  1. I get an error message "There was a problem reading this document (44)." I tried extracting pages, deleting pages... an hour of commenting down the drain

  2. I work in several files which all get marked up in a standard format (red boxes with an red x stamp to note issues that need further review or actions to resolve). All the mark ups from all the documents need to be closed before my process is complete. It would be ideal if i could run a query across multiple documents (like a whole batch of folders) on all the comments made with the same criteria options currently available in a single .pdf comment filter and it be packaged in a comment summary file that has links to jump…

  3. Please restore the scroll bar for the comments sidebar in Acrobat. The scroll bar is now hidden by default, but it's jumpy and hard to access. I now have to use the arrow keys on my keyboard to move up and down within the panel. It's become much harder to use in the redesigned interface.

  4. The adobe acrobat functions are amazing. I think the user interface needs to be improved. I think there should be a way to set a "default" opening folder. Start screen where it shows RECENT|STARS|SCANS. Also I think you should allow folder creating at higher level. So that you can do something "like" Google Stacks.

  5. After Acrobat updated to 2019.008.20071, my Enfocus Pitstop Tools have disappeared. I have tried uninstalling/re-installing both Acrobat and Pitstop. With no change. I have checked for an update to Acrobat but get a message that 20071 is the latest version. Enfocus says the problem is in Acrobat.

    When can i expect a fix for this. I need these tools in order to be able to work with my customers. Thanks

  6. Restore the function that used to be present in older Acrobat versions that allowed users to set the preferred 'Save to' folder location. When set, all PDFs generated would automatically default to this save location that is 'User Defined' This function/feature used to be present in versions of Acrobat prior to 10 and is a huge time saver and in many cases a necessity for frequent users. This has been a major complaint by many users over the past 4 years and this simple yet essential feature has yet to be restored to the current editions of Acrobat! For the…

    Thank you for the suggestion. We have notified our engineering for the same. We shall get in touch with you in case we need more information.

    Thank you for your patience

  7. The rotate function should be part of the default toolbar again! (I can find the "rotate view" button by clicking on View, but that doesn't actually change the document orientation, just temporarily changes the view). I'm sure it's there somewhere, but this occurs so often you shouldn't have to go even one layer down to get to this function.

  8. Allow users to permanently hide the navigation pane when opening all documents. Allowing uses to set this specific to a certain document is only slightly helpful and only to people that work with the same documents over and over again, allowing for a default setting for all documents makes much more sense

  9. Please either get the Preferences/General/Messagews from Adobe - "Show messages when I launch Adobe Acrobat Reader" checkbox to work.

    Presently, it resets as soon as I close the app

    OR

    Add a choice to "Do not show me this message again" onto the "Try Acrobat Pro with a 7-day free trial" popup.

    I have zero interest in Pro and if this persists (like all the other dev wet dream 'improvements') then I will be looking for alternatives. I certainly don't want another AI infection tampering with my workflow.

  10. Dear Adobe Team,

    I would like to suggest an improvement for Adobe Acrobat regarding the Bookmarks panel width adjustment. Currently, every time a PDF is reopened, the Bookmarks panel resets to its default width, requiring manual resizing each time. This can be inconvenient, especially for users who frequently work with PDFs that contain extensive bookmarks.

    I kindly request that Adobe Acrobat include:

    A setting to customize the default width of the Bookmarks panel, allowing users to define a preferred size in the application preferences.
    An option to remember the adjusted width after resizing, so that the panel remains at the…

  11. File management issue. Or UI issue.

    No recently opened files appear at all. Not in the Open Recent menu, not after I choose to show all recent files.

    Yes, even in the Home view.

    (And now the UserVoice form is not allowing me to post my report. Perpetual "Server Communications problems! Please try again.") message.)

    Slows me down a bit.

    In MacOS (Catalina 10.15.3).

  12. Please make commenting fonts lockable so that when you share a PDF, someone else can see your comments in a specific font. The default font (Segoe) is not great for in-depth text editing, as some characters, like curly quote marks and apostrophes, are not as easily distinguishable from their straight counterparts as they would be in serif fonts.

  15. A guided action seems to default to Save as prompting with a dialog box to save as, don't save or cancel for every file in a folder, rather than respecting the Save action step with the specified settings in Output Options and File naming section to add a suffix to the file and move on.

  18. Dear Adobe Acrobat Support Team,
    I am writing to you today to report an issue I am experiencing with the Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant, which is affecting my ability to use it for scientific and educational purposes.
    I primarily use the Adobe Acrobat AI Assistant to read books and scientific articles related to human evolution and anthropology. I often ask questions about different human species, their ancestors, fossil evidence, and evolution in general. These are all purely scientific and well-documented topics.
    However, I have noticed that the AI assistant refuses to answer many of my questions related to these topics,…

  19. Adobe Acrobat Pro DC crashes when reducing file size. I get no error message, no compressed file is produced, the original file is unaltered. This happens on multiple different files and is not associated with one particular file. Typically my files have been created originally from a word document (including images), and then have other PDFs inserted as additional pages which originate from excel and autocad.

    OS Name: Microsoft Windows 10
    OS Version: 10.0.18362
    Acrobat Version: 20.6.20042.371103

  20. When one crops a document, the "Apply to:" dialog preference selects between "Even and Odd Pages", "Odd Pages Only", and "Even Pages Only". This preference is sticky, based on the last document that was cropped. In practice, documents are uncorrelated.

    These probabilites aren't flat. To reduce user errors, it would be simplest to default to the setting users expect by default: "Even and Odd Pages".

    If one expects the user to check this setting every time, then it would make sense to play the probabilities, and default to the most likely setting based on recent history. For example, phone…
