  1. When a date field in a PDF form is set to "read only" and the user tabs or clicks into the box and presses the down arrow, the calendar picker still pops up and allows the user to select a new date. This was tested by setting the field to "read only" via signature, and by setting it manually as well.

    Tested in both Windows and Mac environment on the latest versions of reader and pro.

    Expected result would be that the field remains completely uneditable when setting to read only.

    Observed result when following the steps outlined above is…

  2. 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…

  5. There is javascript for this but you have to enter it individually for each field and it doesnt work for radio buttons. Please add this as a standard feature. The red boxes are confusing and misleading if a form has been properly filled in.

  6. 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.

  7. 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…

  8. Why are text edits confined to the current page? The capability to drag a text block to another page is a must-have. Ability to have text flow to the next page is much needed.

  9. Add the option to have the entry field under-lined...just the underline - not a box. Add the option to draw a line or insert a shaded rectangle behind a group of fields in Acrobat without defining them as "art" or "pictures" and requiring me to edit their dimensions in another application. You must still have the code for these features, since they were in LiveCycle Designer - their purpose is to improve the form filling user's understanding of different sections on a form.

  11. In previous versions the Ctrl+F box would appear and you would type your text and hit enter. When searching your next text using the Ctrl+F shortcut would automatically highlight the last search text so you could automatically start typing your new 'find' text. With the new update, it doesn't highlight the last search text, instead it puts the cursor at the end of your last text making you backspace the text or stop and click to highlight the text. This is a huge efficiency loss!! Please help!

  13. A suggestion for Adobe. It would be so great if pdf signature field properties could be configured to include the signatory's email address, or could be scripted to pull an email address entered in a text field in the same form, so that when the form is uploaded to Adobe Sign it already has signature fields with email addresses, and is ready to send for signatures. without having to type in email addresses and place signature fields. That would be a terrific option.

    3 Any version of DC, Mac platform. Have deleted files, the application, all Adobe software, reinstalled. Created new user profile. Purchased a NEW COMPUTER and installed DC. The problem is OS-, file- and device-independent.

  15. 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.

  18. 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

  19. 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…

  20. when adding a simple text comment, there is no functionality of right justifying the text (or anything other than left justify for that matter). It would be great to be able to do that, much like one can if one uses a text box comment.
