  1. Request: Improve dialog for scanning settings

    Pain Point: When scanning documents, I sometimes need to select single-sided scanning and other times 2-sided scanning. It is cumbersome to have to click on the "gear icon" for document type, e.g., color and then also have to click on a very small option for 1 or 2-sided scanning.

    Desired result: Build in sets of radio buttons to quickly establish document type, color mode, e.g., color, gray or black and white, and 1 sided or 2 sided scanning.

  2. The Line Spacing in Acrobat DC is so much more difficult to work with. Its much harder to complete forms with the set 1.2, 1.4, 1.5, 2.0 etc. options. Adobe 9.0 Pro was so much easier to work with. Not all lines are equal. The option to adjust line spacing with by click on the line spacing icon was SO MUCH EASIER. Please consider making this an option again.

  3. Redact - please make it possible to use multiple replacement texts or images

    I want to use a few of different replacement texts while redacting one document.
    I would be very usefull when each replacement text has an own icon in the tool bar. Each replacement text has an other color on the screen, before the redactions are applied.

    Now I have to save the document each time, when I need to change the replacement text for redaction.

  4. Acrobat DC (Creative Cloud)
    Version: 2019.008.20074
    Windows 7 64bit

    This has occurred since last update.

    1. Click on file icon to open.
    2. Acrobat crashes immediately.

    3. Open Acrobat first

    4. File opens as expected.

    5. Close a tab within Acrobat

    6. 'Home' screen shows a frozen image of closed file.

    7. Click on 'Tools' tab - works as expected

    8. Click on 'Home' tab - shows a frozen image of 'Tools' screen.

    9. Unable to view any recent files via the home screen.

    Repair / reinstall has not cured this glitch!

  5. When I open a document, a blue bar with a "Read Only" message is displayed near the top and the only way to close it is to click "Enable Editing". Older versions allowed the bar to be closed by clicking the "i" icon on the left (what an idiot had such stupid idea???).

    BTW, what editing??? Which part of the word "Reader" don't you understand? Adobe Reader is a tool for viewing documents, not editing them!!!

  6. My experience with Adobe’s support staff has been frustrating. Often, no matter how carefully I ask, there appears to be poor understanding of my question. And the staff seems to produce formulaic responses, imstead of specifically addressing my issues. For example:

    I have repeatedly asked what computer configurations can best and most quickly handle time-consuming Adobe Acrobat tasks: OCR, placing duplicate buttons on multiple pages, etc.

    I’ve specifically asked whether more RAM, or multicore, or other configurations would speed up OCR of scanned documents.

    Adobe has not yet provided a coherent response to the above question.

    Many of the support…

  7. I would like to be able to have a default setting for the review date. I want to have no deadline for 95% of all my cases. But every single time I need to manually set it to no deadline.

    Also I have noticed that I get error message when trying to open the adobe tracker icon if acrobat is not on. So I need to click ok on both before I can open the tracker inside acrobat. But if Acrobat is up an running it works.
    I have reinstalled Acrobat but the error comes back after a while.

  8. I have been working with Acrobat for as long as it has existed, and this version is a nightmare. I have spent hours trying to sign a contract while my customer waits for a response. The sign icon at the top is greyed out. I am unable to edit, add text fields, add signature image. I may have to resort to printing the entire contract and rescanning it as I also cannot insert a page into this locked document. We do not need more features, we just need the ones we have to work.

  9. You may migrate iCloud Mail to Gmail either through a manual process or the professional approach. For the manual process, activate IMAP in iCloud Mail settings, then configure your iCloud account in an e-mail client such as Apple Mail or Thunderbird. Drag e-mails from iCloud folders into a local folder, and forward or import them into Gmail with the "Send & Archive" or "Import Mail" feature.

    Manual transfer takes a long time for big mailboxes and can fail to save labels, metadata, or attachments consistently. IMAP sync lag can lead to partial transfers, and Gmail import limits can necessitate batch…

  10. You can manually or professionally convert Maildir to MBOX. To do the manual conversion, use an email client such as Thunderbird. First, install ImportExportTools NG add-on. After that, place the Maildir files in the Thunderbird profile and use the add-on to export the files as MBOX format files.

    The procedure is technical, long, and not suitable for mass data. It involves Thunderbird installation, poses a risk of data corruption, and does not directly support folder structure preservation or metadata correctness.

    Another option is to use the DRS Softech Maildir Converter for Mac is a robust and universal tool. The software…

  12. Users should be presented with a list of features that they want to install so that they are available when needed instead of having to wait for the feature to install when first used. This is infuriating when you are on a deadline and management is screaming for you to hurry up. Also, the notification is too small and can be easily overlooked making the user believe that the app is just broken. Finally, the notification states that you will be notified when installation is complete, but I have never seen a notification in the several times I've installed a…

  13. 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.

  14. Mac OS X 10.13.6
    Acrobat Pro DC – Version 2021.001.20138

    Inserting a text watermark using the Helvetica Neue font enters a series of boxes instead of the text. All weights and slopes affected except, bizarrely, the ‘Thin’ weight.

    Inserting text using the Helvetica Font produces the error message “The font ‘Helvetica,Xxxx’ contains an invalid encoding. Some characters may not display correctly”. This error message appears on saving the PDF and every time it is opened in Acrobat Reader DC.

    Both fonts are system fonts and work satisfactorily in all applications (e.g. InDesign, Word) including Acrobat Pro DC, but not as…

  16. I've added new "Custom command" -> Inspect document -> Text to Curves

    I've added that Custom Command to Quick tools toolbar.
    The idea was that i have one click text to curves button.
    After clicking indeed the text changes to curves, BUT when you click save icon, it goes disabled (as if you'd think you saved the file). Yet if you reopen the file the text is text not curves.

    It only works if you go Save AS and then choose your file once again but it defeats the purpose of having custom command. It's then easier to just add…

  17. As of today, I, and several other people using this program at work and on their home computers, can no longer edit objects. I believe this is a bug as I was able to do this for years up until today. I am able to select the object but unable to delete it with the delete key or right clicking and selecting delete. Nothing happens.

    The only solution I have found to delete an object is to:
    1. Go to View>Show/Hide>Navigation Panes> Content
    2. Click content icon in sidebar to open hierarchical object tree
    3. Locate page to edit, click…

  19. Man. This sucks. Somehow I got 5 PDFs open in one Acrobat window. They are all lined up as tabs. That's cool.
    Now I want to "SAVE AS" ... there's no file menu available anywhere. All I can see is "CONVERT, SIGN, MORE" at the top bar.

    Hitting the HOME icon takes me to an indecipherable mish-mash of options to add comments, open recent documents (which duh are already open) or look at "Starred" files. (huh?) Oh, and the side menu now has a bunch of "cloud storage" options (which are useless... I just want to save the open file…
