  2. Hello, When I access my PDF file all text and numbers are changed to symbols. I have checked and all programs are up to date and I have cleared all my cookies and caches of data. But the issue continues. What can I do to correct this? Thank you.

  3. When I save out a PDF form to File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools, which includes all the necessary elements for 508 compliance, including table summaries, the resultant Reader enabled file has the table summaries deleted.

    Thus it is impossible to get the final form PDF to pass 508 testing, because now I cannot edit the final PDF in order to restore the table summary.

    Thanks for looking into this.

  5. Summary of the Problems: Search result snippets in an Advanced Search are often uninformative due to two distinct problems.

    Problem 1. The length of text snippet in each search result is too short.
    Problem 2. The search term occurs too "early" in the result snippet (that is, the term you searched for is the first or second word in the snippet--you see nothing that came before your term, which is often what you needed to know).

    Solution to Problem 1: allow the user the ability to customize the maximum size of snippets returned with search results. We have…

  6. When editing a photo in a newsletter for example, I only want to edit the photo, by using photoshop, only to have text recognition mess up the text from a clipping on the same page. So there's no way, or extra steps needed to fix a page and then we receive complaints from clients, because we didn't catch it. This was rarely the case with older versions. I'm sure you're aware of this. WHEN are you going to give us back out old editing capabilities?

  8. It would be great to send one document that needs an individual signature to multiple people at one time; receiving each copy individually once person has signed document.

    eg: Send ABC form to Bill.Cool@gmail.com, Sandra.Cool@gmail.com, Tricia.Cool@gmail.com as group email.
    Each person receives their own copy of ABC form...Bill signs form and submits, Sandra signs her ABC form signs and submits, Tricia receives her ABC form, signs and submits. Sender receives, Bill's signed form, Sandra's signed form, and Tricia's signed form all individually with unique signature in each one. As it stands now I must…

  9. Major problem with form links to PDF file since update 13.02.2024

    I have a large PDF file collection with reciprocal links to other PDFs, which has been working without any problems for about 20 years.
    Since the last Reader update of 13/02/2024 (23.008.20533), opening PDF files via a link in the Acrobat form button (Open file) no longer works. The file is only partially opened and the error message "No PDF file" appears and Acrobat closes without any further entries.
    If I select this file directly for opening, it is loaded without any problems.
    Note:
    The linking of PDF files…

  10. In the last day I was using Acrobat PDF in a document I was reading and adding commets with the text box tools. When I scroll across the document or close and open again, the text boxs appeared in different pages, duplicated. For example, this blue text was originally in the 30th page but when I opened again the document it appeared in the index

  11. PDF document reflow (Ctrl+4) is not possible for documents containing images with an alt-text. When the images are decorative (artifact) de document reflows normally. Is this a known behaviour of Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Reader? Foxit reader reflows documents with images with alt-text normally.

  16. When highlighting in the newest version of Acrobat Pro, one may select the highlight feature and then highlight the text, just as one would do with a physical highlighter. When using the "Insert text at cursor" feature, however, one must first place the cursor in the desired location and then select the insert text feature. This seems inconsistent with the highlight feature. I don't recall this being the case in the previous version and I'm having trouble getting use to the change. (One of many.)

  17. "W" keyboard shortcut should work to insert text. I used this every day in Acrobat 11 and was dumbfounded when I "upgraded" to DC and it was gone. Acrobat is much less useful to me (and anyone else who annotates documents for a living) without Ctrl+W, and there's no workaround in DC. There's no way I can be the only one with this problem.

  19. Allow user to put the signature / initial in a footer. We generate tenancy agreements and every time I have to put in initial / signature fields for the documents. It takes a long time to place the fields for 4 signatories and 30 pages. If allowed to put in the footer it would be great time saver. 30 pages could have initial fields placed in a jiffy.

    Thanks for raising a feature request.
    We would forward it to the management and let you know whenever we add this support.

  20. Now we have to change the tools to 'Prepare a form', when copying a fillable fields from an older form to the new form. This has meant turning off the auto function for the fillable fields!
    Turning off the auto fillable fields function was OK. But now I have do an extra step to copy to a blank fillable PDF.
    Would prefer to be able to copy and paste, and then progress with making rest of the PDF fillable.
