  1. Since the last update (2023.008.20533) the buttons no longer work.
    If you click on them, a security warning appears. If you allow them, this message appears:
    "This pdf cannot be displayed in adobe or reader and the application is now terminated"

    Another, locally stored pdf should actually be called up.

  2. Right click, the icons at the top of the box for page rotate and crop result in an error message "Acrobat has encountered a problem. Some features may not work as expected." Others also result in this error message, it is VERY common. Accepting this via "OK" button causes a blank pop-up window to appear. To what point? It's blank!

    These are silly errors that should have been sorted before this was released (and no one has bothered to fix). Users are being used as guinea pigs! If it's a beta release than users should have been told. Reality…

  4. I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack in August 2018 but now, each time I try to convert a file, I get a message saying that my trial has expired and I must buy to continue. Please tell me how to fix this or return the money I paid. Thank you.

  5. Changing the default behavior of the "F2" is the possibly the most annoying feature Adobe has ever released. I'm not being hyperbolic, there was no reason to remap F2 to the help center when F1 already worked in that way.

    Additionally adding second key to the keyboard command to rename reduces the functionality of this program. When I'm editing a PDF, I am constantly editing text making me click "Ctrl+F2" is more effort and goes against common convention.

  6. When exporting PDFs from INDesign it defaults back to a old name even though you have re-named it several times during several exports. It should be naming it the exact same name as the INDesign file.

  7. Editing protected (NO SAVE AS) PDF... can PRINT to save form data, however when try to SAVE AS PDF get message need ACROBAT PRO to save PDF... upgrade to FREE TRIAL of PRO and still can't save PDF file. Attempt to EXPORT AS DOCX or PDF and same error message, require Acrobat Pro.

  8. Hello,
    Concerning the floating black tool bar that shows up when text is selected, it currently has only 5 functions (Highlight, Underline, Strike through, Copy & Edit text-images).
    My requests:
    1. Kindly make it customizable, so that users can add whatever buttons they like.
    2. Especially, make it such that users can add anything from 3-5 highlighters of different colors, so that I will not have to go through the tedious task of changing the color of the highlighter each time I want it changed.
    3. Kindly allow the "Add note to text" icon there either by default or as…

  9. Added to the many annoying notifications/ tips / contextual pop-ups/ advertising messages that Adobe has recently built in to Acrobat are notifications about "New Tools", whether in the quick access tool panel, on the application home page, or when viewing my online account/ profile at acrobat.adobe.com.

    It appears to be some kind of "tour" of new features that is commonly used in other products, but (1) most of the places this notification appears will NOT trigger a tour when you click on it (it just opens the 'All Tools' menu), and (2) there is NO way to opt-out of…

  10. Every time I follow a link from Acrobat that takes me to the Adobe website, I get a message saying that the page doesn't match my country. I have an account on your server and I'm logged in on the app so why can't you show the right country?

  11. The Combine files page has three clickable buttons and they are all dead. Nothing happens. Serious bug.
    Update: I installed macOS 14.2.1 and that freed up the buttons. But a second problem now: attempting to save a PDF of a scan results in the error message in the screenshot:

  12. An alert message "billing problem" is shown on the main menu. When you click on it, a new window opens asking you to renew your credit card credentials, when mine is active until 2024. Fortunately, the script fails and when you cancel it an error 12000 message is shown.

  13. I'm getting errors when reading PDFs. All different sizes, all different sources.

    "There was an error processing a page. There was a problem reading this document (109)."

    "A number is out of range."

    "There was an error while reading a stream."

    "Please wait while the document is being prepared for reading."

    "Out of memory."

    It's a brand new Windows 10 machine with 8GB of RAM. I uninstalled and reinstalled the program. How do I fix this issue? The program is essentially unusable at this point.

  15. Split to Top-Level Bookmark is not working in Acrobat DC. To "solve" the problem, the user has to uninstall Acrobat DC, then re-install. Now the process works, but only once. The user then has to repeat the uninstall / re-install process to use the feature again. Else, the user gets the error message "The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder." This feature MUST work without the user having to uninstall / reinstall Acrobat DC.

  16. Having to move it and manually close it every time Acrobat is activated is a productivity killer. Until it's fixed, I have to set another pdf reader as default. I think the prior version did not have this problem.

  17. Users occasionally face "SQL Server Error 233," SQL Server Login Failed Error 233," or "Pipe Error 233" when accessing an MSSQL Database. This general connection issue requires testing various solutions, as the error message can vary.
