  1. It's a shame, that Acrobat makes it such a harmfully experience to lower the filesize of a pdf (coming from photoshop Artboard to PDF Export), that actually does nothing!

    Filesize goes from 18 MB to 17,5 MB or something (if it even works without errors you can't debug because you can't do something about it).

    In the end I have to buy and use third party tools like pdf squeezer (for mac).
    One click, and it shrinks the 18 MB to 600 KB! Without lowering the quality!!

    Adobe please work on your UI for Acrobat Pro.
    Or even better: Work…

  2. We create acronym-heavy PDFs at my company. We often create hyperlinks from the acronyms to the acronym list, but a better solution would be a tooltip-style effect where you could hover your cursor over the acronym and have the definition appear. This is done in HTML with the abbr tag and is quite elegant.
    I've tried to accomplish this with a transparent button over the acronym and using a tooltip, but this is incredibly laborious and makes the file size explode.
    Thanks!

  3. I ask my clients to provide edits via PDF comments. Even as a person with normal vision, it is hard to tell which comment bubble is presently active (e.g. via clicking on a comment in the side panel). On images or busy pages it can become like an advent calendar search. The contrast of the bubble background and its dotted border are inadequate (even with opacity set to 100). Contrast between inactive and active (selected) comment bubble needs to be vastly improved, perhaps by size and not just colour.

    I would use the PDF comments import in InDesign instead but…

  4. It has taken me an hour to get clear information on the options for purchasing Acrobat. I couldn't find any information on how to buy the 'perpetual licence' or what this entailed - nor what the differences are between the subscription and one-time purchase. I had to ask all these questions through an incredibly inefficient online chat. This information should be freely available and transparent for customers - companies generally do this so that customers don't waste hours and end up feeling vaguely conned before they have even bought anything. Apart from that issue, I suggest a subscription service that…

  6. I can't find any option category to make feature suggestions specifically for the Adobe Admin Centre. Please create such a category so that items relating only to the Admin Centre can be logged there.

  7. While the idea of 'star' documents available at anytime/anywhere is great in theory - it doesn't work. It times out - does not even work considering it was a recent file.

  8. What I’m looking for is a way to imbed the originating file name somewhere in the Meta data of the pdf for future reference. It would have nothing to do with the file name used for the PDF when exporting the original file. Use case: Often a client will rename a pdf and down the road I have to find the original Indesign file used to create that pdf.

  9. Since people often work on multiple documents and perform many operations on them, it would be nice to have one command that allows you to save all of them at once.

    In any case, when you get the warning that you are about to close Acrobat and there are many files with unsaved changes, instead of having a prompt for each and every one, you should be able to click on a checkmark that says "apply to all documents," like you have in Word.

    Thanks!

  10. Hi, when we crop page inside PDF documents, all content outside the cropping area remains in the document and you can access it in Illustrator.
    Other basic apps provide the option to completely erase what is outside the cropping area (see https://www.easepdf.com/crop-pdf/). Such a simple tool should be avaialble in the cropping dialogue window in the form of an option to tick for those who do not need to keep this content.
    And please, do not tell me about optimization and other editing tools: it should be there, right there, when you crop a document, without having to dig…

  13. Does Adobe have an annual subscription fee versus the monthly subscription fee.
    Please advise.
    With COVID-19, an annual subscription fee would be much easier to manage and thus ensure continuity of the Adobe service - thus avoiding be cut off / disconnected due to lack of a monthly payment.
    From financial circumstance beyound ones control, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Please advise ASAP.
    Thank you

  15. I work in prepress and have repeated problems with OCR trying to render scanned images as text when it is not desired. Obviously, there is a checkbox under Edit PDF to disable it for each document, which appears to be "sticky," i.e. Adobe remembers the last setting used, however it would be better able to turn the default behavior on or off in Preferences so OCR can be employed only when it is desired. Using Adobe Pro DC for Windows 2020. Many thanks in advance.

  18. I need help with changing the signature in the Fill & Sign feature. All suggested changes are not working. The minus button in the field is grayed out and you cannot change the signature.

    I have many licensed users that need to update their signature and we are not able to.

    PLEASE HELP!

    Hi,

    Can you please try the following :

    1. Once you enter the Fill and Sign app, wait for around 10 seconds.
    2. Now try to delete the signature.

    Let me know if that works.

    Regards,
    Sandeep Grover

  19. To have the similar printing capabilities in other platforms. I often work with large size drawings. I print snipets using an 8.5x11 printer. When I get to the outer margin of the page (left-side mostly) I can't print using CURRENT VIEW at ACTUAL SIZE. This is very frustrating. I have to take a 15-step work around setting print box pages/cropping to get what I need. Only then to try and remember not to SAVE the file and the cropped view.

    In AutoCad for example, I can pick my "plot" area using a window box (see files). This gives me the…

  20. Hi there,

    We have an intermittent bug where we have created headers in a document and then later, when we go to adjust that header (say it is in the upper left corner of the document), it causes the information/text to the right of it to just 'disappear'.
