mode. Give it a more realistic feel and allow you to read and mark important sections.

  2. When specifying a date field in a form there is just about every date format available except dd/mm/yyyy - it has to be added as a custom format each time. This is commonly how dates are written in Australia/NZ, would be very handy to have this in the list.

  3. When I go to add multiple pages to my PDF, the same page is inserted multiple times, rather than the different pages I have selected.

  5. After typing in a PDF, the highlight feature, which pops up automatically when one selects text, stops working. One must select 'edit' and then 'document' to turn it back on. This is wasted effort and time when one does a lot of highlighting - quite common when reading scientific papers

  6. When rotating a single page in a multi-page document, the document will jump back a number of pages, requiring me to scroll back to the page I just rotated. This happens about 80% of the time that I rotate a page with no observable action that causes the jump.

  7. In the new Adobe Acrobat App for Win 11 it is not possible for me to sign a document by adding a signiture. I have already 2 signitures and tried to replace one with another by clicking the x to remove one. x does not work and I couldnt figure out how to add/change/remove a signiture.

  8. Splitting files. When splitting files you can no longer use a number pad, it types out in alpha. It also always reverts to 2.

  9. For Creative Cloud subscribers, why isn't there a feature to "Edit in Illustrator (or Photoshop)" in Acrobat?

    My PDF download preferences are set to open in Acrobat (browser and email) and as a designer, I often need to edit the PDFs I receive in Illustrator.

    I know Acrobat has a feature to edit PDFs but it is inferior (and laggy) compared to Illustrator.

    It would be helpful to have such a feature available to CC subscribers.

  10. need an option to highlight the entire pdf when preparing a form to change features like read only and lock it. either give an option to highlight the entire form or by page (where the field box is on the right side) that way we can edit properties faster and conveniently.

  11. When I select Edit PDF and Add Text, text boxes automatically generate in a way that make no sense. (This happened with a scanned pdf form with text boxes.) In addition, the cursor will not allow me to add text outside the automated text box that Adobe generated. First off, auto generated text boxes should line up with existing boxes on a form (regardless of being a scanned copy). Second, Add Text shouldn't be restricted to autogenerated text boxes. I am using Adobe Pro Version 2023.006.20320 on a Windows 11 computer. See screen shot.

    The only work around I see…

  12. Ever since the last update, when I change the output options for splitting pages they seem to be ignored. I like to split into 1 page, with NO label and NO separator. Even when I uncheck the boxes for these things the files are still labeled with PART and _. I have also deleted these from the prefilled boxes and they still show up. This costs me extra time since I have to alter the file names of each page to delete the label and separator.

    It'd also be nice to have defaults like there used to be- now it…

  13. The pallet of colours for the highlight could be floated on the screen I was able to paste a highlight in any colour and then change it.
    Now changing the highlight colour is a slow process of opening the colour menu every time.

  14. When opening a pdf that is already in use by another user, please provide a message box to notify the user the file will be opened in read only because someone already has opened the file.

  15. Currently under the 'JavaScript' menu, you can execute a piece of java code within a document on a specific document action.

    The current options are as below:
    Document Will Close
    Document Will Save
    Document Will Print
    Document Did Save
    Document Did Print

    Our company of 1800+ would like the option for this to also be applicable at an application level.
    The intention is for every document saved to execute a piece of java code and not just the individual document.
    One use-case is for a liability disclaimer to be applied to all documents without the need for manual intervention.

  17. Adobe recently auto-updated as of 8/23/23. I generally need to edit PDFs by adding text, then occasionally adding an image. I add the needed text as normal, but when I insert an image, it allows me to select the image from My Computer as normal, and then nothing happens. There is no error message, the dialog box for image selection simply disappears.

    If I close the PDF and re-open it, and go straight to adding an image first, it loads into the PDF and I can place/resize/move it as usual with no issue.

  18. When I edit a document to fill in boxes, I repetitively have to work through an exemption processing error for every key stroke. I don't know how to get past this except to use an older version.

  19. I want to be able to remove the actions in the actions list that are available out of the box. I never, ever use them and I want the ones I use all the time to be the only ones available.

  20. The previously versions of Adobe Acrobat Pro had a function to group two or more objects, when opening a pdf-document and choose the app: Edit.
    Grouped objects could then also be ungrouped.

    I have spent at 1 hour to search for this function in the program as well in the Adobe help files and on the internet.

    Please add this function again. It is very useful when working in documents having multiple objects.
