  1. pdf documents not opening properly, with blank pages. It is worse if I try and scroll through the article soon after opening it. It will also loose text from the after a time not reading the document. This may be after the computer has been put to 'sleep' for a period (even a few minutes). It reports the error message 'Insufficient data for an image.' The new version is MUCH worse that previous versions. Please sort it out Adobe.

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.
    Kindly share with us your machine details and Acrobat version.
    Also please provide us some sample files on which you are facing this issue

  2. When I use PDFMaker, EMF+ images on Word documents won't be converted and remains blank.

    It's PDFMaker24 with Adobe PDF Library 24.5.190. I use Windows 11 and Word 2021MSO(2501 build 16.0.18429.20132)64bit on Surface Pro 9 (Intel).

    In the attached Word file, 2nd image is lost in "adobe_PDF_Maker.pdf".

    If I use "Adobe PDF" printer, the image is converted normally. But I like some features of PDFMaker and really want to use PDFMaker.

    Thanks.

  3. There are many reports and votes about customers not liking the new UI - me included. It is a load of rubbish.

    Stop copying and pasting your garbage response to everyone and actually take note of what we are all saying.

    You are basically telling people to just get used to it. If it is forced on us in future updates then I'm out, I'll be looking for alternative pdf software, and I'd encourage everyone else to do the same..

    I encourage all to Report Amits' comments as inappropriate.

  4. Problem: When doing an Advanced Search, in order to find out the page number of any given search result, you must hover the pointer over each individual search hit and wait for a popup of its page number to appear.

    Feature request: Show the page numbers on which those hits occur, and preferably in a column to the left of each search hit.

    Reason it's needed: This would save a tremendous amount of time for certain labor intensive tasks, for instance, manually indexing a book. To elaborate a bit: When manually indexing a large book (say, 500 pages), you…

  5. Not able to select area for export to the clipboard despite the PDF file allows.
    This is supposed to be a standard feature of any reader. However, adobe chose to simply make the reader an useless tool unless you really pay $.

  6. BUG - When using the Add Text Comment icon within the left menu bar, copying and pasting normal English text characters from a previously saved .pdf file creates illegible Cyrillic characters in new .pdf paste destination??!! Previous version of Adobe Acrobat has "PASTE PLAIN TEXT" feature (as all the logical Microsoft Office suite products have). Copying & pasting basic file and accounting information on monthly invoices from the last month to the next month. Please have qualified software developer/engineer reincorporate "PASTE PLAIN TEXT".

  7. A PDF document containing portrait and landscape pages is printed incorrectly on MacOS (tested on Mojave (10.14) and Catalina (10.15)).
    I attached a test document (A4B5MixedOrientation.pdf) containing 2 pages A4 portrait followed by 2 pages B5 landscape.
    Because of the different page sizes in the document it is necessary to switch on "Choose paper source by PDF page size" in the Acrobat print dialog.
    When printing this document the output is wrong for the 2nd page. I attached the PS output and a distilled PDF version of the output (GenericPS_2020_08_28_091748.ps and GenericPS_2020_08_28_091748.pdf).
    For isolating the problem I used the PPD-only…

  8. To minimize size and keep a good quality the support of AVIF pictures should be considered. In most cases it gives you just what you want, small sizes and great quality. Especially for archiving scans in color it's really nice, even for a mix of pictures, text and grained colors.

  10. I have Adobe Creative Cloud with Adobe DC et al. Up to today I have easily & successfully clicked the 'Convert current web page to an Adobe PDF file' icon in my browser tool bar.

    Today, it does nothing & doesn't generate the PDF.

    No updates have been done to my machine, system or OS or browser.

    When I try to launch Adobe DC & try the same function via File>Create>PDF from Webpage it generates a PDF with the title on the top line & the URL at the bottom line & an empty file. So, in other words, useless.

  11. This doesn't happen all the time but it's enough to be annoying and it doesn't just happen on one of our Macs in the studio. When copying out of either comments or text in the PDF itself, InDesign which has a document we want to copy into open, crashes. It's not the active application, Acrobat is but once CMD + C is pressed to copy from Acrobat, that's the moment that InDesign crashes.

    Anyone else had this issue?

  12. I am visually impaired and have implemented the Windows accessibility features that allow me to make my mouse pointer dark, inverted and larger, so that I can more easily locate the cursor on the page. However in Adobe Acrobat DC, your default cursor does not allow this Windows feature to carry over. Honestly it is terrible and should really be fixed to be at least darker, larger and bold so that visually impaired clientele can use your products.

  13. I'd like to re-report a general issue with Adobe Acrobat running on Mac. While viewing simple PDFs (<1MB), without annotations, Adobe Acrobat has 1 to two second delays when scrolling, painfully slow performance, the program is basically unusable.

    I'm sure you are aware of this, because with a limited search I've seen multiple posts asking for help with this, most notably:
    https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat/acrobat-scrolling-is-incredibly-laggy-and-slow/m-p/10652846
    The issues brought up in this post fully summarize my problem -- and BEAUTIFULLY surmises a likely cause of these problems. However, while a recurrent issue, I've seen very little interest from your company in addressing it...

  14. We get documents form a few of our clients in metric sizes. But we only print in English sizes. "Fit' or "shrink to fit" in the print screen works but it alters the sizes of the text and results in off center paragraphs and blocks of text.
    Would be nice if we could just go to a tool that would reposition the images and text to fit on standard English sizes.

    An alternate solution might be if we could reflow the text onto blank standard sheets (and resize images with handles) as needed.

  15. This has to be the dumbest user interface "upgrade" I have ever seen in my LIFE!!!! Tasks that I used to breeze through are taking me forever. The **** stamps won't turn off after I use it one time and only need it one time. I used to be able to copy text boxes and paste them. Way to foul things up!!!

  17. Please forward to your designers:

    Your OCR and optimization settings are all guesswork and generally produce counter-intuitive results in terms of image quality and file size.

    Not only are the results counter-intuitive, it seems there is no combination of settings which does not create a fuzzy mess of the text.

    Adobe is incomprehensibly inept at handling its own creation.

    NO response from customer for three months. Closing the thread.

  18. Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Open any pdf document in Desktop 1.
    2. Open an other pdf document in Desktop 2.

    Environment:
    Windows 10

    Expected result and observed result:

    If you Open a pdf on Desktop 2 but already exists an instance on Desktop 1 the pdf opens in Desktop 1. I think It should open a new instance in Desktop 2.

  19. Using the Optimize PDF to change PDFs for "Fast Web Viewing", removes text in images and figures. I've attached an example

    Windows version 2022.003.20282

    sample 1: See figure 7
    original-middleware22-53.pdf
    corrupted-middleware22-53.pdf

    Strangely, using Save-As does not corrupt the image.

  20. When sending a document to someone using the eSign digital signature feature, they have the options "Type" "Draw" or "Image". I request that we as the sender have the ability to remove the "Type" option. A typed signature on the resultant signed pdf file is not suitable for legally binding documents. I want to the ability to restrict the recipient to the "Draw" and "Image" options so that a real signature is captured on the document.
