  1. When using the "Add note to replace text" (insert and replace) commenting tool, it is impossible to edit the default color of the replacement mark using Properties. This used to be possible, and is still possible for other commenting tools. (Adobe Acrobat Pro via Creative Cloud on MacOS 12.6.7)

  2. All the editing tools are grayed out and not accessible. This is the default no matter what type of pdf I pull up. Even ones that I made using adobe. Why is this and what is the solution?

  3. Your update is horrible. I get the wanting to stay new but if you have a competant program why mess with it? I use this in the design field and the only thing the update has done is add time to each task.

    I'm about over it. I have been using this program since 2012 and cannot stand the updates to the point That I try to avoid the program. Before the update, you could select the tool, use it and then you would have to click on it again to use it. Now I am constant double clicking /…

  4. Within PDF's we often create notes and comments. The text font and size sometimes needs adjustment. Having used MS Windows all our lives we are conditioned to simply highlight the text, right-click and a pop-up box appears with "properties" listed. Unfortunately with Acrobat DC Pro "properties" is not an option. Now we must navigate 4 layers deep into the menu: View > Show/Hide > Toolbar items > Show Properties Bar

    The right-click for properties feature is widely adopted by third party software companies that want to create a seamless experience for the user within Windows. It is a necessary…

  5. I digitally sign a lot of invoices. I'm not filling in a field, just creating a box that fills with my digital signature. It used to take me a couple of clicks in the old version. Now I have to do Tools, certificates, select the signature, click on a box and a button... And then the next time I open a PDF I have to go through the whole thing again, because the tool bar config is not saved. This is a huge waste of time and I'm VERY dissatisfied with this release.

  6. I come back to my work computer (that no one uses or administrates) to find Acrobat has lost my Quick Tools customisations. How hard is it to make an app that just remembers it's ******* settings between sessions??

  7. Add the ability to change the pre-defined colors for the highlight tool. Having to highlight first, than go and change the properties of the highlighted text just to replace Adobes forced colors wastes a lot of time

  8. Remove all icons, share, feedback, tutorials, notifications and profile and settings on one side on the other Remove HOME - TOOLS and DOCUMENT.
    who in the H-ell was this idea, a person with a 2 mile monitor?
    if you leave Home-Tools and Document, then remove the hidden section on the right side, this has the same as those 3 options.
    here at work honestly, I hate to work with acrobat, at home I love working with Kofax.
    if you think you are the best, no, you are not. Acrobat was a lovely, professional program, now I hate it so…

  10. I'm new to having permissions allowing editing with Acrobat. The "Get Started" menu doesn't fully operate. "Introduction to Acrobat" will not run at all. "Interactive tour stalls out after requesting I enter 'highlight' in the Tools search bar.

  11. There are too many icons in Adobe Acrobat that use a magnifying glass. As a result, I can't find the important/most commonly used icons like zooming in/out and the 'Find' option. Are that many different zoom options really needed, and if they are then maybe do a better job of using a variety of icons and hide the lesser used ones by default. Another option would be to provide one zoom icon on the toolbar and then when you click on that button, it provides a drop-down menu, to choose which specific zoom. There definitely needs to be a clearer…

  12. Get a smaller, lighter Acrobat Reader without artificial intelligence. The current one is too big and makes the computer very slow (including when starting up). I just need a PDF reader, with markup, commenting and quick search tools!

  14. I would like to be able to disable the popup toolbars that come when you click certain tools while still being able to use that tool. As accountants we never need to edit the font or size of our comment editing so we never need the accompanying toolbar.

  15. The MigrateEmails OLM to EML Converter is the single-click expert solution to convert batch OLM files to EML simultaneously. It assists users in converting OLM (Outlook for Mac) files to multiple formats that are supported by Windows-based systems and other email clients. This tool enables users to convert items such as emails, contacts, calendars, and tasks from OLM files selectively. Thus, it is simple to target required data only. But this application has a sophisticated inbuilt option to export Outlook OLM to EML to other file formats with less effort. Some other notable features of the application include:

  16. 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.

  17. I can't find "add text comment" (without a border) tool in August 2023 Acrobat.

    When I choose another similar sounding tool called "insert text comment" and clicking on a newly-created blank page, nothing happens. (I don't know what this for in either old or new version. It may have something to do with cursor?)

    Workaround is to use "add text comment" (with a border), change properties to always have no border displayed and resize the border after typing.

    The old version behavior of "add text comment" appeared to add text at position clicked on a page and then flowed right…

  18. Should be allowed to customize the Main Toolbar you can put whatever you have - but some are not useful at all, the older one you could add whatever you wanted this new one is rubbish. Also the icons need to be smaller too so you add more too. Next problem I found the highlighter tool you add it to your customization tool it does not work but if you add to the main it works (where is no good not enough space) or you can only use in the COMMENTS tools Adobe sort it out - what are we…

  19. I would like to report a significant issue that has arisen with the latest update, particularly affecting the display and functionality of PDF Portfolios. Formerly, these portfolios showcased thumbnails that provided a visual preview of the contents, enhancing navigation and user experience. However, these thumbnails are now missing, replaced by a mere list format that significantly diminishes the portfolio's usability and aesthetic appeal.

    Upon switching to the old UI, hoping to regain the lost functionality, I observed that while the thumbnail pane reappears on the left side, it only displays PDF icons instead of the actual thumbnails. This change not…

  20. I suggest adding the ability for quick and high-quality PDF sharing across various online platforms, allowing easier integration for informational and news portals. This would assist editorial teams in exchanging materials efficiently and maintaining publication quality, which is crucial for portals like https://prmedia24.com

    In the information industry, it’s important to publish and share materials quickly. Tools for high-quality PDF sharing would simplify this process for sites like ours, positively impacting team productivity and ensuring faster updates for readers.
