Text replacements
Mac OS offers the option of using text abbreviations to insert several words or entire sentences (text replacements). For example, "#--" becomes "delete hyphen". Acrobat used to understand and implement these abbreviations. Since the version from December 2023, this no longer works. Please restore the function.

scan and text recognition
The scanning feature and text recognition has become very faulty recently and can't even detect text on a document that has been converted from Word. This means that it is impossible to search certain words using ctrl+F and when trying to highlight a specific word or line it just highlights half of the page. Please could this issue be looked into as this function used to work fine.

Linking Multiple Text Boxes
I am in need of the ability to link two (or more text boxes) on a form that is single lined, but has certain answers that continue on a second line underneath. By linking the two boxes, once the first is full (a set font size would be required, not auto) it would continue on into the second box. A multiple line box doesn't work in this instance because I have two (or more) separate lines that are not the same width.
*Similar to how linked text boxes work in InDesign

Comment popup text very difficult to Select and Copy to clipboard
Open an existing comment bubble popup that has text in it. Select (highlight) the text. Now just move the mouse cursor slightly outside of the comment popup boundary. The text you highlighted becomes unhighlighted! I can’t even express how maddeningly frustrating this is. We have hundreds of edits a day that we need to copy the comment text out of Acrobat.
We are CONSTANTLY selecting the text, hitting COMMAND+C, switching over to a different program to paste, only to realize that either nothing gets pasted in or the text from the previous edit is still on the clipboard.…

Bug: LiveCycle Designer form not showing up in Acrobat Pro 2019.012.20036
Since the update from 2019.012.20035 to 20036 I cannot even view a PDF-Form created in LiveCycle Designer on Acrobat Pro Win any longer. Also the DataMatrix-Field that worked perfect with 20035 is not updating in Adobe Reader (where I CAN display the form!!!). On a Mac with same version visibility of the form YES, but also no updates of DMC on both Pro and Reader. This must be fixed very soon!

Ability to insert text comment without the extra click on the toolbar
I used to be able to click on the spot of the text I wanted to add text, and I could just start typing; the comment would be created automatically; similarly, I could select text and just start typing for the replace text function. Now I have to make an extra click, on the toolbar menu. For manuscript editing, this adds annoying time.

Comment Text too small.
When I double click the comment box in the right column so that I can select it (to copy and paste) the text becomes so tiny that it's illegible.

Make it possible to copy highlighted text
It should be possible to copy the text easily from a highlight. Right now, this is almost impossible. (One had to switch to the Edit tool). Why not create a Copy Highlight item in the context menu. Or, when one clicks on and selects a highlight, why not simply let CMD-C do the job?

Reinstate replace text by simply highlighting and typing
One used to be able to insert comment to replace text by simply highlighting/selecting it and start typing. Please reinstate! Now I must right-click and select "Add note to replace text". I use this feature a lot when going through my students' work or proofreading, often hundreds of times in a day, and it is taking much longer than it used to with 3 times as many mouse clicks (not good for my arm!).

Bug: Incorrect number format options for form fields - missing thousand and decimal separator options
Mac OSX, Adobe Acrobat PRO DC (Build: 20.9.20067.384717)
I am working on improving some pdfs at work, in one of these there are two fields for the user to input numbers (currency), but the field type number does not include any format that is correct way of formatting numbers in Norway.
I need the thousand separator to be space and the decimal separator to be comma, the only options in the form field settings is
1.123,10
1,123.10
1123,10
1123.10
1'123.10
not the one I need, and that is correctly format for most numbers in Norway (expected…3 votes -
Placing Monospaced Text in Relevant Forms Need to Resize More Sanely
I'm having to fill out some forms with the manual text placements and I noticed placing mono-spaced text is not really graceful to do.
Feels like it would help if it'd scale starting from the leftmost part of the bounding box for the first character instead of the center of the first character as seen
3 votesThanks for reporting this issue but this is not planned for immediate future. We will let you know in case we have any updates.

Fill and save form
I build all our business processing forms and agreements in LiveCycle Designer. Once the document is set up, I save the file. I then do a 'Save as Other-->Reader Extended PDF-->Enable More Tools (including form fill-in and save)'. This allows the end user to open the PDF in Adobe Reader, fill in the form fields, and save the completed form to their computer. This week, when attempting to do what I have been doing the past several years with this 'Save as Other' function, I get an error message "This document could not be Reader Enabled."

Highlight Tool should allow override to text recognition
Your Highlight Tool tries to be smart by automatically switching from freehand to text select when the document recognizes text. There should be a keyboard shortcut (i.e., hold down Ctrl while using the highlighter tool) to override this and use freehand. Text recognition is buggy and leads to weird performance when trying to highlight recognized text.

Date field
Hi,
Could you add a number of week (w) in the list of ACCEPTED VALUES FOR PORTIONS OF DATES in Acrobat Pro DC?
Examples:
- ww-yyyy (38-2020)
- ww-yy (38-20)
- ect.
It will be helpful for PDF files which contain date field in this format and it needs to be editable (manually by an operator and automatically generated in Acrobat Pro DC) each time when PDF files are opened for a print or any other job.
It is not possible to get this format of a date even with option Custom in Prepare Form/Format/Date/Custom.…
