It would be nice if you could make a more affordable version of Acrobat, or an add-on to the Reader, with just TWO capabilities: merge pdfs and password protect. Users like me do not need to modify pdfs, convert from MS Office, sign, etc. etc. etc. And once or twice a month need to merge or password protect so a monthly fee to Adobe is rediculous for occasional use. If built into Reader, which I'm sure you won't do, that would be very nice of you so that users like me could do the simpler tasks without having to use a "free" merger or other means of password protecting a pdf document.

Basic infos

Setup1:

OS: Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Standard // 10.0.14393 // 64 bit

Adobe Acrobat Versions :

• DC 20.009.20074

• DC 20.006.20042

• Classic Track 2020

Setup 2:

OS: Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard // 6.3.9600 // 64 bit

Adobe Acrobat Versions :

• DC 20.012.20041

Problem Description / Situation

• Windows Explorer preview is active.

• Adobe Reader is the preview handler

• Select a file that is on a smb fileshare and send delete request.

Expected behaviour.

• file gets deleted

Observed behaviour

• following error occurs

  • Windows Dialog > File is in Usage of Explorer. > close the file and retry.

• presists no matter how many times you hit retry

Known workaround

• Disable Preview in Windows Explorer

• delete file (Occasionally you get the same dialog but after some retries it works)

• enable preview in Windows Explorer again

futher test results

• Problem does not exist with on the same fileshare If you acess it over a local Win 10 Client

• Problem does not exist or is solvable by retries when the files are located in the terminalserverusers profile.

Auto scroll and speed choise are great but when the pdf arrives at the end and you want to see it many times you have to go again at the beginning and choose auto scrool.I suggest to implement the feature for the document to automatically loop and play over and over until you decide to stop it. Windows Media player has a repeat feature and power point also.I would like the same for acrobat reader.
It would be great for educational purposes to repeat the same information until it is memorised.(REPETITION IS THE MOTHER OF RETENTION..)
It seems from the link below that also other persons need the same feature.I think it is very easy for your experiened programmers to implement it.I urge you to do so.
Thanks in advance

I have a legal copy of Acrobat Pro X (Creative Suite) that I love (I use it over Creative Cloud supplied by my employer). PROBLEM: I cannot have Reader DC (needed for shared forms sent to me occasionally) installed at the same time as it always acts as default app even though the Windows 10 default app still lists Acrobat Pro. This is as infuriating as when Edge automatically changes this every time there is a Windows update. I already own Finereader 15 that does everything Acrobat does and more and does not require a monthly subscription. You lost a customer when you made your business model change, but stop trying to control my computer.

Dear Adobe Team,

could you add a function / command inside the view menu of the free adobe reader that works similar to the function 'freeze panes' in Microsoft Excel.
That would allow to freeze headings/captions if you use the pdf reader for presentations of management reports etc.
This could be useful in video conferences as well when you only can present a section of the full report.
If this would work for picture, text and table objects would be nice.

Unfortunately I have not seen such a function in a pdf reader before.

I do not know if this makes sense for you.

A feedback would be nice.

I have the same problem... page 2 prints on a new page even though the print request is for double sided print. From all accounts it seems to be a widespread problem when a document has an odd number of pages. I tried to print just page 1 and 2 of a three page document but it still printed pages 1 and 2 on separate pages! What a waste of paper. This issue seems to be ongoing for some years and I cannot understand why Adobe cannot fix it when it is affecting so many people.It is ridiculous that users have to create blank pages at the end of the document to make it into an even number of pages simply because Adobe cannot be bothered to rectify the issue. I've never seen this issue on any other Windows software I use.
and why is this webpage so bad to use?
