Issues with FIll in and Sign Feature in Acrobat Pro
I am having an issue with the "Fill in and Sign" feature. When I open up a PDF that doesn't have fillable fields but I'm just trying to add text to the page, as soon as I hit the letter "A" key, I get an error message that says, "Currently there are no form fields in this PDF. DO you want Adobe Acrobat to detect form fields for you?" This only happens when I have the Single Key Shortcut Accelerators enabled in preferences. When I don't, I can type the text without an issue but when they're enabled it triggers this error when I hit the "A" key. Many other letters and numbers work without a problem but some of the other keys have issues as well. What's the deal?
This is totally ridiculous that you need to go into preferences, disable the hot keys, then go back to your document, type the text you need added to the page and then go back to preferences and re-enable the hotkeys which are supposed to be a convenience. What does it matter that you're adding text to a document that doesn't have fields. That seems like a glitch in the program. It allows you to type any of the letter, number, or symbol keys that aren't associated with shortcuts but doesn't let you type the 5-10 "hot keys". One function is definitely not related to the other.
I'm not looking to go through the extra step process to add fields. I'm just looking to drop text in various parts of the document and be able to sign and send in a seamless step process. I shouldn't have to turn off accelerator keys in preferences and shouldn't have to go to Prepare Forms tools to drop text boxes to fill out and then come back to drop signatures. The tool functionality is there and shouldn't conflict with single key accelerators.

Very slow pdf thumb display
Hi,
The last 64-bit version of Adobe Acrobat DC has introduced the possible display in Windows explorer of the file thumb. Great, BUT it is extraordinarily slow and in practice unusable (in particular in the Windows 10 welcome screen of the explorer, showing the recently opened files: it seems that the cache is rebuilt every new session).
So, please make the appropriate changes in the program to speedup this display, which is very useful.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. For your information, I work on a DELL XPS desktop with an NVidia GTX 970 graphics display card and my main drive is a 1Tbyte SSD, so I don't think it comes from my rather powerful configuration.

Provide options for naming bookmarks when creating PDF from Web Page
Please provide options for bookmark naming conventions. When creating HTML reports, I intentionally use relative links to link to attachments or appendices. However, when I create a PDF from the HTML home page, the bookmarks contain the full link exposing my User Profile name and other sensitive information. I would like the bookmark to be named for the relative link or the filename only (or an option for the document title). I prefer to create my reports in word with hyperlinks to other docs and attachments, but I have submitted a separate feature request for creating PDFs from documents with links.

Bug: Have one standard icon for PDF bookmarks
Have 1 icon for bookmarks wether it is created by adding a new bookmark or combining pdf files.
If you need to add a new bookmark to a file you cannot get it to display the same icon as those created using combine pdf's. Unless they offer different functions there is nothing but confusion caused by having 2 different icons.18 votes -
Proper table conversion from PDF to Excel/XML
I would like to request a normal PDF to Excel/XML conversion capabilities, especially in regards to a table formatting.
I understand that PDF files are not always properly created/formatted, but I do not see how it can be an issue for a good converter. The main point of converting PDF to Excel is to have a properly aligned table. I had experience with a third party PDF editing software, which costs less than Adobe Acrobat Standard and is able to automatically convert PDF to Excel with a seamless table formatting.Why Adobe, who invented Portable Document Format in the early 90s, is not able to provide the same functionality today?
I hope Adobe development team will address this PDF conversion functionality shortcoming soon.

Cannot type special characters (e.g. š, č, ć) when correcting recognised text
For example, if I type "Tomić" when correcting recognised text, after clicking "Accept" it changes to "þÿ".

Support Installations and Upgrades on macOS Case-Sensitive Volumes
This request is being submitted at the suggestion of Adobe Support which was unable to provide effective support for Case Nº 0189220198. Of the 252 applications currently installed on our macOS Sierra system, only Acrobat Pro XI cannot be reinstalled or upgraded because the storage volumes are formatted as case-sensitive. The previously case-insensitive system volume on which Acrobat Pro XI version 11.0.20 had previously been installed was converted to a case-sensitive format. This was done by imaging the volume as a DMG file using Disk Utility, and then after reformatting as case-sensitive, the volume was restored using the ditto command in the Terminal. Acrobat Pro XI still runs exactly as it did when the system volume was case-insensitive. Notifications have now been displayed that Acrobat Pro XI should be updated to version 11.0.21 and then to version 11.0.22. Neither the stand-alone updaters nor the automatic updates will complete. Although the error dialogs are misleading, we have confirmed that these update failures occur because the installation scripts detect that the volume format is case-sensitive which causes script execution to terminate. The updaters do not include complete copies of the applications and resources to be updated, so manual update would be very difficult and error prone.
Adobe should do better. It is clear that Acrobat Pro XI is compatible with case-sensitive volumes, as is Adobe Acrobat Reader 2017 which installs and updates without problems. It is obvious that Apple is now focusing upon case-sensitive formats. All iOS devices are case-sensitive, and the new Apple File System was exclusively case-sensitive until late in the beta cycle. The new iOS 11 will include a standard file manager for the first time, so files will be moved between iOS and macOS systems far more often than with earlier system versions. That makes parity of case-sensitivity highly desirable to avoid artificial pathname conflicts. Currently, Adobe is the only known impediment to such parity. Adobe should comprehensively support case-sensitive macOS volume formats as soon as possible. Continued failure to do so will be viewed as inadequate support of the macOS platform.

Activate <ESC> escape button to close Search dialog, like many other Windows programs.
Having to manually mouse click the 'OK' button on the 'Acrobat has finished searching the document' dialog is cumbersome. Ditto for other Acrobat dialogs. Please activate the <ESC> key here to close the dialogs. It makes navigation much faster.

Option to unlink form fields when copying fields or complete page
When copying form fields, Acrobat automatically makes identical copies. If I copy a page and fill in the first page, the fields on the second page are automatically filled out with the same info. The only way to couteract this without having java scripting knowledge is to manually change the name of every field. This is frustrating when you have 100 fields that need to be identical on 20 pages, but filled out with different info. This should be a standard option. Preferrably while copying, acrobat could ask if you want the new copies linked with the originals or not.

Extract attachments and place them behind the parent email in a flowing documen
Extract attachments and place them behind the parent email
When converting Outlook email all the attachment to be converted as a full blown document so it can be reviewed and redacted if necessary. I've attached two files to show you what I mean. I have to use a third party software to do this and it would be very helpful for Adobe to do it, especially for the legal community who need to review and redact documents.2 votes -

Georegistration tool - Renew the availablility of georegistration tools.
Many softwares are geospatially aware and can operate on a GeoPDF. Unfortunately most PDF based maps don't typically inherit and/or include a geodetic coordinate reference system (CRS), as the source is often a scanned map or JPG, PNG or other non-spatially aware image format. The ability to easily create a GeoPDF is a valuable way to promote their use, and the previously included georegistration tools were very effective. Assuming that the CRS uses a standard WGS-84 GCS the process is straight forward and easily performed. An enhanced toolset could include standardized alternate coordinate systems with translatable codes - such as what is provided by EPSG, than can be used by softwares to perform on the fly coordinate transformations.
