  1. When uploading a pdf file Adobe Sign recognizes fields but none of them are required fields. There should be a way to switch them all to required or import them all as required as the default setting. I uploaded a pdf that has about 50 fields that are required and only a few that are not required. I have to click 4 times for each field to make them required so I am looking at 200 mouse clicks to fix the form.

    It would save so much time to give a choice on the status of the recognized fields. Being…

  2. Adobe Acrobat XI Pro mailto link opens IE first and then Outlook 2016. Default program for mailto protocol is set on Outlook 2016 and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC opens mailto link on Outlook 2016 only.

    Reset Acrobat XI Pro did not resolve the issue.

    Please assist on rectifying this.

  3. In the IT sector, where teams often work on complex projects across different time zones, managing attendance manually can quickly become a challenge. Missed entries, inaccurate records, and delayed updates can disrupt payroll and project timelines. The solution lies in adopting a modern attendance tracking software that delivers accuracy and efficiency.

    Workstatus is designed to fit the dynamic needs of IT companies. It allows employees to check in from the office, home, or client locations via mobile, desktop, or geofencing. This ensures that every record is verified, no matter where the work happens.

    For managers, Workstatus provides real-time dashboards…

  4. How about moving all of the buttons with useful features out of the bottom right corner? I'm not sure how this is a surprise but when I receive a notification, email, TEAMS message, update message, every single one of them obscures all the buttons that have been inexplicably placed in one of the only high-traffic corners of a screen when using an application.

  5. otřesný vzhled, zobrazeno vše co nepotřebuji a vždy znovu a znovu a nevidím dokument - na co Všechny nástroje a další lišty? Proč jsou toolbary okoloc elého dokumentu? člověk musí prohledat všechny kouty než něco najde! Co trocha minimalismu při pouhém prohlížení? Nebo jak nastavit režim čtení jako default zobrazení?

  6. Every time I open a PDF/A compliant document, a toolbar message shows up (see attachment). The only way to close it is by clicking on "Enable Editing," to which you are warned about its consequences.

    It would be great if I could close it without Enabling Editing. It would be even better if this message only showed up if I tried to edit the document in first place.

  7. This is a bug report. Typically Enhancing a scan triggers an error message (which is attached). This error message at the very beginning of the enhanced scan. The path shown in the error message does exist. I've reinstalled several times.

  8. I have a selection (arrow) type of cursor set as default. In the full screen mode it changes to hand tool (which I don't mind). But when I exit from full screen mode, cursor is still in hand (pan) mode. It should switch back to the selection tool.

  9. Sharing documents via Acrobat is unstable.

    I quite often open the 'Shared by you' tab to have it load indefinitely and never show documents. Occasionally it gives me the message that there are no shared documents.

    Furthermore, often once I do finally open a shared document, I see the message 'Loading shared comments' indefinitely.

    The whole process seems unreliable, slow and full of bugs.

  10. When clicking on a hyperlink to access a non-Public document on Amazon AWS S3, the document will not open ONLY when the Adobe Acrobat Extension is enabled. When the extension is disabled the document will open.

    Instead, the new tab displays information similar to this example:

    This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
    <Error>
    <Code>AccessDenied</Code>
    <Message>Access Denied</Message>
    <RequestId>CWDX4APN7JERJ11M</RequestId>
    <HostId>gdptXjK5L1wsR5kPrPCEIbIsnY0La0PcyI6e/xrFA1QxA8xHW8LtvTDg5DPNSB5ubGVrJeBNhd0=</HostId>
    </Error>

    Access is denied because S3 is not receiving the Referer Header information from the browser to authenticate the request.

    This is a widespread…

  11. We have switched our email software to Outlook New. Since then, the Send function in Adobe no longer works. Previously, we could simply click on the envelope icon, select “Send by Email”, and a new email would open with the PDF attached.

    Currently, it is not possible to set Outlook New as the default email program. Adobe does not recognize it as an email application and shows the message that no email program is installed.

    This issue causes us significantly more manual work, as we now have to save documents separately and attach them manually to emails.

    We kindly ask…

  12. It would be nice if Acrobat was not so cloud dependent, not always needing updating, not always trying to install "helpers" on my computer, etc. Given Adobe's track record with security, I don't want my computer constantly tethered to your mediocre service.

  13. Tried forwarding using Microsoft Outlook, even though the file is listed in Adobe when the email attachment is added and you try to open Adobe says it cannot find the file.

    The idea of using Cloud Storage as a default is a bad idea, i do not want items going trough Cloud Storage.

  14. As a bifocal wearer, the default full-page display is RARELY suitable. I'd MUCH prefer that Adobe Reader pre-zoomed to a text readable level. I tend to end up at 150% zoom, but everyone's needs are unique, so accessibility personalization should be configurable. Maybe a simple default zoom setting or a smarter (AI?) learned one based on the size of the text in the current document.

  16. Almost every time I open Acrobat, whether on restart or wake-up, the locations of interface items changes. Today, "Recent files" is populated with the contents of my starred folder. Which is great because usually my starred folder is inexplicably empty, Today it's recent files that's empty.

    Regularly I'm greeted with "Bytes not Ready" when performing basic commands.

    Then I get some messages that are upside down and backwards! What is that?!

    Signatures weren't available last week but they're back now!

    As many others have suggested about going back to the old interface - Mine does that about every 8th…

  17. Admin Console's current Auditing system is fairly surface-level, it would be good to have more advanced auditing abilities. I believe every page that can be edited should have some kind of logging implemented and viewable on the
    audit.
    Example: We had some users who were being kicked out every 30 minutes because the default setting on one admin console which we didn't even know they were assigned to, this should have been set to the default "don't log out ever"
    we'd like to be able to see who changed that permission but it is unavailable.
    This is just one example,…

  19. The Home menu is terrible, and continues to get more and more cluttered with every update.

    First, why does my "Recommended tools for you" list, default to AI every time I open this app, and I have to click an arrow to the next page with the actual tools. I am so sick of companies shoving "time saving" AI down my throat that actually just ends up wasting my time.

    Second, I would love to be able to set favorite tools, rather than these recommendations. They are truly terrible. What are they basing this suggestions on? I have never even…
