2. Edit panel not opening

   Edit panel is not opening when I click edit at the top. Nothing happens. I urgently need to update a pdf and cannot. Restarting my computer did nothing.

3. Unable to Delete Objects While Editing

   As of today, I, and several other people using this program at work and on their home computers, can no longer edit objects. I believe this is a bug as I was able to do this for years up until today. I am able to select the object but unable to delete it with the delete key or right clicking and selecting delete. Nothing happens.

   The only solution I have found to delete an object is to:
   1. Go to View>Show/Hide>Navigation Panes> Content
   2. Click content icon in sidebar to open hierarchical object tree
   3. Locate page to edit, click through listed item

   Interestingly, the object I am trying to delete come through as "path" and they are deletable from the object tree.

4. Fix Editing Issues in Data-Heavy PDFs (EV Battery Reports, Logs, Tables)

   Editing structured PDFs in Acrobat is still frustrating, especially for real-world documents like EV battery reports, diagnostics, and technical logs.

   Trying to update simple things like values in tables, charging data, or performance metrics often breaks formatting, misaligns content, or requires rebuilding sections manually. For documents that are updated regularly, this becomes a constant pain.

   Acrobat should handle these use cases much better.

   Key improvements needed:

   Proper table-aware editing (not just text boxes)
   Stable formatting when updating numbers or data fields
   Easier editing of repeated report structures
   Better handling of technical layouts without breaking the document

   As more industries rely on PDFs for ongoing reports (like EV battery data), this isn’t a niche problem anymore—it’s a daily workflow issue.

   Right now, editing these kinds of PDFs feels unreliable. It should be precise and predictable.

5. AI Features

   I'm so disapointed in this roll out of AI features. It completely bogs down Acrobat. Every time I go to edit text, something very simple, it has to generate a whole new menu and even ask me if it wants it to create an image, every. single. time.

   I've disabled it multiple times and it keeps coming back. You can tell there are new things running in the background tied to the menu, help, and AI Assistant.

   Acrobat used to be one of my favorite platforms, I could just about do anything in it. Now I can barely do anything in it.

6. fix edit menu

   Editing text: pasting text onto pdf ends up with letters very widely spaced and unreadable. Prior version did not have this undesirable feature. Through trial/error, I found this could be avoided by extra step of selecting "0" on the "VA" menu button, even though it says "0" to start with. Ironically it says "0" as default, but if I do not set it to "0" again (even though the default shows "0"), "VA" now will read "14" for my copy-pasted text edit, and individual letters are so far apart as to be unreadable. It would be nice to revert to a prior version where this extra step was never needed. (ie, I don't want to go through that extra step of selecting "0" for "VA" option, even though it looks like the default is set at "0". In my case the default is actually "14" though you would think it is "0"

7. BUG FIX PLEASE - I'm no longer able to "select all" when using "Take a snapshot" function since last update

   I used to be able to "select all" when taking a snapshot. Now this option is not available when using it.

   I have to save it as an image file now to select and copy the whole image. Very time-consuming as I do this very often.

   Please restore the ability to "select all" when taking a snapshot!

9. Acrobat Pro 2024 Classic Release cannot install additional spelling dictionaries

   Product & Version:
   
   Adobe Acrobat Pro 2024 - Classic Release
   
   Version 2024.001.30383 (64-bit)

   Environment:
   
   Windows 11 (64-bit)

   Summary
   Acrobat Pro 2024 exposes UI options for installing additional spelling dictionaries, but the installation process is non-functional. The application instructs the user to "install manually", yet no manual installer exists for Acrobat Pro. The only available dictionary pack (2023) is restricted to Acrobat Reader and cannot be installed in Acrobat Pro, leaving the feature unusable for non-English languages.

   Steps to Reproduce
   1. Launch Adobe Acrobat Pro 2024.
   
   2. Open Edit / Preferences / Spelling.
   
   3. Click Add Dictionary.
   
   4. Attempt to add or install a new dictionary (e.g., Spanish, French, Portuguese).

   Expected Result
   Acrobat Pro should:

   • Provide a valid dictionary installer compatible with Acrobat Pro 2024, or
   • Allow installation of additional language dictionaries directly through the UI, or
   • Disable or remove the dictionary-installation UI if the feature is not supported.

   Actual Result
   - The Add Dictionary dialog opens, but no dictionaries can be selected or installed.
   
   - Acrobat displays a message instructing the user to "install manually."
   
   - No manual installer is provided.
   
   - The only available dictionary pack (2023) requires Acrobat Reader and cannot be installed in Acrobat Pro.
   
   - As a result, full spelling dictionaries for non-English languages cannot be added.

   Additional Observation
   The application successfully accepts the UK English dictionary when US English is already installed. This confirms that the dictionary system is functional for English variants. The failure appears to affect only non-English dictionaries, which consistently trigger the "install manually" message and cannot be installed.

   This suggests the issue is not caused by installation corruption or OS configuration, but by missing or incompatible dictionary installers for non-English languages in Acrobat Pro 2024.

   Impact
   The dictionary-installation feature is completely non-functional for non-English languages in Acrobat Pro 2024.
   
   Users can add custom words, but cannot install full language dictionaries, making spell-checking unavailable for Spanish, French, Portuguese, and other languages.

   Severity
   Medium-High
   
   The UI suggests that dictionary installation is supported, but the required installer is missing or incompatible. This results in a broken workflow and user confusion.

   Notes
   - OCR language support works correctly (Spanish, French, Portuguese, English).
   
   - The issue appears to be caused by Adobe discontinuing the dictionary installer for Acrobat Pro while leaving the UI intact.
   
   - Multiple users have reported identical behavior.

   Product & Version:
   
   Adobe Acrobat Pro 2024 - Classic Release
   
   Version 2024.001.30383 (64-bit)

   Environment:
   
   Windows 11 (64-bit)

11. Add address bar on top to save extracted pages

    When extracting pages, right now it prompts me to "Browse Folders" where to save. it then extracts the pages one by one into whatever folder I chose. I need to go combine the pages then rename the file... It's very tedious when we have several times of extracting... Would like an option so when clicking Extract page, I can use the address bar on top to navigate the path/folder i want asap, then hopefully be able to rename the pdf and then save as one whole file. Thank you so much.

12. paste doesn't retain selection

    Up until Monday, when I was in Edit mode and pasted items (text and outline box) from another page onto my active page, all the pasted items would remain selected and I could then drag them into place. Now the selection seems to be cleared and I have difficulty selecting the new items that are pasted over the top of original items.

    Also when I was viewing the full page, the items would paste in the same position as they were on the original page, but if I zoomed in, they would paste on the page where I was viewing. Now they just go to the previous position, regardless of zoom or viewing position. I am using 2026.001.21789

13. rotated pages are not saved

    When I rotate the image, it is impossible to save it

    The new Adobe 2024 is worse than Adobe 2020, which I had for years and lost when my computer died and I had to buy another computer. It is the first ridiculous thing that I saw, as on my Adobe account I couldn't even see which computers I had connected to cancel the computer which died.

    Now we should pay more money for the worse variant of Adobe.
    
    I took Black Icon 2024 in the hope that it would be like Black Icon 2020. No, it is not the same - it is as bad as all other Adobe apps.

    And now what I got for the money I paid? - It doesn't even save the rotated pages - I don't want to send this kind of file to our vendors or customers. It looks SO NOT professional. But if some employee sends me a file turned on its side or upside down, and I want to fix it before submitting it further, it just doesn't work. So this kind of expensive Adobe makes our work NOT professional. It is ridiculous. So, after I rotate a page, I need to save it under a different name, delete the first PDF, etc. Is it a service improvement?

    And again, my Adobe account doesn't show all I have on my account - both keys (I have two) all computers assigned, etc.

14. Multiple issues when editing and handling PDF files after latest update.

    After the latest update, several problems occur when working in Adobe Acrobat Reader:

    It is not possible to select text by clicking and dragging the cursor.
    It is not possible to paste copied text into the document.
    It is not possible to resize text boxes/fields.
    Instead, the text wraps to a new line instead of allowing the text box to be expanded.
    It is not possible to drag a tab out of the window to open it in a new window, which prevents working with multiple PDF files side by side.

    These issues significantly impact usability and make normal PDF editing and multitasking difficult.

15. Issue when typing in Japanese: Input box appears at the top left.

    [Windows / v26.1] Floating IME input box at top left when typing Japanese

    Environment:

    OS: Windows

    App: Adobe Acrobat (Version 26.1)

    Description:
    When I am typing in Japanese using IME on Windows, a small input box pops up at the top left corner of the screen instead of displaying the text at the cursor position.

    This in-line IME display bug makes Japanese text editing very difficult. Please fix this issue.

16. Acrobat Pro 2026 does not display third-party installed fonts in Edit PDF font list

    Installed fonts should appear in the Acrobat font list and be available for use when adding text.

    Microsoft fonts such as Arial, Calibri, and Times New Roman appear, but installed third-party fonts such as Star Strella and Dancing Script do not appear anywhere in the font list.

    Troubleshooting performed:

    Repaired Acrobat installation.
    Restarted Windows.
    Reinstalled fonts.
    Installed fonts for all users.
    Verified fonts are present in Windows Fonts and available in Microsoft Word.
    Tested multiple third-party fonts.
    Tested in a newly created blank PDF.

    This appears to be an Acrobat font detection/enumeration issue because the fonts are properly installed and accessible to other applications but are not recognized by Acrobat.

17. Acrobat freezes during Preflight when the PDF file path contains Japanese characters

    Environment
    Adobe Acrobat Pro
    Continuous Release
    Version: 2026.001.21789
    64-bit
    Updated to the latest version on August 14, 2026

    Steps to reproduce

    Save a PDF file in a folder whose file path contains Japanese characters.
    Example: C:\PDF\日本語フォルダー\sample.pdf
    Open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    Open the Preflight tool.
    Run Preflight on the PDF.

    Expected result

    Preflight should run normally regardless of whether the file path contains Japanese or other non-ASCII characters.

    Actual result

    Acrobat freezes and becomes unresponsive when Preflight is run on a PDF whose file path contains Japanese characters.

    This issue is still reproducible after updating Acrobat to the latest version available on August 14, 2026.

    File paths containing Japanese characters are very common in Japanese Windows environments, so this issue seriously affects normal Preflight workflows.

18. Drawing markup has become unnecessarily difficult

    I've been using Adobe Acrobat Pro to review and mark up engineering drawings, and I wanted to share my experience with the latest release.

    Today I needed to perform a very simple task: add a double-ended dimension arrow and a text label to a PDF drawing. What should have taken around two minutes instead took well over half an hour.

    The main issue was not a lack of functionality, but that the functionality was extremely difficult to discover.

    The ⋯ button on the toolbar opens Customize Toolbar, which naturally led me to believe that this was where I needed to add the drawing tools. I spent a considerable amount of time trying to understand why I could see tools such as Line, Arrow and Rectangle in the customization dialog, but could not add them to the toolbar because the Add button was disabled. It was completely unclear that these tools already existed elsewhere.

    Eventually I discovered that the drawing tools are hidden behind a tool called Draw, which I only found by using the search box. This wasn't obvious from the interface, and I don't think many users would intuitively think to search for "Draw" simply to find basic markup tools.

    Once I had found the drawing tools, I was able to create an arrow, but even then the workflow was confusing. It wasn't immediately obvious that a double-ended arrow is created by changing the Start and End properties separately. The terminology (Open, Closed, Reverse, Butt, Slash, etc.) is not self-explanatory for users who simply want an arrow at each end.

    Adding text was equally frustrating. I found multiple text tools with similar names—Add Text Comment, Text Callout, and other annotation options—but they behaved differently and it was difficult to determine which one was appropriate. The text editing toolbar also appeared to have very limited formatting capabilities. I couldn't find a straightforward way to make text bold or change its colour, both of which are common requirements when marking up technical drawings.

    My overall impression is that the interface has become significantly harder to learn than previous versions. Simple engineering review tasks now require users to search for hidden tools, interpret unfamiliar terminology, and work around interface limitations.

    Adobe Acrobat is widely used by engineers, architects and designers to review PDF drawings. I believe the markup tools would benefit from being much more discoverable, with a dedicated, clearly labelled drawing toolbar and consistent text formatting options.

    I hope this feedback is helpful. I think Acrobat remains an excellent PDF viewer and editor, but the markup experience for technical drawing review has become unnecessarily complex and time-consuming.

19. Horrendously Ridiculous Gawdawful New Design

    Your new design is Horrendous. I can't find anything. Why do you shuffle everything around and hide all the most useful tools so no one can find them. Do you delight in making your users crazy? Not to mention terribly inefficient - it takes me 5 times longer to create and edit a document and even then it's not how I want it to appear. I often have to just save and move the file to my old PC and work off my old Adobe Acrobat (in no time it turns out just how I want it!!). Who on earth thought up this new design?!?!?
    
    And - please get rid of the stupid nuisance annoying AI.
