  1. It also skips documents when scanning keep on stopping. There is too many step to create .pdf. I have no problem using the older version. Also paper size keeps going back to A4 size paper I want it to stay on Legal Size paper instead. How do you save the setting?

  2. Huge resource hog and cannot export Combine PDFs. Go to save and a blank window appears. Adobe DC is a piece of garbage. I've seen nothing but problems after XI. It's gotten slower, more buggy and the interface and process of using is even more cumbersome than ever. If your idea was to cause more users to spend more time on your software... good job! Mission accomplished! Now I need a solution since you've totally ruined me being able to use it for anything. Oh, but I pay for keeping it updated.

  3. The posted instructions for adding "attachments" inside a PDF document are missing a crucial step toward the end. If it's a file or PDF already "attached" to the main PDF, a user must OPEN the attachment BEFORE clicking on SET LINK or the link will NOT FUNCTION. See attached screen shot or this URL: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/links-attachments-pdfs.html

  4. It is practically impossible to publish a hyperlink in a PDF document with the current security paradigm. Converting a word to PDF results in links getting blocked in a window called Security Block, with the message "Adobe Acrobat does not allow connection to: [website domain]." You limit the reach of and potential of PDF documents by having such an unnecessarily aggressive security posture.

  5. Ever since the update my work computer got for Adobe Acrobat - splitting invoices has been even more time consuming. There's this new bug where every time I change my output options it doesn't save and defaults to "the same folder selected at start." This happens every time. I have to repeat this process a second time for the location to save. Also whenever I close output options window, the "Split" window should not close after I make my selection. This was not an issue in the previous version of Adobe I had.

  6. (I have already posted this in community, but was directed here. Fortunately there is a "solution" but it is a bit laborsome, at least the first time: see here:
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/choose-sheet-size-and-other-properties-when-creating-pdfs-from-jpeg/m-p/14284448#M441904

    Suggestion:

    Hello,

    I think that the possibility to choose sheet size and other properties when creating pdfs from jpeg is missing. It is nice to be able to combine several jpegs to a pdf by the "combine function", but unfortunately, this creates huge sheets of the jpegs as opposed to the regular A4.

    I had to go into each jpeg and print them from "windows photo", and that should be…

  7. I frequently get the attached error message when selecting Save As PDF in Microsoft Word. It says that the path of the document is too long and to please save to a path with fewer than 255 characters. I believe there is an ancient limit in older versions of Windows that has been eliminated, but this bug still exists in Acrobat.

    I am running the latest version of Acrobat under Windows 10 with the latest version of Word from Microsoft 365.

    The workaround is to simply print the file to the Adobe PDF printer, but it would be nice to…

  8. I want to use PDFMaker to creat a PDF from an MS Word dokument which contains graphics created and inserted with ChemDraw. When the PDF is created it does not look like it should.
    I use Acrobat Pro 2023.006.20380 and MS Word 2310 Build 16924.20150

    Attached you can find the MS Word dokument and also the generated PDF. The graphic on top is the one inserted with ChemDraw (22.2.0.330). The lower one was converted into an SVG and inserted into the dokument as Vector grphics.

  9. I am a paid Adobe subscriber.
    When I run the PDF, the phrase “Free Trial” keeps popping up.
    This phrase was seen intermittently in 2023. When will this be fixed?

  10. I'm on Adobe DC V23.0 on a Mac (Ventura 13.0.1 (22A400)). Create a PDF > Multiple Files > Combine Files > Next. I've tried combining 2 JPGs into a single PDF file. Used to do it all the time. Now not working. Application stops responding while on "Checking for Security Settings..."

  11. Hi Adobe Support Team. I would like to report a bug in Acrobat. We added an Emoticon [Windows button PLUS dot button] in Word [Office 365]. When we want to make a PDF from this Word file, the text after the Emoticon is simply missing in the PDF version. The same happens when we add other symbols. I thought I let you know. We would be happy if you would fix this...

    I have added a file which has little orange symbols. Those symbols cause the same failure as an Emoticon would do. If you remove the symbols, the PDF…

  12. So Combining the PDF option Creates an extra page. This does not happen when a Word document is saved and then combined. It seems that ADOBE's Conversion is either detecting Footers or Headers as a page and creating an extra page. How do we fix this? The issue is with the conversion not combining the files. Not an issue with Word since it is capable of saving as PDF without the extra pages. It would also not save certain pages.

  14. An Australian customer operating in the financial advisory domain would like to add a disclaimer footer notes.They would also like to have a

    Customer Ask

    a. Add a disclaimer footer note on documents selectively.
    b. The disclaimer should auto populate once the document is imported in Acrobat.

    Current Process

    The customer has developed a small widget at the top of the Acrobat UI through Java script which gives them the ability to add the footer once a word file is opened in Acrobat. This is however is not a fool proof solution as the user add the footer manually.

  15. Warum kriegt ihr das seit Jahren nicht mehr hin was anständiges abzuliefern? Nicht einmal Copy&Paste funktioniert in Acrobat ... lächerlich!!! Ständig muss man sich mit eurem Schei.. auseinandersetzen! Nichts funktioniert reibungslos und dann wird man noch genötigt euren Müll mit zu fixen! Testet euren Schei.. einfach mal vor Auslieferung! Das kostet mein Geld und meine Geduld!

    b) when printing to Adobe PDF with "only system fonts" enabled.

  17. Using Microsoft Word for Mac Ver 16.78.3 under Mac iOS Sonoma 14.0 as recently updated. Seems any bullet points done in WORD no longer convert properly as a pdf. Instead they appear and open squares. Others in my office have NOT updated to Sonoma and bullets are working properly. HELP!

  19. Several major bugs have been documented by users in the Adobe Community Forums since Acrobat and PDF Maker were updated on September 14, 2021.

    They are:

    1: Alt-Text from MS Word is not converting into the PDF. Instead, it is dropped and gibberish code is inserted. See https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/alt-text-converting-wrong-from-word-to-pdf/m-p/12393017 This violates the PDF/UA-1 standard which requires that every graphic have alt-text that verbally describes the graphic.

    THIS IS A HUGE BUG. You essentially have made Acrobat unusable for those who are required by their country's laws to make fully accessible PDFs.

    2: Every cell border on every table cell is being…

    Hi,

    Thank you for raising these accessibility issues. The post mentions about the following six bugs being introduced with the update that went live on September 14, 2021

    1: Alt-Text from MS Word is not converting into the PDF. Instead, it is dropped and gibberish code is inserted
    2: Every cell border on every table cell is being tagged as <P>PathPathPathPath
    3: The underline on Hyperlinks should be tagged as artifacts
    4: Borders and background shadings on Text Boxes are being tagged as a combination of <Figure>s and PathPathPath
    5: Paragraph borders and shadings: same deal as #4 above.Per the PDF/UA-1 standard, they are visually decorative and should be artifacted
    6: Dragging and dropping elements in both the Tag and Order panels is now broken.

    Would like to mention that out of these, #1 and #6 were introduced with the Sep 14 update and remaining (#2, #3, #4 & #5)…

  20. When pressing Save As, it was previously possible to use Arrows (keyboard) to navigate to appropriate path. With this new version, it was disabled.

    It saves tons of times when you create/edit pdf (I usually do about 300-400 per week)
