rotate
When I click "edit" and it says "converting scanned page to editable....", it rotates my first page slightly eskew......every....single....time. I have to constantly click undo every time I move from "organize pages" and back.

highlight straight line
All the HELP articles say by holding the shift key and dragging the highlight tool, it will highlight in a straight line. When I hold down the shift key, it disables the highlight tool. (When I drag the highlight tool, nothing happens.)

Acrobat changes superscripted characters to subscripted in comment boxes
I am an editor of an international journal, and edit a large number of journal articles using Adobe Acrobat. It is a scientific journal, so there are many equations and variables with superscripts and subscripts. My problem is the after writing in a comment box and using superscript on a text character as part of an equation or unit definition, then saving the document, Acrobat changes my superscript to subscript. This needs to be fixed as soon as possible. It makes it difficult or impossible to provide correct editorial comments to authors. Please fix this error promptly. Thank you.

BUG REPORT!!!!!!! Replacing a TOC page with list of hyperlinks FAILS - why is Acrobat such a piece of garbage??!??!?!??!?!?!??!?!?
I was hoping to post a bug report on this piece of garbage [SH*T] application but here I am joining a group to post this to everyone who needs to know just what an absolute piece of garbage Adobe Acrobat is, and has always been.
908-page doc with two pages of the 8 pages of contents that needs to be replaced with two new pages that have external hyperlinks.
These two page work exactly as they should as separate standalone pages.
But when I replace - side note - why is the text window on this also garbage platform cutting…

Edits on one page appearing across other pages of a document
When I edit a document, whether it be striking out a word or adding a new paragraph it will past the same actions across multiple pages within my document. Its a bug I cant seem to get rid off. I just want the one area edited not pasting what I am editing across every page of my document. Makes the program unusable.

text box default size too long!!!
When you add a text box, the size of the default box is too long and you have to manually shrink the box to the left. If you don't, it can cover another box and then you can't adjust it because the boxes overlap. When boxes overlap, you have to drag one of the out of the way to edit the other one, then manually drag the first box back into place. There should be an option to specify, as default, the internal/external margins of the text box instead of having this long rectangle as an unchangeable default!

default font/color/format
Adobe claims the issue of setting a default font and size has been resolved. This is not so. You can set the default font in the Preferences>content section, but there is no option to set the color or formatting such as bold or italic. These should be part of setting the font characteristics!

Why do parts of my documents disappear after I try to save my document?
I type out on a document. I have the whole thing ready to save. I save the document and random letters do not save on the typed areas that I have created. I use Windows 11.
This seems to be counterintuitive to the functionality of PDF's. Please help2 votes -

New Tool Design
Hi,
the new design (at this date: 02.01.2026) makes it very difficult for me to distinguish between the individual functions.
With the help of the colored tools, I could immediately see which function was behind which design. Now without the colors everything looks the same. There are simply too many tools to remember all the differences in the icons.4 votes -
Matching fonts is unbelievably glitchy
I have edited a previous document almost identical to the one i am now and it worked decent. now i try it agian and some how no matter how hard i search i cannot find a matching font. so all my edits stick out like a sore thumb. it should auto match, and as i delete text it does, then when i add text, it reverts back to some other default font... this is beyond frustrating. but hey, at least theres an ai to make some suggestions.....

Randomly doesn't prompt PDF to be saved
Not always, but sometimes I'll make a change in a PDF, like adding or removing a page or reorganizing the pages and the save icon will not display. If I close the window at this time, the change is not saved.
To mitigate losing my work, I'll have to grab an existing page, drag it to a new page order (then move it back) for the SAVE icon to prompt. I've only noticed this since going to the cloud or web-based version of Adobe. I'm currently on 25.001.21288.2 votes -
Add option for outlined-only radio button
Add option for outlined-only radio button circles in Acrobat form fields
Description of desired feature:
Please add an appearance option for radio buttons in Acrobat form fields that allows the button to display as an outlined circle only, without the filled black dot when selected.Currently, radio buttons always display a filled center when selected. In many official forms and government-style documents, the required design is a simple outlined circle around the selected option rather than a filled dot.
This could be implemented as:
A new radio button style option
Customizable selection appearance
Border-only selected state

Super slow editing a drawing
When I edit files with multiple layers, the program slows to a crawl. It started happening a couple weeks ago. Before that this file and many other like it were not a problem. This is making work impossible. Please provide an update or something. I have tried the cleaner tool to completely remove it from my computer but the problem returns.
I have attached an example video of the problem and the specifics of my computer and software.

Batch/Automate Import Data for Form Fields
Currently we can import data into form fields. Now this may save some time but what if you have an excel sheet with 100+ entries?
This can be automated with code however it has some major flaws compared to the built-in import data option. The code option is 1) inaccessible for average users 2) needs the exact amount of form fields as table headers.
Number 2 is the major drawback, it means you can't have any field on your PDF that won't be modified by the table. What's strange is that this doesn't occur using the non-automated equivalent.
There are…

ORGANIZING PAGES - More frequently than not, the tab doesn't work as it should.
How about you guys start making it so I can effectively organize my pages when I click "Organize Pages"???
This may be a crazy and novel thought, but I should not have to be locked out of clicking individual pages because AdobePDF is incompetent and slow.
How do I fix this personally? I have to SAVE the file. Why do I have to do that to restore normal organizational functionality? Fix it.

Redacting a Hidden Layer Form XObject Creates Duplicate OCGs
After redacting (with hidden content removal disabled) a hidden layer form XObject partially, the toggling of the hidden layer fails. This is because Acrobat creates a copy of the OCG. One of the OCG objects is toggled in /OCProperties; however, this isn't the OCG that's present in the form xobject's /OC entry. Rather, the form xobject references the copy of the OCG. Therefore, toggling does nothing, and behaviour is unclear since it looks as if redacting a hidden layer makes the content visible by default.
