1. Add support for nested alternate text in lists

   When tagging lists, I frequently encounter symbols or acronyms that need actual text. Removing them from the list would actually make the pdf less accessible. Why isn't this a feature?

3. Very Poor in one click Look up and dictionary with using "Ctrl+right click"

   To read something and to understand the meaning of any pharse or word in better ways, there is no better options given to quick click and lookup or using some other software and their shortcuts, like having a dictionary installed and the shortcut "Ctrl+right click" can not be used here.

4. Outstanding Product

   It's been over ten years since I sold the tech company I owned for 22 years. I've been enjoying retirement...until about a month ago! A friend recruited me to help convert some hard copy documents, produced in the mid-eighties, and make them into accessible PDF files. She knew I had some background in technology and specifically with creating PDFs from paper. The documents were going to be part of a new web site about the history of ADA! Given the nature of the site, the documents needed to be accessible! I downloaded Acrobat Pro DC (and a couple of screen readers to help with testing (JAWS, NVDA,(it wasn’t until later that I found Adobe’s ‘read out loud’ feature)).

   I knew right away the Acrobat Pro software was one of the most incredible tools I've ever used! And I've tested a ton of software. My company was an ASP (Adobe Service Provider) for many years and produced a lot of searchable databases full of PDF files.

   The 7 day trial and monthly subscription made it easy to get back in the game. I didn’t know anything about Acrobat Pro, I’d never even heard of it. After learning and using it for a couple of weeks I can absolutely say it IS the most completely amazing piece of software I’ve ever used! Congratulations!!

   All of the old documents have been converted and have passed all accessibility checks!!

   BTW – sometime in the mid-nineties I was selected to be the moderator of what I think was the first and only symposium on a new technology called “Portable Document Format”. If I’m not mistaken the companies represented were Word Perfect, WordStar and Adobe. The symposium was held at the headquarters of USGS (United States Geological Survey). My company had been experimenting with this new “universal” format from the companies represented. It was clear to us Adobe was way ahead of the competition. The symposium left most of the attendees with the same conclusion.

   Also in the mid-nineties my company was selected to convert the whole collection of OTA (Office of Technology Assessment) documents before the agency was closed. We were having a problem with one of the documents; it was about 600 pages long. We tried and tried but could not make an image+text PDF from our scanned images. The PC kept crashing or locking up. I called Adobe and actually got the Acrobat Product Manager on the line. After some discussion he told me he had never seen a 600 page PDF and wasn’t sure if one could be created from hard copy…but if I was successful would I please send him a copy on a CD! We maxed out memory and everything else you could max out on a PC back then and voila! We made a 600 page PDF! The whole OTA collection is still available on the web site at Princeton University - http://www.princeton.edu/~ota/.

   I’m pretty sure I sent him a CD.

5. Expanded Options for Text to Speech

   Text to speech for many people is a useful tool that helps with learning disabilities, such as dyslexia. The text to speech tool in acrobat could be improved by allowing playing and pausing, reading selected text and easily switching between languages (or a detect language option).

8. Keyboard shortcuts to reorder items in the tags panel (Accessibility Tool)

   Please add keyboard shortcuts to reorder items in the tag panel.

   Currently, a user must drag and drop tags in the Tags panel to change the reading order. It is easy to drag and drop items in the wrong place.

   To recreate this problem:
   1.) Open a tagged PDF
   2.) Open Accessibility Tools
   3.) Open Tags Panel
   4.) Attempt to re-order items

   It would be extremely useful to be able to do the following
   With a tag selected, I want the ability to do the following with the keyboard:

   -Move the tag up
   -Move the tag down
   -Move the tag in/under another tag (For example, placing a list item under a list)
   -Move the tag out from another tag (For example, nested paragraph tags)

   Please add keyboard shortcuts to reorder items in the tag panel.

10. Allow Acrobat on a different PC to any running CC for photography

    I have 2 personal MacBooks, one main and one for photography, and a Windows work PC. I have the full Adobe subscription and want to use all applications on the main MacBook, photography applications on the other MacBook and only Acrobat on the work Windows machine but the licencing does not let me. I think the licencing should be changed to an application base, i.e. Acrobat only on 2 PCs, Photography apps only on 2 PCs, rather than an overall licence only on 2 PCs

11. dark mode hidden in Accessibility is inconvenient

    Dark mode hidden in Accessibility is inconvenient. To get a proper dark mode, currently I think the only option is to go to

    Edit menu > Preferences > Accessibility
    

    And then you have to activate "Replace document colors".

    This is inconvenient in case you need to quickly change switch off settings. Would be nice to have a quick button for this.

12. Restore Windows Shortcut - Close all open documents

    Reference Link
    https://helpx.adobe.com/au/acrobat/using/keyboard-shortcuts.html

    From Ref: Close all open documents keys
    Windows -> Not available
    macOS -> Command+Option+W

    Currently the ctrl+shift+w shortcut which should close all open windows/tabs says its "not available" but if you press them all your open documents get uploaded to adobe cloud.

    Since i work with confidential documents most of the time this is not the intended action.

    Please restore this windows shortcut to behave like every other application that uses it.

    Even the mac version uses it why is it overridden in windows?

    Request to restore ctrl+shift+w shortcut to behave normally.

    And add an option to completely disable cloud upload integration for confidential/all documents as a user preference so something undocumented like this doesnt happen again. syncing my login credentials is fine, unintentionally uploading files to adobe cloud is not.

13. Multiple Tag creation

    Hi Team

    To whomever may be competent to solve the problem....

    There are several incomprehensible bugs with accessibility in Acrobat.

    1. We can't create multiple tags in Tags pannel. Please create option for creating multiple tags just like when we create forms there is an option for do you want to create multiple forms. Screenshot pdf attached for your reference.
    2. We cannot delete Tag ID under Object properties at once. Some time its client requirement that they dont want ID, IDs come when we autotag the document.
    3. While working on a big files and creating tags, tags wont come in sequence, they go under some other tags. They should come just under last or atleast on the root.

    I am a slow reader. The speed of automatic scrolling is too fast for me.
    I want to be able to slow the speed down so that I can read to my audience in a video conference. This will allow me to use automatic scrolling like a teleprompter.

16. Table Summary function

    Table Summary function does not update using "check again" to check accessibility tool again after adding table summary. It simply says table summary skipped, even after it was completed. I have attached my sample table pdf and accessibility report below. Also the screen shot showing that table summary was added. This occurs in all pdf documents that originate in Excel not just this sample. So it is systemwide as i have tested multiple separate source docs. Also, uninstalled and re-installed the software and rebooted the computer after uninstalled and re-installed. Issue still persists. Please note it used to work without the bug. Ideas?

17. Acessibility checker manual pass reverts to needs manual check when pdf is reopened

    When you manually check something like navigation links and click pass manually in the accessibility checker, it reverts back to needs manual check when you reopen the saved pdf. What is the point of allowing a manual check if you can't make it stick in the checker report?
