1. Font Awesome

   I wanted to use Font Awesome icons in Forms, but is not possible. I choose the Font Awesome in text field properties, but doesn't show when I want to copy an icon from the cheatsheet - the same technique works with every other Adobe program. This is a cheatsheet that I use: http://fontawesome.io/cheatsheet/. The font is installed on my computer.

2. Acrobat Pro arbitrarily changes form field types after crash

   First my suggestion for Acrobat Pro is work more painstakingly or stock up staff! The CC costs a bunch of money and when working with it, it shows that it doesn't function as sufficient as is should. Especially when it comes to creating/editing more advanced interactive PDFs with Acrobat Pro. The possibility to do that basically is a very mighty and good feature but it doesn't runs as stable as it should.

   In my opinion there could/should be a standalone software thats reduced to interactive/form field and layout functions (comparable: InDesign) only. Acrobat Pro is packed full with lots of features and often many of them feel (maybe therefore) like a compromise.

   Recently I noticed a lot of bugs, but so far I didn't took my time to report one of them. Today I want to start with it.

   To my bug:

   Acrobat seems to randomly change the type of my form fields.

   I'm working on a PDF questionaire with about 70 pages. The PDF doesn't only consists of text/input fields it also has buttons that enable the users to navigate to different sites. While working on this today Acrobat for Mac suddenly got stuck.

   I wanted to set an action of a field to "show/hide a field", after i chosed this action from the list the software got stuck. The mac umbrella kept spinning and the software didn't reacted until I force-closed and restarted it.

   After the restart I glanced through some navigation fields that I edited before. They were configured as normal buttons with a "go to page X" action. In the form field overview/list on the right I noticed that they (only some) changed their type from "OK/button" to a checkbox/checkfield - which is some kind of weird. Nevertheless their configured action kept unchanged but after clicking and coming back to the page where they're placed, they appear as a checked checkbox.

   In Acrobat Pro there is a lot of what normal users/customers would call "randomness" in its behavior. I'm sure there are very complex dependencies behind these problems but for the user it simply feels not
   incomprehensible and unsatisfactory.

   At least I can speak for me. I'm often very frustrated, when working with Acrobat Pro on interactive PDFs because the idea of being able to do so is basically great and in other aspects the software already is a good product.

4. Wrong calculation in copied fields

   when doing a calculation in a form like
   A1B1=C1
   with given standard values A1=2, B1=3 resulting in a field with calculation result of 6 (from 2x3=6) you get mistakes in a new calculation when you
   - copy the three field
   - rename them to D1, E1 and F1 and
   - change the standard values and the calculation to D1=3, E1=4
   - change the calculation to D1E1 with result 12
   the shown form is still A1*B1=C1 values in both lines

   This is a bug that should be solved.

5. Expandable (and/or pop-out) "FIELDS" Pane When Editing a Form

   (See attachment)
   It would be great to be able to grab and pull the left edge of the FIELDS pane over to the left to widen it. Some of the text field names can be very long and can look identical to others unless you can see the whole title. (I know you can hover over the title to see the full text but that only seems to work intermittently, and is time-consuming).
   Also, when scrolling up and down or when trying to grab and move titles to rearrange the tab order, it's easy to get confused and lose your place when there are dozens or hundreds of fields.
   Additionally, it would be great to be able to "pop out" this section entirely (so that you can expand the window as much as needed, both horizontally and vertically), as scrolling feels VERY restrictive when you need to rearrange the tab order of dozens of fields (fields sometimes get mixed up when exporting an InDesign file to a PDF form).
   Thank you for your time.

6. Create Expandable Text Field Forms

   Adobe Acrobat Pro needs to have the ability to create expandable text field forms that allow the text box to expand when the user types similar to what you can do with Livecycle.

   This is a feature that has been requested a lot online. Currently Acrobat Pro only allows multi-line text field forms with a scroll bar, but you cannot create an expanding text field form that increases in the height of the text field to accomodate more text.

   The functionality to create this even in Livecycle is too clunky and complicated to use.

7. Arabic doesn't export well to .csv from the response collection window - bug

   I created a form in Acrobat DC Pro, distributed and collected the form successfully. In the collection window, Any field filled up in Arabic shows up properly – see screenshot (Collected-results-with-Arabic.jpg).
   However when I export all results to .csv format so I can compare all results, any Arabic text will display as dots – see screenshot (arabic-in-excel.jpg)

   I performed all above steps on Mac and Windows using Acrobat Pro DC 15.23.20056.213124 with similar results

   Arabic text should be readable in the exported .csv file

   Arabic text is converted to dots upon exporting all data from the form collection window.

8. Detailed step-by-setp instructions to create complex forms

   There are many basic youtube videos on creating forms. I need to know how to create complex forms with equation, reference fields and so on. What i learned from what is available out there is not adequate and doesn't work all the time. So better instructions are needed. You sell a product but must also provide good instructions on how to use it well. If there isn't any internal resource, please contract 3-party to do so. i have spent so much time on it and am still fumbling around. Very unproductive with my time.

9. Form Field Calculation

   On Adobe Acrobat DC for Mac, when trying to program a calculation, the Field Selection dialog box is much too small to see the field names, and it can't be enlarged! There doesn't seem to be a way to select the fields outside of the dialog box on the form, which would be very convenient and make sense. It makes it impossible to use the calculate feature if you have long field names, which Adobe creates by default.
