1. Allow for customizability of text snippets in advanced search results

   Summary of the Problems: Search result snippets in an Advanced Search are often uninformative due to two distinct problems.

   Problem 1. The length of text snippet in each search result is too short.
   Problem 2. The search term occurs too "early" in the result snippet (that is, the term you searched for is the first or second word in the snippet--you see nothing that came before your term, which is often what you needed to know).

   Solution to Problem 1: allow the user the ability to customize the maximum size of snippets returned with search results. We have huge monitors nowadays; we can make the advanced search window itself huge; why not allow for the ability to make the search result snippets really long, too? Or at least longer than they are now?

   Solution to Problem 2: allow the user to customize where the search term occurs within the result snippet. For instance, this could be a finely-grained preference, such as "Search result should be returned with X number of characters/words before/after it" where X is some user-entered number. Or there could be just a coarsely-grained preference, such as, "Search term should occur at the beginning/middle/end of the snippet."

   Reason these are needed: often, a snippet is informative only if you have a certain amount of surrounding text, or only if you know a certain amount of text that comes before and after the term you searched. Presently, however, the search term occurs as the very first, or sometimes second, word of the snippet result. If you wanted to know what came before your search term in order to judge the relevance of a particular search hit, the snippet becomes unhelpful. In such cases, you have no other option but to click over to the document to get your context and then back to your search window to jump to the next result. But then, if you do that, it negates the point of having that result snippet. Such clicking back and forth between search result window and document window might not sound like much, but when your search results number in the hundreds, this clicking-back-and-forth procedure makes your work very inefficient; in a large publishing or indexing project, you might need to perform thousands of advanced searches, each with dozens or hundreds of hits. In such situations, the time-saving potential of implementing this request becomes apparent.

   Summary of the Problems: Search result snippets in an Advanced Search are often uninformative due to two distinct problems.

   Problem 1. The length of text snippet in each search result is too short.
   Problem 2. The search term occurs too "early" in the result snippet (that is, the term you searched for is the first or second word in the snippet--you see nothing that came before your term, which is often what you needed to know).

2. Add tutorial to add an index to a book. Your instructions for it are WAY TOO VAGUE.

   I have been trying to add an index for a 278 page book in PDF. I spent an hour on the phone to tech support in India and no one there seems to know how to do this.

   I also need to be able to VIEW it and install it into this PDF to publish it. PLEASE add a tutorial on how this is done, step by step, without CLOUDING the issue with terms like "catalog" and "metatdata" that do NOT contribute to the objective.

6. Bug on Redacted Information

   I have received a redacted contract on Adobe Acrobat Standard DC that I use on Windows 7. When I hold down ctrl and scroll in (to zoom) the redacted information flashes and I can see what information is blacked out. I think the information should be securely blacked out so there is no possibility of obtaining that information.

7. REMOVE window changing position after saving a file

   Currently, when you save a PDF the software slightly changes the window position, perhaps because the developers wanted a subtle way of emphasizing the completion of the saving process.

   However, this window position changing is VERY MUCH ANNOYING for those users who are working with their screen splitted between two softwares. For instance, using Windows 10, when you put Acrobat to the left (WindowsKey + LeftKey) and another software to the right (WindowsKey + RightKey). Then, if you save your file in Acrobat it changes it's window position, putting the window slightly over the other software and leaving an unused space, which allows you to see your desktop!

   That is absolutely useless because we have other ways of knowing when the saving process is complete (such as looking to the save button), what turns this "feature" in a pointless and irritating thing.

   So, my suggestion is simple: REMOVE THIS "changing window position after saving" FEATURE!

   I want to save my files in peace, for God's sake.
   Thank you!!!

9. [BUG] (new) preflight libraries, scripts cannot call profiles outside current library

   BUG report:
   [ISSUE]
   1. Preflight profiles outside last used preflight library (a new feature) cannot be called by scripts
   [STEPS TO REPRODUCE]
   2.1. Import a preflight profile into the Standard preflight library
   2.2. Change preflight library and execute a profile from another library
   2.3. Use a JavaScript call to launch the profile installed in step 2.1, i.e. Preflight.getProfileByName(name)
   (Documentation: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/acrobat_dc_sdk/2015/HTMLHelp/Acro12_MasterBook/JS_API_AcroJS/Preflight_methods.htm?rhtocid=_6_1_8_55_0_3#TOC_getProfileByNamebc-4)
   2.4 Profile cannot be found
   [ENVIRONMENT]
   3. Windows 10, Acrobat Pro DC 2017.009.20044
   [EXPECTED RESULT]
   4. The Profile installed under 2.1 should be executed
   [OBSERVED RESULT]
   5. The Profile cannot be executed by the script.

   [Further comment]:
   Preflight libraries are a new feature. They cannot be selected via the Script API. I now have to tell script users not to change the preflight library, which some of them often do. Clearly the JavaScript call should look for the preflight profile in all libraries - or there should be a documented way of executing a profile regardless of a user's previous preflight activities.

11. Bug report - pdf won't open with Acrobat DC pro but opens properly with reader

    I am trying to open a pdf form from the Gov. of Canada using Acrobat Pro DC but nothing happens. After double clicking the file, I can see a background process (in task manager) but it doesn't show any activity and the interface doesn't show even after several minutes of waiting. I have tried restarting / repairing installation but same result. Any other document works fine. I have tried opening the same document on another machine with Acrobat reader DC and it opens properly in a few seconds. I have attached the document as well as a screenshot of the property/security.
