Office Save as Adobe PDF Bug: Synthetic Italics on Nonstandard Font Weights
Installed Acrobat DC version: 21.005.20048
Installed Microsoft Office version: 2105 (Build 14026.20270)
Installed Windows Version: Windows 10 Home (21H1)When exporting any italic text from Microsoft Office that uses thick (but not Bold) weights, the exported PDF erroneously contains synthetic italics applied to the non-italic font of the same weight. The font files themselves are not the issue--this problem occurs on Microsoft and Adobe fonts alike. Using FontForge, I have narrowed down the bug to the OS/2 weight class of the font. The export feature seems to give up on finding the italic forms of particular weights.
OS/2 weight classes <= 400 and == 700 work correctly. Any other thick weights (500 Medium, 900 Black, etc.) have synthetic italics applied upon export. If I change the weight classes of a Medium/Medium Italic pair from "500 Medium" to "400 Regular", for example, the italic counterpart is found and exports correctly.
Attached images:
- PowerPoint1.png: all weights of Roboto display correctly in PowerPoint
- Exported1.png and Exported1.pdf: with the original versions of the fonts, Medium and Black italics are synthetic
- FontForge1.png: the original OS/2 weight classes of Roboto Medium and Roboto Medium Italic are logically set to "500 Medium"
- FontForge2.png: I have changed the OS/2 weight classes of Roboto Medium and Roboto Medium Italic to "400 Regular"
- Exported2.png and Exported2.pdf: after updating the troublesome weights to have the incorrect weight class of "400 Regular", exporting each weight works perfectlyCould you please fix the export so that it finds italics for all weight classes?

Change the PDF document page size
For real - We're In 2021!
Acrobat Pro cannot change the size of a PDF document.
Only way to do that is to print a PDF copy.
I want to just change the document size (i.e. A4 -> A5) in Acrobat Pro and save. That would be great!
I don't want to go back to PS, Illustrator or InDesign to do that. I don't wan't to print another PDF copy to do that.
Just open document settings > change size - voila!4 votes -
Redact functions triples file size
I need to do a simple redaction on a file but it has ballooned in size just from adding redactions on a few pages, representing more than a 3x increase in its file size.
This now makes it too large to send where I need to send it, considering the recipient's file size limits for anything being sent to them.
What can I do to fix this!?
This is a terribly URGENT issue that needs to be resolved immediately.

Getting rid of blank pages created by double sided scanning of physical bundles containing double- and single-sided documents
Electronic bundles created by scanning a physical bundle with double- & single-sided documents tend to have a high proportion of blank pages because the person doing the copying generally finds it easier to scan the whole bundle double sided.
The blank pages increase the file size and make working on the bundles very annoying.
Currently the only option is manually removing the blank pages, one at a time and although it solves the problem in the long run it is an immensely irritating chore itself.
Adobe support on Twitter thought they had a fix using the 'Page is empty' function in Preflight but it doesn't work because a scanned blank page is not detected as empty. It would be really useful to have a fix that could detect scanned blank pages as well as coping with the occasional small mark such as a hole punch hole or a scanner glass scratch/smear.
At the moment with remote working as a barrister I'm getting typically about 10% of blank pages routinely and up to almost 50% from time to time in 200 to 1,000 pages of a brief or set of instructions.
I can't send an example because all those I have contain legally sensitive material, I'm afraid.
A feature that identifies these blank pages and facilitates their removal would be immensely helpful.
There would need to be a 3-step 'Identify. Review. Remove.' approach because there will be some pages that have almost nothing on deliberately and it would be dangerous if one simply hit a button to "Remove all blank pages". That would be too blunt a tool.
There would definitely be a demand for such a tool in my field as the courts in England & Wales have gone on to double sided bundles as of the 6th April - https://www.civillitigationbrief.com/2019/04/02/the-rules-they-are-a-changing-new-rules-on-bundles-from-the-6th-april-2019/.

Document Language translation and conversion
Acrobat DC doesn't have the language translation and conversion of document as required language.
Ex: German document to be translated English/any other language . Presently translation is done by online source or scan/edit text by google translate.
Better if Acrobat built this option for both translate and conversion pdf document for language.4 votes -
Permit all characters in email addresses for Digital IDs
In Acrobat Pro DC, when adding a new Digital ID, there is an attribute 'Email'. Please allow all email addresses in that field. Do not arbitrarily limit characters in email addresses to: a-z A-Z 0-9 . @ - _
Today I want to use an address, from+dsig@example.com, using a '+' character. This is perfectly legal in my email address, and I should be able to use it in a digital ID.
Beyond that, email addresses are no longer limited to a subset of ASCII Latin letters. Addresses in many scripts are now legal, e.g. Hindi ईमेल-परीक्षण@सार्वभौमिक-स्वीकृति-परीक्षण.संगठन or Arabic
تجربة-بريد-الكتروني@تجربة-القبول-الشامل.موريتانيا or Chinese 電子郵件測試@普遍適用測試.組識.澳門 or many others.How to reproduce:
In Acrobat Pro DC (2021.001.20135) on macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra, do Acrobat Pro DC… Preferences…. Signatures… Identities and Trusted Certificates, More… The Digital ID and Trusted Certificates Settings dialogue appears.
Click on the "Add Digital ID" icon (picture of an ID card with a "+" on top). The "Add Digital ID" dialogue appears.
Select radio button "A new digital ID I want to create now", and press Next >. The Add Digital ID dialogue becomes a form with 7 fields.
In the "Email Address" field, type an address containing a "+", or a non-Latin character. Fill in the other fields reasonably. Press Next >.Observed behaviour: The following alert dialogue appears:
Acrobat Security
The 'Email' attribute contains an illegal character.
Only the following characters are permitted: a-z A-Z 0-9 . @ - _Expected behaviour: the Digital ID creation process continues, accepting the email address.
Discussion: Digital IDs are stored in files with the extension .p12.
They are presumably PKCS #12 format archives. RFC 8399 "Internationalization Updates to RFC 5280" specifies how to store such international email addresses, and my own little address with a "+" sign, in digital IDs.
I have a Digital ID in a .p12 file, which was created by a previous version of Adobe Acrobat Pro in December 2020, which has "+" sign in the email address. Thus Acrobat's limitation on email address characters seems to be a recent regression.In Acrobat Pro DC, when adding a new Digital ID, there is an attribute 'Email'.

Extra line on a Japanese character that only gets printed and viewed on Adobe Acrobat
When viewing or trying to print the attached P1L1S1.pdf there is a character that is shown in the second image attached, that has an extra gray line visible only at certain zoom - like 400% - or when printed.
The issue is that the same file is printed and looks alright with other PDF viewers and editors - the only software with this issue is Adobe Reader one.
Can you please review this and let me know the cause?
Thank you!

Open PDF-Files via MS-excel (2019) Hyperlink
I have a lot of PDF- files in portrait format eg. bills.
When I doubleklick these files with MS-file-Explorer then Acrobat shows these in a standard Window. When I use Excel hyperlinks to show these files they maximize the window. This makes no sence with a widescreen monitor. So I have to dobleklick at the upper border to show it in the way I like. I didn't find any way to solve that problem. When I install F...t-Reader instead, It works fine.
So I don't think that this is an Excel based problem.
I think it's very easy for you to improve that.
Thank you very much for helping me.

Acrobat Pro DC - Sometimes Holds Lock on File after closing it
Hi,
Arobat Pro DC closes file OK, but sometimes appears to keep the file locked against changes in Windows (Win10, 64bit, fully updated May2020) etc
Win 10 \ Windows Explorer is prevented from modifying the parent folder name (for example).
Does not always happen. Closing Acrobat Pro DC appears to release the file (in that it allows changes to the filepath etc using Windows Explorer etc).
This is similar to issue reported usign Acrobat READER.
The Windows Preview tab is NOT showing
(that Win10 bug (?) is a known issue, but relevant here).Regards

Bug: Shadows disappear on Windows 10 explorer windows
Adobe Acrobat DC keeps turning off the shadows of my explorer windows. Changing the theme in Acrobat doesn't help.
Workaround if you encounter this problem:
- Windows key + r
- Run: sysdm.cpl
- Advanced
- on Performance -> Settings
- Under Visual Effects tab -> Show shadows under windows -> Apply
Probably repeat after restarting Acrobat

Merge odd- and even-numbered scanned pages into a single document in the correct order
When scanning a double-sided document in a non-duplex scanner, you end up with two separate PDFs - one for the odd-numbered pages and one for the even-numbered pages. Combining them in Acrobat Pro creates a single document with the pages in the order "1-3-5-7-....2-4-6-8-...", meaning that we have to manually move all of the pages into the correct order, which is not feasible for hundred-page long documents. We need a 'combine' function that automatically interleaves the pages so that they end up in the order "1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-..".

Redline, Strikethrough and Track Changes
Need the ability to redline, add formatted text (just like track changes in MS Word) and easily and efficiently strikethrough. In the update as of April 2021 it is a lot of different clicks to configure a redline, strikethrough, adding text and comments. Right now you have to create a redline from scratch and confirgure text when it should be automatic or done with one click.
From a legal doc standpoint this would make docs easier and more efficient to collaborate on and easier to share instead of converting PDFs to Word docs, tracking changes and converting back to a PDF to share.
If there is software or a feature that does this, please let me know.
Thank you.

allow highlight colour when searching to be changed
When you search a document, the found instances are highlighted in a grey blue colour that is very hard to notice. This defeats the purpose of a search function. Either the colour should be changed to something brighter or the user should be able to change the colour in settings.
