Copying specific text out of a PDF often not possible
Often if I want to copy just a few paragraphs out of a text, it's not possible because I'm unable to select the few instead Acrobat is selecting all of the text. How is it possible to select and copy just these few paragraphs? Can you make it possible? See attached images.

Allow Text and Shapes (rectangles) to be entered directly into Form in "Edit PDF" rather than forcing the user to use Comments
The only option to directly enter text surrounded by a shape is in Comments - or go back to square 1 and reimport the document from Word.
Allow the text entered in Edit PDF to be covered by a shape with optional properties like transparency or colored border and background.1 vote -
Disable Automatic Field Detection when requesting signatures
There needs to be a User-level Option in the Acrobat Pro DC settings that enables a user to turn off Automatic Field Detection (AFD) when using the Acrobat DC Pro Request Signatures feature. Or add an additional dialogue box asking for AFD when the flow is initiated. It is very annoying when the new UI version auto populates fillable fields in a PDF when all you want to do is apply a signature box. This should be an option for those wanting to create a fillable form versus those that just need a PDF signed.

Bookmark height and bookmark text size
In Acrobat Pro, reducing the size of the bookmark text also reduced the bookmark height, so more bookmarks were visible at any one time. In Acrobat Pro DC, the bookmark height is fixed at a height that accommodates large text, so reducing the text size doesn't increase the number of visible bookmarks. For example, where I could previously see 57 bookmarks in Acrobat Pro (with small text), I can now only see 40 bookmarks in Acrobat Pro DC.
Having more visible bookmarks makes the bookmark facility more useful. It is easier to find a bookmark, and it is…2 votes -
Change quickly between Selection Tool & Add Text
Add a shortcut or something, that I could switch between Selection tool and Add text to write down side notes, instead of going through 2 phase which need to press edit first then add text.
Need a quick switch on that.2 votes -
I want to add text over an image many times. Every time I do it, I need to resize the text box. Can't we get the boxes to fit the text?

multiple people filling out a form including sender
to create a way for the sender to fill in a portion of the form after it's been signed. I'm thinking for Human Resources purposes. If my potential employee fills out the direct deposit form, the HR has to fill in the tax information, rate, filing status, etc from the W-4 prior to sending it to our payroll company. It would be nice to see a way to specify fields that the HR team needs to fill out after receiving the forms from the on boarding employees.

Fill & Sign - Send For Signature Bugs for Dropdown Fields
Major Issues with dropdown functionality when sending for signature.
To understand what I mean, certain features that work for text fields don't work for Dropdowns.
Example 1. - When using the Fill & Sign, send for signatures function text fields allow for blank unrequired fields to be sent for signature. Dropdowns do not. You must apply a value for dropdown to not have errors and the value cannot be a simple space.
Example 2 - When using the Fill & Sign, send for signatures function text field values that are pre-filled for customers are accepted and not…

Voice dictation to create and edit PDFs
Apple MacBook Pro has a feature which allows users to dictate text into documents. Please enable voice dictation for acrobat pro.This feature, which I'm using now to dictate this request, enables users, including those with disabilities that do not permit them to type, to create and edit text in virtually any field and form except for PDF files.

E-Signature field favorites
When filling out forms for e-signature we need a way to favorite our commonly used fields. For example if I need to access signature, print name, and date for all of my documents I should be able to have them in their own section so I don't have to toggle back and forth between sections each time.

Bring text to front
At the moment, I'm trying to mark an X in a box on a form. But, the letter keeps being hidden behind the box. I am trying to bring the letter to the front. Or send the images to the back. But, it's not working. And, in Googling for a solution, I have found complaints on this very topic dating back to at least 2010 (and continuing year after year after year...!) To be clear, if I play around with this particular form, I can find a work around. And I'm guessing I'll find a work around next…

Problem! tabbing from fillable field to fillable field, but the tab changes to a comment option! ??
Have been creating a fillable PDF. Go to test the flow and fill in the fields. Instead of being able to tab to the next field, when tabbing it brings up a comment and inserting into the base artwork for comment! How do I stop this from happening?

acrobat destroyed my text
It's the second time Adobe Acrobat Pro has literally destroyed all my text after I finished editing my file. I have to do it again now. If it happens again, I will cancel the subscription and find a good program, not this junk.

Help!! Now!! Need to fix this pdf and change some text inside of a box on the pdf.
I need to fix some text inside of a box on a simple scanned PDF, but my cursor will not place itself inside the box to make edits. Why? It used to on this particular PDF. For the past several years all was easy to edit inside of this box, or outlined area. I can edit everything else on the form except what's inside this box area. Help!

Acrobat Pro DC is running phenomenally slowly using the edit and form field features. We pay a huge subscription for what?
I am trying to add footers to a form which in Acrobat 11 was very efficient. Since being forced into using DC this capability has become ridiculously slow (15 - 20 secs to add 2 characters). I am using a 64bit 8gb RAM laptop. Paying lots, getting little.
