  1. Anonymous review (especially commenting) of PDF documents is an absolutely essential feature for academics. We are required to do anonymous peer reviews of manuscripts submitted for publication on a regular basis. This used to be simple, but is now impossible, unless one wishes to change each comment on a one-by-one basis. If you don't restore this basic functionality, you risk losing a huge group of users.

  2. Acrobat should ALWAYS have rulers up. It's too burried to click on it every time.
    Radio button should always come up as a group and
    there should be a way to alter the space in a field verticle.

    Hi,

    If your Previous session had any PDF’s launched when it was last Closed, then there is a Menu item Under File→ Reopen PDFs from Last Session which will open the pdfs that were launched in your previous session before closing.

    Attaching a snapshot to help you with.

    Also there is a Preference unde Edit→Preferences→General which ould automatically open the PDFs from the last sesssion as you Open the Acrobat / Reader application. Here is more info on that : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/whats-new.html#PreferencetoreopenPDFsfromthelastAcrobatsession

    Hope this resolves your concern ?

  5. Add authoring "modes" (desktop vs. mobile) to the JavaScript editor so that the syntax checker will alert the form author when JavaScript objects, properties, or methods in their code are not supported on Adobe viewers on mobile devices.

  6. I would like to open a the same book twice , and that is to view different pages of the same book,
    it is helpful while studying a book and wanting to quick reread a paragraph from another chapter

    trying to open the same pdf for the second time will only send me to the already open window of the same pdf

    a side-feature,
    if you decide to add this feature
    sync-ing the pdf between both instances after editting would also be great

  7. i want some transient bookmarks that doesn't get saved after i close the pdf

    or another bookmark panel

    When reading a study material, i often have to go back and forth between pages / chapters to reread an idea the go back to the page i was in

    it becomes a hassle to look for the same spot i was reading

    ofcourse i can bookmark the page i was in but i don't want to mess with the original bookmark or the pdf

  8. Acrobat DC is an absolute PITA to use. It has no UX continuity with the rest of the CC suite, the tools are allocated to the vaguest of places and the basic functionality that is regularly used, Marquee Zoom Tool especially, are relegated to the top menu when they should be in the header with the page controls. These are tools that are regularly used, unlike the '-' and '+' buttons and search tool that are in clear view.

    It's a pointless, redundant redesign that causes more problems and waste of time than it actually serves. Bring back the layout…

  13. The pdf to word conversion is not much superior compared to other sites such as ilovepdf.com. There are various spelling errors in conversion from pdf to doc (Mac User). Please improve this aspect. The OCR is also poor (take a cue from apps such as pen to print).

  14. Hello, I recently installed the Acrobat Firefox add on. Here are the issues:

    1. it takes an enormous amount of time for the conversion process to complete

    2. As you will see in the attached screencast, the "open pdf in acrobat" option is turned off, yet acrobat application opens anyway. either way, you will see that i'm logged into the account and logged in to the document icloud.

  15. Split a scanned PDF page in half (into two pages) would be great feature!

    This feature can be included in the latest updates?

  17. When I am using any software other than Illustrator, I cannot seem to publish a PDF smaller than 1 inch. I am working on labels and I have a label that is 5 inches wide by .85 inch high and the PostScript Custom Page Size Definition has a min of 1 inch by 1 inch. The only way for me to create this label was in Illustrator. I used BarTender to create barcode labels and publish them to PDF, but I can't publish this label. I don't understand why you would have a minimum publish size, especially if PDF's are…

  18. At file access problems while open last session (2nd menu entry in file menu) acrobat shows an pop-up notice only telling there is a problem (s. attached image, German version) but not showing which file this error-pop-up belongs to.
    Hence, the user is less informed to look for the problem and probably open the file manually.
    In case of more then one file having an actual access problem a Summary and a "try again" option would be very helpful.
    Belongs to Acrobat Pro DC 2019.012.20035.4663.

  19. The Translation of the newly introduced function "open last session" in the actual (2019.012.20035.4663) German GUI is "PDFs auf letzter Sitzung öffnen" the better Translation would be "PDFs aus letzter Sitzung öffnen".
    You see the typo ?

  20. In the latest Update for Acrobat, 19.012.20036, Distiller broke all our Workflows! Distiller renamed the Input and Output folders on our German MacOS Installation from "In" and "Out" to "Nach innen" and "Nach außen". It seems to get somehow translated automatically, since "In" and "Out" correspond to the translations the folders now have. The Problem ist, we are working with scripts to check those folders, and those are now not working anymore! This needs to be fixed ASAP! Also, the "ß" in the "Nach außen" is a big problem when working with network shares, as this is a special character…
