  3. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. It would be nice to have an easy way to make the font, color and text style match that on the document being edited. This feature would be similar to the format painter option used in Microsoft Excel. The user keys the text edits and select a word or two from the documents existing text. Once highlighted, right click the text selection, and select copy format, and then they would select the text they added, right click on it and have an option to "copy format here" or something like that. This would keep documents that have been edited…

  9. The existing OCR function can create really strange interpretations on letters that otherwise look pretty clear to the human eye. Would propose that the OCR use AI language functionality support to encourage higher accuracy in translating the images to text.

  10. There is an issue with Adobe's printer dialog menu / print preview that, when you print to a copier that requires a copy code in order to print, the job doesn't come out because the Adobe dialog menu isn't sending the copy code.

    This is a macOS issue only as far as I know.

    This problem is going back to 2017 and has never been addressed. Please see this forum thread about it: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/pdf-print-jobs-aren-t-processed-with-user-codes-from-adobe-dc-or-acrobat-pro/td-p/9010649

    If you're not going to fix the product so that copy codes are sent through your printer dialog menu / print preview, at least give IT…

  12. In Sonoma when you create a PDF through the Context Menu (select a group of files, hold the Control Key > Quick Actions > Create PDF the results are not good. They are consistently bad and inconsistent in their results.

    Often the first page does not print or if it is an image, the image prints as a magnified detail (e.g. 600% of the original size), the middle pages print fine and then the last page will be a small percentage of the original - maybe 1/4 - 1/10 th the actual size and print off to…

  13. I converted Word 2013 file to PDF by using Save As PDF in Word. The entire file displayed large, light gray rectangles adjacent to the text on each page. (See attached image.) The solution to remove those rectangles was to delete comments that appeared in the Word document and save it as a PDF, again. There was only one comment in the Word file that got there by accident, but it caused hours of frustration for me. Once it was removed, the conversion worked like a charm.

    To remove comments, in Word, go to Review, Delete Comments.

  14. When editing a page containing a bitmap in Acrobat Professional using the "Edit in Photoshop" button, changes are lost if the file isn't saved in some period of time (maybe 20 minutes). After this time, saving changes in Photoshop and closing the page causes all edits to be lost. Before the time, any edits in Photoshop are reflected back in the page in Acrobat.

    This bug is particularly painful after spending 30 minutes cleaning up a scanned music image and having all the work lost. I've taken to doing a Select All and Copy just before closing each edited page.…

  15. I had a 42 page document that I needed to send out for initials & signatures. I carefully [for 30 minutes] prepared the document for sender + 2 signers, sent to be "prepared" and then clicked sign. It came back with me being the only signer in every place I had prepared. This despite checking and double checking the emails addresses were correct for signers 1 & 2. So I tried going in and editing the fields, which still did not resolve the problem. So I deleted the document and redid it...with the same result. I called support and…

  16. 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.

  17. Ever since the recent update with speeding up the auto-detect for forms, it is not detecting most of the fields in a very simple, basic, table and I increased the boarders to 2.5 (very dark) and it is still not detecting the entire first page of fields.

  18. Seeing the documents that are being worked and completed is great, but often I need to see the complete list of what I have so I can report on my status of documents is impossible. Please provide a way to download a list of documents by type or status either to an excel, pdf, word document so I can use it to generate a report.

  20. After adding an image watermark, Acrobat visually adds it the file. But the save button is not enabled until I exit editing. So if I close the file in edit mode I don't get the save changed file dialog. In addition, adding watermark to multiple pdf files doesn't work when the files are not opened.
