  2. Hello

    We are currently using the latest version of Adobe Reader but cannot find the line layer command. Also, when we open more than one PDF, switching between tabs becomes very bad. I request your help regarding this issue.The attached image belongs to the previous version. Kind regards

  3. Save advance search results in a pdf file to enable further treatment of the output.
    Ex: I searched a certain value in lab test results files. When reviewing the results of the advanced search I wanted to output only those selected lines in a new file, which currently is not possible.

  4. I think adding a feature to spell check all content within a PDF would be greatly beneficial for everyone. Our company uses spell check within Word all the time to ensure no egregious errors are present, but when documents are pulled into artwork, we then lose that ability to do a spell check. Many companies work strictly out of Acrobat for most of their process, but the only thing spell check is able to review on the artwork is comments. If it could review all content, it would help save errors in printing which would save companies money. If you…

  5. Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Open "Send"-tab in Adobe Sign
    2. Use the classic experience
    3. Upload about 10 to 15 files
    4. Try to sort it

    Environment:
    Windows 10 Version 22H2 (Build 19045.4529)
    Microsoft Edge Version 126.0.2592.81 (64-Bit)

    Expected result:
    1. Files don't overlay the UI-elements
    2. File-container adds scrollbar and can be scrolled if attached files take up more space than the container is large
    3. Files can be sorted

    Observed result:
    1. Files overlay UI-elements (looks like overflow visible)
    2. No scrollbar is added
    3. Files can't be sorted in the part that overlays…

  6. Dear acrobat service,
    I recently purchased a new laptop (Dell XPS 13). After downloading acrobat reader (the free version) I observed something unusual. Certain PDF files (The ones that are fill-in forms or with digital signatures exc...), when opened, glitch and all pages move, random windows closed exc... basically the laptop has its own life without me controlling anything of that. I tried to uninstall and re-install the software. I contacted the Dell support that made me try these commands, one by one, on the prompt:
    sfc /scannow

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

    DISM /Online…

  7. I download the acrobatproDC_dlm disk image on my Macbook Pro running 10.12.5 using the Chrome browser.
    This download proceeds normally.

    After mounting the disk image and starting the installer app, it fails as 29% saying: "Safari must be closed in order to proceed". This comes up in a dialog box with Retry and Close buttons. Retry always fails with the same error message. Close, of course, closes the installer.

    The trouble is that Safari is not running!

    I finally figured out that Adobe Acrobat Reader DC was running and this was the cause of the installation failure.

    Please correct the…

  8. A number of people continue to think it's a "bug" rather than a "feature" that the pan tool selects images & text by default in Acrobat DC. And they ought to be right, this is not a desirable feature for a pan tool, vice a select tool. In fact, it's why you have a select tool in the first place: to select images & text.

    Pan tools PAN, as allow you to navigate through the document by clicking & dragging. This feature is literally defeated by having it select images and text when you click & drag.…

  10. Ever since getting Adobe Acrobat DC Pro (version 2019.010.20100) on a new Windows 10 64-bit Enterprise client , any time I open a PDF to do anything (edit, PDF, Organize Pages, or just leave the PDF open without selecting any tool), I have about 45 seconds before Acrobat locks up and is unresponsive. Every time I have to close the program. I have to go to another workstation running Windows 7 Professional SP1 and use Acrobat Pro 2015.006.30456, which runs flawlessly. Do I have to make a request to roll my machine back to Windows 7 in order to solve…

  11. I received an Acrobat file in regards to our building strata company and it is unreadable in Adobe Acrobat DC 2015, but is perfectly readable in Microsoft Edge. Not properly readable with Firefox. I believe it is the result of combined Acrobat files.

    Maybe Adobe can fix this problem.

  12. I first generated my pdf with automated bookmarks.
    I then added a few pages and gave them bookmarks manually.

    When I try to edit these different bookmarks at the same time by selecting them both and right clicking to get the properties window, the program pops up the error message "Adobe has stopped working."

    The only way to edit these different bookmarks is by not selecting the different types at the same time.

    OS: Windows 8.1 Enterprise

    Expected result: I would like the properties window to open when different bookmark types are selected.

    Observed result: The program throws…

  13. Since the Adobe Acrobat Update in December with version 23.008.2042x, our
    coworkers reporting Adobe Acrobat crashes.

    Steps to reproduce the issue:
    We found out, it is only, when opening the pdf and click instant a linked document (another pdf) on a fileshare, so that you hover the link, it does not display the full URL.

    Expected result:
    Opening the hyperlink / another document.

    Observed result
    If you wait around 3-5 seconds, and the mouse hover shows the full link, than Adobe does not crash, and asks with security dialog, if you want to open this file.

  14. If you're using the darkmode, all the images turning to black and white. It is unpractical if you're reading a paper with some color-coded diagrams in it.
    Suggestion: implement an option, do change the behavior of the darkmode.

  16. I have a major problem with the Date of Signing field.
    Because I work in a regulated industry, all our documents are controlled and therefore must go through an approval process before they can be released. The previous version of esign allowed the text size of the Date of Signing to be controlled with the box size so I could fit the date inside the document field. The new version puts date of a standard size font into the space I designate, regardless of how small/large I make the box. The result is that the date is cut off the…

    1. Unable to remove Summary page from first pages.

    2. Ability to delete both Summary page and Compare Results using Organize Pages.
      I can delete the Compare Results page using Organize Pages, but the Summary page is not visible in Organize pages, even though it still exists with the other pages.

    3. There is no need to share pages like Summary page and Compare Results with coworkers. These extra 2 pages extend the document unnecessarily. I'm not the only one looking for such a solution - I found the following posts in Adobe Community:

  17. This issue relates to a feature request which I will submit separately. In the meantime, here is what I posted about this problem in the Acrobat Pro "Editing & Exporting PDFs" forum:

    As described in a related "PDF Page Size" message thread, I am needing to change the font color of all - or a specified range of - pages within a 200-page PDF file, from dark grey to black. As stated in that separate thread:

    In experimenting with changing the font color in a fully-justified three-column text document, in Acrobat Pro XI (Windoze 7 Professional), I am having disappointing …

    This is how Acrobat is designed to work and currently we do not have any plans to change it.

  18. The blue ribbon that prompts me to apply unapplied redactions is a major inconvenience. (See: Adobe Acrobat blue ribbon.PNG)

    I use Adobe Acrobat to redact information from large documents. I can spend weeks assessing and redcating the same document. I do not apply the redactions until I am finished, because:

    1/ I need to be able to refer to content that is being redacted throughout the assessment process.

    2/ I need to keep a copy of the document with unapplied redactions.

    3/ Sometimes I need to be able to undo previously made redactions.

    Prompting me to apply redactions when I…
