   Came below the Line:02 row box, after the conversion of doc from pdf to excel.

2. Adobe Acrobat Pro bug - extracting text with ligatures

   This is about both editing and exporting PDFs.
   The attached PDF has an explicit explanation of the issues + screenshots. Text from the attached file goes right here.

   I’ve got Adobe Acrobat Pro DC 2015 Release Version 2015.006.30355.

   On Web page https://www.zm.gov.lv/mezi/statiskas-lapas/nozares-informacija/buklets-meza-nozare-latvija-?nid=1088#jump
   ..there is a link to a PDF file "Latvia's Forests During 20 Years of Independence" 2010, https://www.zm.gov.lv/public/ck/files/ZM/mezhi/buklets/MN_20_EN.pdf
   The PDF file seems to be a nicely composed PDF with Adobe InDesign CS5.5 (7.5.2).
   The font used, Museo Slab is a publicly available font, I bet it should not have any major issues.

   In the said file, page 47 there are multiple issues with a context having a ligature ffi in the source text ‘office’. This is the only occurrence in the file containing the word ‘office’.

   1. When Copy/Paste is applied from Acrobat Pro to Notepad++ with the regular Select tool, I get C2 8A UTF-8 bytes which is shown as [VTS] in Notepad++.

   No ‘office’.

   1. With Text Edit tool (Tools > Edit PDF > Edit) I cannot select the entire word. Only starting from the second letter. I try to do selection both with mouse and with SHIFT+keyboard arrows. No way to select the first letter. BUT as for the remaining letters, I get all the components of the ligature as correct letters in the output with Copy/Paste to Notepad++:

   Just ‘ffice’ of ‘office’.
   But this shows that there is facility to get normal text from ligatures, however it is not implemented correctly or not at all in all the tools and scenarios making them all buggy. Why can I not select the leading ‘o’?

   1. Also, when exported to HTML, the ligature gets encoded as C2 8A in UTF-8.

   The same as for Copy/Paste.

   If the routine which allows copying ffi from the edit tool was applied to Select and Export tools, some of the Acrobat Pro bugs would be fixed.

   I have several other bugs in my list. If this makes sense for Adobe, please confirm, and I will keep posting. Moreover, I hope these will be fixed asap. These bugs are there since at least v9.

3. Export to Microsoft Word

   1. Open a PDF document with Arabic content.

   2. This PDF was generated from InDesign CC2017. Arabic fonts used is a good True Type and OpenType fonts. Macintosh 10.11.2 / Acrobat DC Build: 15.23.20056.213124

   3. When exporting to MS Office format, we expect to have a decent conversion as we see with PDFs that has English content.

   4. I opened resulted Word document in MS. Word on Windows, Text Edit on Mac, Apple Preview. The result varies, but generally Arabic text doesn't convert properly, most words scrambled and fragmented.

4. User Product Report

   Within the Adobe Admin Console an administrator does not have the capability to export user data identifying which product is assigned to the user. To run the reports you have to drill to every product and export the data. I asked for the report from tech support and they said the feature I am requesting is not available but to request to it added as a feature. On the feature wish form drop list it does not specify Admin functions so I chose first Adobe product on the list. The function to export all user data to understand the products purchased and who they're assigned to should be available to customers and to not have it or be willing to produce it is unacceptable customer service.

   Thanks for raising this feature request, our engineering team is looking into this.

5. Export PDF as InDesign file

   We often receive multi-page PDFs of publications initially created in InDesign with a request for updates. In order to make these updates flexibly, we would have to recreate the document indesign and then make the updates.

   I seams reasonable to ask Adobe, to create a functionality, where one can convert or export PDF (generated from InDesign document) to .indd InDesign file format.

6. Saving a file created from an Illustrator file overwrites that file instead of opening a new save dialogue.

   Steps to Reproduce:
   1. open acrobat DC
   2. create a PDF from file.
   3. save file
   4. check the original file to see if it has retained it's format and is properly openable.

   Environment:
   OS: Windows 10
   CPU: Intel i5 6600k @4.3GHz
   RAM: 16gb(2x8gb) G-skill Trident-z @3000MHz
   Motherboard: Gigabyte G1 gaming 5

   Acrobat Version: 2015.023.20070

   Expected result:
   Doing this should bring up a new save dialogue, or the save-as dialogue technically. Then once it is saved it should switch to that file.

   Observed Result:
   Doing this overwrote the original file w/o providing a save dialogue.

   I have attached the ruined file and a SysInfo Report from acrobat.

   Steps to Reproduce:
   1. open acrobat DC
   2. create a PDF from file.
   3. save file

   Environment:

8. Vector Rasterise

   Rasterise all vectors option in the export PDF dialogue window.

   I use lots of detailed vector files in my layouts and when producing PDF's for approval this can be an issue as the files sizes can be too big to send back and forth over email. There are numerous work arounds but none really give a seamless document flow that should happen. Making a JPEG of my files and placing those instead of eps or ai files can be a headache also.

9. Snapshot of PDF page for export to JPG has bugs

   If you open those files in Acrobat, and use the snapshot feature, then "control-a" to select everything, you will see differences in each one. In each case, on the right side, the app selects more than it should be selecting. For example, the sample with inset and color has a small band of white on the right side that is included in the selection that should not be. This was a bug in Acrobat 9. I was hoping to find this problem fixed in this version, but it is not. I only discovered this recently, because I started adding background color to my pages that I was exporting to acrobat from Indesign, and when I exported them, I noticed the uncolored band on the right. It is not a problem with the margins (all .25 in), and the gutter is zero. These are single page exports from Indesign, not facing pages. I suppose the problem could have its origins in some bug in Indesign.
