  1. With security applied, I can still change tab order in a form

    This is a bug report, I think.

    After applying security to a form, I can still edit the tab order. I added a permissions password and allowed filling in form fields. After saving to apply the security, I opened the Prepare a form tools. From there, it allowed me to drag and drop to reorder fields in the fields pane, let me save my changes, and those changes were there after closing and reopening the file.

    Since I applied security this should not have been possible. But I tried it multiple times and in different files,…

  3. Bug Report - JavaScript Editor - TAB key to move text over exits the Editor

    Bug Report - In JavaScript, it's common practice to format the code to make it more readable by using the TAB key to indent text. This has worked fine in all previous versions of Adobe Acrobat that I've used. However, in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC, pressing the TAB key moves the text to the right once, as it should, but then the focus moves to the OK button to close the Editor. The focus should stay in the Editor so TAB can be pressed again to move the text further to the right. It is EXTREMELY inconvenient to…

  4. Comment text fades when clicked away from, no opacity option

    When using the add comment text tool the text appears normal when initially typed but fades when clicked away from. The support agents I spoke with said there should be an opacity slider for that tool however there is only the option to change color.

  5. Please add a change default font, size, colour feature.

    Can you please add the ability to let the user set a different 'default' font type, size, colour when creating forms? It adds significantly to the time used creating forms to have to change the font for every single text/field added.

  6. Cannot enter calculations for fields

    It is a Bug, not an idea.

    When trying to insert a calculation into a form field to show the new date (also with other simple calculations), for example

    var f = this.getField("Heute");
    f.value = util.printd("d.m.yyyy",new Date());

    I can insert it, but when clicking OK the field is empty and nothing calculates.

    There seems to be an error, snce this has worked befor – or I am doing it wrong, but I cannot see how.

    Any ideas?

  7. Change the text size/font style of a measured dimension!

    I think the measure tool in Acrobat Pro is very useful. But It is not possible to change the text size/font style of a measured dimension!
    I'm sorry, it would be very useful if Adobe put it on

  10. Date format from Adobe Forms not carried into Adobe Sign

    Hi,

    The date format using Adobe Form doesn't get carried forward to Adobe Sign. With the volume I am working with, it is just not possible to manually change dates in the form each time as there are several dates in the form and I have to send a large volume of the forms in one go. I tried using the script "Text1es:signr1:isdate(format=dd/mm/yyyy)" in Prepare form under Custom Calculation Field and it doesnt work. I tried locking the format and it doesnt work either. This is causing so much problem and…

  11. Reader 2021.001.20138 suddenly running form javascripts incredibly slowly and freezing

    A complex form that ran fine under older versions of reader, is now intermittently running some of the onboard javascripts incredibly slowly and appearing to the user as freezing (Not Responding).
    This does not always occur, and occurs during different operations (using different document level scripts).
    I am using Windows 10 Pro 19041.804 (most recent) and have experienced it on Reader 2021.001.20138 32bit and 64bit versions.

  12. Is there a way to scan a document for text without making that text editable?

    I want scanned documents to be searchable, and I want people to be able to copy/paste text from the documents, but I don't want them to be able to edit that text. I cannot find a setting that allows that.

  14. "Merge to Adobe PDF" in Microsoft Word Filename Field

    It would be very helpful if in the "Merge to Adobe PDF" function/plugin under Mailings in Microsoft Word to be able to specify a filename from the fields of my dataset. In other words, I would like to be able to have a column in my dataset that the plugin uses for naming files. It's horrible having to rename a hundred documents if you want to distribute PDFs.

  15. Not possible to edit text after saving files with active windows in PDF.

    Not possible to edit text after saving files with active windows in PDF. For example when there is active window where we should write date and then we are adding signature, then field with date is not active anymore and it is not possible to change date with EDIT function either. It is very flustrating!

  16. Why can't I copy the text just as it is in my original document?

    I am trying to copy both Thai text and Burmese text from a Pdf document. But these are not recognized languages in this Adobe program so it tries to copy them as English and makes a mess of them. Why can't the text be copied over as it appears in the original document? Then, I could use Google translate to change that into English. There is no need for Adobe to recognize the language being copied, just copy it exactly as it is in the original document.

  17. There bugs using the tab key in Acrobat DC when making prepared form

    Bug is in the Properties window. If you enter something in the Name field, select all, and hit the tab key to go to Tooltip to paste that in there, Acrobat jumps to the next Field in the order instead of the next entry.

  20. action button missing from prepare form menu in Pro DC

    The recent update to Adobe Acrobat DC (20.006.200042) has removed the action button from the Prepare Form menu.

    I am unable to add buttons to form like "print" or "email". When opening older forms, the print still works, but it is unedible the action you can do. The email button goes off to an unknown link.

    In addition, the DC help still list the old way to add and edit these action buttons without listing a new method to create or edit these buttons
