Password Protected Documents Need E-signature Capability
To be able to upload password protected documents for e-signature. They are protected so they will not be changed in the review process without parties knowledge. Protecting BEFORE signature, is just as important as after. In a large company, the password cannot be shared with lots of workers or the process becomes unsecure.

Step-by-Step Guide to Brake Pads Replacement
Brake pads are one of the most critical components in your vehicle’s braking system. Over time, they wear down and need to be replaced to ensure your car stops safely. While this might seem like a job for a professional mechanic, it’s actually something you can do yourself with the right tools and knowledge. This step-by-step guide will walk you through the process of replacing your brake pads, saving you money and giving you a better understanding of your vehicle’s maintenance needs.
Tools and Materials You’ll Need:
Before you begin, gather the following tools and materials:
- New brake pads (specific to your vehicle’s make and model)
- Jack and jack stands
- Lug wrench
- C-clamp or brake caliper tool
- Socket and ratchet set
- Torque wrench
- Brake cleaner
- Gloves and safety glasses
- Wheel chocks
Having the right tools on hand is essential for a smooth process. Double-check that the brake pads you’ve purchased match your vehicle to avoid any issues during installation.
Step 1: Prepare Your Vehicle
Start by ensuring your car is in a safe position. Park on a flat, level surface and engage the parking brake to prevent the vehicle from rolling. Place wheel chocks behind the rear wheels for added security.
Next, use a lug wrench to slightly loosen the lug nuts on the wheels where you’ll be replacing the brake pads. Don’t remove them entirely just yet — loosening them now will make it easier to remove the wheel once the car is lifted.
With the lug nuts loosened, it’s time to lift your vehicle. Position the jack under the car’s designated jack points (refer to your owner’s manual if you’re unsure where these are) and raise the car until the wheel is off the ground. Once lifted, place jack stands under the car to securely support it. Lower the car onto the jack stands, ensuring it’s stable before moving forward.
Safety Tip:
Never rely solely on a jack to support your vehicle while working underneath it. Always use jack stands for added safety.
Step 2: Remove the Wheel
With the car securely lifted, finish removing the loosened lug nuts and take off the wheel. Set the wheel aside in a safe place, as you’ll need to reinstall it later. Removing the wheel exposes the brake caliper and rotor, giving you access to the brake pads.
Step 3: Remove the Brake Caliper
The brake caliper is the component that houses the brake pads. To access the pads, you’ll need to remove the caliper. Locate the caliper bolts on the back of the caliper. Using a socket and ratchet, carefully remove these bolts.
Once the bolts are removed, gently slide the caliper off the rotor. Be careful not to let the caliper hang by the brake line, as this can cause damage. Instead, use a bungee cord to hang the caliper from the suspension, or rest it on a nearby surface.
Pro Tip:
Before removing the old brake pads, take a moment to observe their positioning. This will help when it’s time to install the new pads.
Step 4: Remove Old Brake Pads
With the caliper removed, you can now slide the old brake pads out of the caliper bracket. Take a moment to inspect them for wear. If the pads are worn unevenly, this could indicate issues with your brake system that may need attention beyond just replacing the pads.
Step 5: Compress the Caliper Piston
Before you can install the new brake pads, you’ll need to compress the caliper piston. This is necessary because the new pads are thicker than the worn-out ones, and the piston needs to be retracted to make space.
Use a C-clamp or a brake caliper tool to slowly compress the piston back into the caliper. Be sure to go slowly and carefully to avoid damaging the caliper. This step is crucial for ensuring that the new pads will fit correctly and function properly.
After compressing the piston, it’s a good idea to spray the caliper with brake cleaner to remove any dirt or debris.
Step 6: Install New Brake Pads
Now it’s time to install the new brake pads. Slide them into the caliper bracket, making sure they’re properly aligned and seated. Once the new pads are in place, reposition the brake caliper over the rotor and pads.
Reinstall the caliper bolts, tightening them securely. If you have a torque wrench, use it to tighten the bolts to the manufacturer’s recommended torque specifications. This ensures that the caliper is properly secured.
Step 7: Reinstall the Wheel
With the new brake pads in place and the caliper securely reinstalled, it’s time to put the wheel back on. Align the wheel with the hub and hand-tighten the lug nuts to hold it in place.
Use the jack to lift the vehicle slightly, just enough to remove the jack stands. Carefully lower the car back to the ground. Once the car is fully lowered, use a torque wrench to fully tighten the lug nuts in a crisscross pattern. This ensures even pressure and proper wheel alignment.
Step 8: Test the Brakes
Before hitting the road, it’s crucial to test the brakes. Start by pumping the brake pedal a few times while the car is still stationary. This helps seat the new pads against the rotor.
Next, take your car for a short test drive in a safe area. Listen for any unusual noises and ensure that the brakes feel firm and responsive. If everything checks out, you’ve successfully replaced your brake pads!

Please allow use older versions of the app in Creative Cloud, like other Creative Cloud apps have, Version 24.1 is Broken.
Version 24.1 is Broken. It has crashed 9 times today. This happens when scrolling documents, tabbing into documents and even when opening documents. I am not even using any of the special features. This is ruining my workflow and honestly am about to look for an alternative PDF program.
Please give us the option to use older versions of apps like other programs do in the CC. So I can have a functioning version of the app. It was working fine before the update.
I didn't want AI in my program, I didn't ask for AI. Every big corporation is rushing to add any form of 'ai' to their programs to stay modern or help share prices, and it's just bloatware garbage no one asked for.
Adobe is so out of touch, and everyday I am thinking of switching to and learning alternatives.

AutoSave Files to OneDrive or other server products
Provide an autosave feature that automatically saves an Adobe Acrobat file to my one drive or other server folders, just like is available in Windows products every few minutes. My PC sometimes crashes, or I accidentally close the file, losing all my work.
I remember this feature being available to auto-save to the Adobe Cloud, but it overwhelmed the Adobe server space.

Send PDF as a file using email like the older versions of Adobe
It's really simple, when you select share and email just have an option to send the actual file rather than a link no one can access. Just like in the old days when we could actually get work done using Adobe.

share link popup broken
I am running the most updated Adobe Acrobat Pro:
Architecture: arm64
Processor: Apple M1
Build: 24.2.20964.0
AGM: 7.1.5
CoolType: 9.1.0
JP2K: 4.0.2.54782
I used to be able to use the "share" button on the top right to upload the file to my Adobe cloud storage and get the link in one click, but now I get a popup window with skewed and blurry text.
(I know I can share the whole document directly from InDesign, but I only want to send one page of a multi-page document to my client for a quick check, so I do not want to share the whole document from InDesign.)
This issue has persisted for a couple of months. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing it, but that hasn't helped.I am running the most updated Adobe Acrobat Pro:

Add/ allow user to resize/ change width
Comment Pane: Add/ allow user to resize/ change width of Comment Pane. -
*This is a f/u to previous posts (2021 and older) regarding the width of the Comment Pane.
PLEASE add/ allow user to resize/ change the width of Comment Pane.
Reason? Because each computer monitor, laptop, or tablet have different screen sizes; AND each user have varying degrees of space between actual monitor and eyes (think ergonomic devices, individuals with vision impairments.) Depending on these factors, the Comment Pane prevents the FULL VIEW of a document.
Is this an issue that can be related to disability accessibility issues under Federal regulations? => Yes.
Isn't it better to be able to hold the fridge door enough to see everything that's in it? Versus having to open and close the fridge door every time you want to check if you have a certain item?
Have I tried adjusting monitor settings? Graphics settings? Browser zoom settings? Document properties? Adobe Acrobat properties? etc. => Yes.
Do I have the most recent version of Adobe Acrobat PRO? => Yes.
Have I looked in the Adobe forums? Reddit? Google? .edu sites? And asked my IT personnel and peers? => Yes.
Thank you in advance!

tabs
When closing multiple tabs that need to be saved Adobe used to close in order from the last open tab all the way to the first open tab. Currently when closing the tabs, if you are on the last opened tab, it will close all other tabs, taking away your ability to know what page is being closed and cannot save a file name accordingly to the page needing labeling

Tab order in Adobe Webforms
Please would you arrange an urgent fix for the tab order to be amended and therefore sequential when creating web forms? Web forms is a new feature but this is a fundamental flaw which needs to be addressed urgently.

Option to open in new window instead of tab
Very disheartened to find that the new adobe took away the option to open new documents as separate windows. This is very inconvenient for me in my day to day work as I often have many documents open at once and like to arrange them and move them freely around my screens. Now I have to pull them out of the tabs separately each time which is already getting old. Please add the option back in to automatically open as separate window!

Layout changed on update and i dont like it
Literally everything is in a new place and I can't find anything. The stuff i need to look at the most is now way over on the side of my screen instead of being in the center. The icons have been redesigned and now i have to mouseover things to know what they are. Stuff i need is hidden away in corners. Completely un-intuitive. No way to adjust layout. It's taking me longer to do what i need and now i have to complain about it to you too.

Option to Remove Plus Sign "Create a PDF" Button from Toolbar
I don't want to have the plus sign "Create a PDF" button in the toolbar. I never use any of the three actions mousing over that button does, and I'm always accidentally mousing over it when I'm trying to move the application around on my screen. I will have to disable new Acrobat because this button messes up my workflow. I hope this can be fixed before the older Acrobat display is discontinued.

Regarding case ADB-35924396-K4P5 - Adobe Acrobat Pro issues
Regarding case ADB-35924396-K4P5 - Adobe Acrobat Pro issues
There are several issues that are intermittent. I am working in the web version because almost all the files I need to work with are in shared folders on Google Drive, therefore not accessible in adobe's desktop connection to My Drive.
Mac OS Sonoma 14.5, MacBook Air, Google Drive, Acrobat Pro and using the extension within Chrome.
Issues are all about Adobe stalling. Often enough that I gave in and called support but not at all times.a. using "Open With" from Google Drive on Google Doc and file never opens.
If I "Open With" Preview, the file opens immediately. If I click on the file and open as Google Doc, I can then print as PDF or download as PDF but then I have to upload the PDF back to Google Drive so this adds at many wasted moments.b. Using adobe for e-sign. Open with Adobe (and if this works), click on convert to PDF, and have the circle go to about 90%, then fails
c. Using existing PDF and trying to split. Selected the file, opened in adobe, selected the organize page option, then the split option. Hover between pages to split and identify the new sections. Click continue - eventually a message returns "something went wrong" - totally unhelpful help message with no analysis of why it did not work.
d. Using combine files. Everything is already in PDF. Select files by adding and then click combine. Once again, files stall.
What I have learned - if the file has certain special characters in the name such as "/", the files will cause a failure on combine.
None of the issues considered by security were true of the documents that failed. i.e. no special characters, not corrupted files, no security restrictions on the files in google drive, extension was active, internet was connected.

Pan & Select Buttons in Main toolbar
Please ungroup the Pan and Select icons in the toolbar. As an engineer who goes through dozens and dozens of PDF'd prints every day, the added step of switching between the two has become cumbersome very quickly. Here's the background: when I receive a D-sized print I need to be able to zoom in and then pan around, and usually do so quickly. I thought nothing of the change (once I figured out they were grouped), but it's slowly become annoying. There's plenty of space over there.
