  1. When I'm searching my document I don't want to see results for Acrobat tools.

    In the image I'm looking for occurences of "v1" and don't see a single result, but see tools help. I'm almost NEVER looking for for that. It's a great capability but not all the time.

  2. As a researcher who frequently cross-references multiple PDF documents, I find it tedious to keep switching between separate Acrobat windows. A tabbed interface, similar to how modern browsers handle multiple tabs, would let me switch between open PDFs with a single click. This would also reduce memory usage compared to opening multiple full Acrobat instances and make the overall reading workflow much smoother.

  3. When using Ctrl+F to search a PDF, the matching words are highlighted in yellow, but once I click elsewhere the highlight disappears and I lose my place. I would like the option to keep search highlights visible while scrolling, similar to how browser PDF viewers work. Additionally, a search sidebar showing all occurrences with context would make navigating large documents much faster.

  4. Many technical PDFs, especially engineering drawings and CAD exports, contain multiple layers that can be toggled on and off. Currently, Acrobat Reader has no way to control layer visibility in the basic reader view—users must switch to the Pro editor. I would like a layer panel in the Reader sidebar so non-Pro users can show or hide specific content layers without needing to upgrade, making complex technical documents much more accessible.

  6. The Acrobat 'Share' window is blank - it's showing only grey. I've checked for updates and have tried restarting the program but this hasn't worked.

  8. Acrobat’s “Combine Files / Create PDF” tool does not support all file formats.

    Specifically:

    .msg (Outlook email files) are only supported when Outlook is installed and configured, and even then, they are not recognized when browsing a folder in bulk.

    .ica (meeting / calendar-related files) are not a supported input format for Acrobat conversion.

  10. Programm ist seit der letzten großen Änderung echt schlecht!!!! Symbolleiste fehlt, die ich mir extra eingerichtet hatte um schnell arbeiten zu können. Des Weiteren hängt sehr oft das Programm und reagiert nicht, vor allem wenn man in dem Dokument Texte hinzufügen oder bearbeiten möchte und wo ist der Auswahlzoom hin? dass man Bereiche schnell größer machen kann. Schade, echt schlecht geworden

  11. Bug: Microsoft Word Picture DISTORTED
    OS: Processor 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-11980HK @ 2.60GHz (3.30 GHz)

    In Microsoft Word, I added a picture and “picture format” appeared.
    Then in "Picture Styles, I selected “Drop Shadow Rectangle" (the fourth option). Everything looks perfect.

    Then, I created the pdf. Unfortunately, the style that Word created on the right side of the picture is distorted.

    This error began on June 5th.

    Before that date, the picture was fine as usual. Now it is not.

    1. Word document - fine
    2. PDF SHOWS STRANGE MARKS ON THE RIGHT AND BOTTOM of picture.
    3. PDF with "X" showing…

  13. 형광펜으로 키워드만 칠하며 문서를 읽습니다.
    때론 키워드에 메모를 적기도 합니다.
    그래서 형광펜과 메모를 분리해서 보고 싶습니다. 제가 기록한 메모만 따로 볼 수 있었으면 좋겠어요. 지금은 형광펜에 무조건 주석(메모)이 붙어서 제가 기록한 메모를 찾으려면 시간이 너무 많이 걸리는 거 같습니다.

  14. When opening PDFs from Outlook, Acrobat saves to the temporary attachment path. When I use “Save As,” I have to browse to my mapped drive every time.

    Disabling cloud storage didn’t help—it just defaults to the Outlook temp folder instead.

    It would be extremely useful to have a default save location (like Word/Excel) or a quick “Save to default folder” option, especially for users handling a high volume of PDFs.

  15. This is a bug. I can't capture a screenshot of it as it is with the cursor, but the orientation of my cursor is sideways on the screen. Additionally, when I try to make a form fillable and copy and paste the fields from an existing form, it generates all of the fields 90 degrees from where they are supposed to generate.

    One screenshot shows what it does when I try to highlight text. The other is what happens when I copy and paste fields into a new document.

  16. Tabs keep changing size and moving about when clicking on them, and it's really easy to accidentally close the tab by mistake - how do you get rid of this feature, as there's nothing under 'Preferences' - ie 'Settings' - about this, unless it comes under some jargon we don't understand. Also, if you move tabs about in a window, they tend to 'jump out' into new windows, which is ******* annoying. If you don't know what 'tabs' are, they're the rectangles at the top of the window, which you click on to move from one document to another. Tabs…

  17. I am Acrobat Pro subscriber under business.

    When using the "Request E-signatures" feature, the recipient field automatically caches previously entered email addresses and suggests them in a dropdown list. If a user makes a typo (e.g., entering darlyneo@... instead of darylneo@...), or if a contact's email address changes, that incorrect/old email becomes permanently stuck in the auto-complete cache. There is currently no UI option or keyboard shortcut to delete these bad entries.

    This impact users as they would frequently select the typo from the dropdown without realizing it, meaning the intended recipient never actually receives the document.

    Please…

  19. When I try to digitally sign a PDF in Adobe Acrobat for Windows using a self-created Acrobat Digital ID stored as a PFX file, I get the following error message:

    “Creation of this signature could not be completed.”

    This happens when I start the digital signature process and Acrobat loads the Digital ID / certificate selection window.

    The confusing part is that the signature can still be created. The Digital ID list loads, I can continue signing, the PDF is saved, and when I reopen the PDF Acrobat says:

    “Signed and all signatures are valid.”

    The error usually appears only…

  20. Allow sending Workflows in Adobe Acrobat Sign App.

    Our users only send documents via premade workflows, so are not really able to utilize the mobile app.
