  2. After OCR recognition provide a facility not just for correcting the text, but for meta-data labeling of fields and regions. This data would make machine-learned document management much more effective.
    For example, the automated extraction of data from Insurance company EOBs. You might argue, of course, that this is not in Adobe's balliwick, but I'd argue that this is a natural addition to your commenting tools.

  5. When I want to replace text, I right click on text and select "Add Note to Replace Text". Then I start typing. But the first few characters of what I type are always missing from the note that is generated. Please fix this lag.

  8. When trying to add Korean text to a document, the text first appears in tiny text in the corner of a popup box that stretches across the bottom of the screen. Only after one character block is finished will it appear where you are trying to place it in the page.

    It's apparent that the intent of this feature is to allow you to review what you're typing. However, the popup appearance does not seem to be customizable in any fashion, and the text is TINY. The effect is hugely distracting, painful to try to read, and beyond frustrating to…

  9. When using the "Correct Recognized Text" feature, the UI is cumbersome and requires either hitting Tab repeatedly or constantly switching between the mouse and the keyboard.

    The user should be able to cycle through multiple corrections using only the keyboard:
    1. Press "Correct recognized text"
    2. In the resulting dialog, the text entry cursor should automatically be placed in the "Recognized as" field.
    3. When the user hits Enter/Return, it should be as if the user pressed the "Accept" button on the UI.
    4. The next potential correction should appear, and the cursor should once again be…

  11. Text is overlapping in a textbox although I expanded the textbox.

    Fixing the text with spacebar and backspace do not help, it gets worse, the text scrunched up and overlapped furthermore.
    How I eventually fixed it is deleting most of the line then retype the text and change the font style (eg. bold, italic).

    It is counter productive. Please, please fix it. Thank you.

  12. Acrobat Pro does not always allow the text selection tool to actually select text (in OCR'd or otherwise readable text distilled from a Word doc or whatever). Quitting the app then restarting solves the problem, temporarily, but later the bug returns. There are threads about this on Reddit and other places. I am not able to produce a screenshot because I cannot capture a picture of Acrobat not allowing the selection tool to work.

  13. When I Request e-signature an editable PDF form, the format and all my fillable forms are gone.

    I need to print the filled-up form initially and then open the printed PDF and then do the e-signature thing. It takes extra steps.

    Hopefully, you guys can fix this quick bug and so we can go directly to e-signature directly from the editable form.

  14. Acrobat Pro - Version: 25.1.20435.0

    When I use "Add a Comment to Replace Text," my comment is automatically locked before I can type anything in the field. Please let me know how to fix this. I and my IT department have tried for hours with no luck.

  15. When creating a form in Acrobat Pro DC, fields set to be read-only and locked can still receive focus while they should be skipped and their contents be unselectable. This happens even when the PDF is saved as Reader Extended with "enable more tools", regardless of whether the resulting PDF is opened in Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader (DC)

  16. Windows environment.

    When using the Edit PDF Tool to change minor character styles (color, weight, underscore, etc.), the Tag structure and read order for the page the edit is applied are broken.

    For example: change the color of a header (H1) line of text. Return to the Tags Panel and all current page content has been consolidated into one <p> Tag. All the original Tags associated with this page are empty and placed randomly through the Tag Structure. Depending on page content, you may be unable to break apart the new tag single into the individual Tags necessary for…

  17. Many users have reported this issue that when they are using new experience while sending a new document to any of the signers. So when they select a field and they choose the prefilled text option to fill in the prefilled text for that text box. While typing the content in the prefill text, it takes time to reflect that prefilled text onto the main screen field. First of all, the users is not a problem, but there are people who are typing ad letters in a minute, and for them it is a problem. Please look into…

  18. Ability to copy over all form fields created into one PDF into another PDF. For example, an application packet that one would make into a fillable form, then - since many application packets have the same blanks and check box spots, be able to pull all the same fields from one state's application packet to another state's packet.

    Select the text box, right click and select Arrange → Bring to Front.
    Let us know if that works.

  20. Before it was possible in Comments mode to simply copy some text and paste it over text you wanted to replace. Now you must right click, select Add Note to Replace Text, then past the required text into the comment section. This takes so much longer. Usability and productivity has been reduced
