  2. With enterprise deployment of Adobe Acrobat. It would be nice to have silent or SSO activation when opening Adobe Acrobat the first time that way the person maybe just has to input email address if anything at all and be done. We are using User Named Licensing. We have 4500+ people and trying to have them understand all they need to do is type in their email address and tab to Enterprise is not easy. They try to enter email and password which doesn't always work and then get into a confusing process. This produces alot of extra calls to…

  4. Next, who was the genius that came up with the idea to, when text is placed on an image, the app automatically breaks up that block of text into multiple blocks of text, thus making any editing or relocation a real pain **********. I can't believe this ridiculous bit of code survived the upgrade to this new version. Please explain to your customers just how this feature is supposed to be helpful because i can think of no way that text placement and editing is better affected by this feature. This feature is nothing but a tremendous aggravation and…

  5. Currently, typing ~ is assigned in Acrobat to BOTH "insert text at cursor" AND "output preview." It is completely unpredictable which action will result when I type ~.

    I need to be able to bring up the "insert text a cursor" function without having to mouse all over the place.

    Please fix this bug.

  6. The new themes available are very distracting for commenting on documents. Please allow us to revert to something more closely resembling the Acrobat XI theme, or at least allow for something between the Light Gray and Dark Gray display themes, so attention can be more focused on the page instead of the tools. Also please allow the comment sidebar to be made more narrow, as it takes up about 1/3 of a view when viewing two files on a single screen.

  7. I have a bug that has been replicated on two separate Mac computers, with the same results, which do not exist on PC.

    To replicate the bug, start editing the pdf, use the Edit and the Fill and sign. Add a medium to large image and just use it for a while.

    Eventually the program will crash with the error report "Insufficient data for image" or something to that effect. I will send the video, and this has been replicated on two different machine with two different accounts and I also use this on my Windows laptop and…

  10. Windows environment.

    When using the Edit PDF Tool to change minor character styles (color, weight, underscore, etc.), the Tag structure and read order for the page the edit is applied are broken.

    For example: change the color of a header (H1) line of text. Return to the Tags Panel and all current page content has been consolidated into one <p> Tag. All the original Tags associated with this page are empty and placed randomly through the Tag Structure. Depending on page content, you may be unable to break apart the new tag single into the individual Tags necessary for compliance,…

  11. When Adobe sends/emails final signed copies of a document (that were originally sent to multiple emails), the copies of the final should be sent individually to each email address, otherwise everyone sees all the email addresses.

  13. When selecting print to Adobe PDF, there should be an option to print a physical copy to the default printer at the same time as saving the document in a file location. This is a very common practice for many, and would save much time.

  14. Bug: Create/Combine/Add files/Save As windows is blank, won't save. A blank popup window appears. If I click past it, I can enter a filename, and the popup goes away, but no file is created. I tried uninstalling (even though my updates were current) and reinstalling, but I get the same result.

  15. When a file and path name exceeds about 255 characters, which we have recently breached with backup systems, our archive PDFs do not open in Adobe. However, if we open them in other programs, they will open fine, but we need to be able to edit them, which leaves us having to copy the files out of their long path into a shorter path, make the changes, and copy the file back. If other programs have the ability to open long file paths, then it should be able to do so in a 64 bit digital age.

  16. It happens every time with the first of the files.

    The context is as this.

    • xuse me for using german menu names from now on -

    I am using "Voreinstellungen" -> "Überwachte Ordner" ( screenshot )
    from time to time ( on one monthly project ).

    I then have 24 ps-files in my "in"-Folder,
    when I start Distiller, who start instantly to work them.

    And then - as you clearly see in the screenshot - the first file goes kind a nowhere = "Beim verschieben der PDF-Datei Ist ein Fehler aufgetreten".

    Which is clear because - I think - Distiller…

  17. When using Prepare Form for making a pdf fillable form, you can copy and paste multiple fields by selecting over.

    Now, if you try to do it, unless you're zoomed in, it will automatically change to text edit. This needs to stay in prepare form mode...

  18. I ran into an issue where shortly after opening Adobe Acrobat the program would close with no indication of what was causing it to close. When trying to run Acrobat as Administrator I was shown a "adobelicensingwf_acro.exe" error (See Attached image).

    After trying to open the program a few more times I noticed that Acrobat would close about the same time as the profile picture would change from the default account to my account picture (See Attached image). It seemed to be closing the program after a handshake with the adobe web service. That reminded me…

  19. Typing CTRL-f or CMD-f usually produces a "find/replace" box, which works. But then it switches to a "search" box up in the menu bar area, which does not work. If I have two instances of Acrobat running (which I do to compare edited documents side by side) and close one of them, the "find/replace" box disappears and the nonfunctioning "search" box appears. It wouldn't be so annoying if the search box actually functioned, but it does not.
