1. When using JAWS, opening an untagged PDF attachment from Thunderbird , the "reading untagged document" dialog is not always focused

   Windows 10 Home 10.0.19044 Build 19044.
   Thunderbird version: 91.11.0 (32-bit)
   JAWS Version 2022.2206.9 ILM

   Preconditions:
   Configure Thunderbird to use Acrobat Reader DC rather than its internal PDF viewer:
   In Tools > Preferences > Files and Attachments, for Portable Document Format (PDF) choose Use Adobe Acrobat DC.
   inbox contains a message with a file attachment of an untagged PDF document.
   JAWS running.
   Steps to reproduce:
   Open the message.
   Open the attached file (Message > Attachments > Open).
   Actual: Acrobat Reader appears, JAWS is focused on the document, the JAWS virtual cursor is active and there is no text to read with the virtual cursor. The Reading Untagged Document dialog is not spoken by JAWS.
   Expected: the Reading Untagged Document dialog is spoken with focus on the Reading Order combo box.

   Note: saving the file and opening it from File Explorer seems to work properly.

   Acrobat Reader opens and JAWS is focused on it with the VC active. Inspection with Script Utility Mode (JAWSKey+Windows+NumpadMinus)shows that the dialog appears at the top level (although it is not).
   From the initial focus ascend the tree with Shift+F2 to the top level.
   Set to speak window class (F3) and tab left encountering:
   AVLAVWindow

   Work-around:
   When Reader appears, try to Alt+tab away and back. If this doesn't work,
   Activate Touch cursor with Advanced mode on
   Arrow up until it says "window"
   Arrow left, it says "...reading untagged..."
   Arrow down twice, it says "an assistive..."
   Arrow right until you reach Start button
   Press Space.

   Did not try this with advanced mode off, might be easier.

2. Bug Report - Adobe Reader For Windows & Mac

   I have noticed recently that the copy text function when copying some text from a PDF document doesn't work or fail to work properly after you send the computer or laptop to sleep and you wake up the computer / laptop from sleep, and the only way to get it working again is by closing down Acrobat Reader and then restarting up Acrobat Reader again.

3. Bug Report - Reader isn't rendering text correctly in Chrome, Edge, or Outlook

   Blocks of text aren't rendering correctly in Chrome or Edge (it works in Mozilla). These are files that have been saved as PDF from Illustrator or Indesign. The text renders correctly in the PDF desktop application, but isn't working properly in browser readers.

4. Advantages of Cloud PC

   Many high-profile companies offer DaaS Solutions including Citrix, Microsoft Azure Desktop, Amazon Web Services (WorkSpaces), MTM Technologies (AnywhereApp) and VMware (Horizon Cloud). In this post, we run through some of the major benefits of Desktop as a Service or DaaS and why it is becoming so popular among today’s enterprises.
   What Is DaaS?
   Desktop as a Service (DaaS) is an exciting cloud-based technology that lets businesses deliver virtual desktops to any device from anywhere. Client devices act as a conduit for remote desktop processing without the need for onboard hardware, delivering organisations a host of benefits that simply aren’t possible when operating systems must operate natively.
   How Does DaaS Work?
   Under a Windows Cloud PC set up, a cloud services provider maintains all of the infrastructure, network resources, and storage required to deliver virtual desktops to end-user devices. Organizations then purchase virtual desktops in the quantities they need. Their fees compensate providers for server running costs, maintenance, and staff wages.
   In the past, running graphically or computationally-intensive tasks using DaaS was difficult, for example, graphic design and video editing software can use a lot of resources. Most organizations used the service for basic productivity tasks such as order processing. However, new technology is changing this, allowing more advanced work, such as CAD, to be done over the cloud without the need for local graphics accelerators.
   The Benefits of Desktop as a Service
   Here are some of the reasons why companies are so enchanted by DaaS:
   Increased Productivity
   Companies are coming to increasingly accept the productivity advantages of the cloud. 80 percent of professionals report that cloud tools make them more productive. Drivers of productivity include more responsive tools and the ability to seamlessly collaborate with colleagues anywhere in the world.
   Greener Operating
   DaaS also helps companies achieve their green objectives. Virtual desktops reduce energy requirements, extend PC life and allow for more flexible working. Colleagues no longer have to travel to the office to access business portals. Companies can make tools available to staff on their home computers via the cloud.
   Higher Consistency
   IT professionals often struggle to achieve consistency across terminals in legacy networks. Keeping all computers at the same point is a challenge given the number of updates and individual PC idiosyncrasies. Workers can sometimes find it challenging to fluidly transition from one endpoint to another, making hot-desking setups impractical.
   Azure Virtual Desktop changes this by delivering identical desktop experiences to all users. All backend investments show up as improved desktop experiences immediately, without costly delays or downtime.
   Improved Business Continuity
   According to estimates from Citrix, DaaS Solutions service providers are expecting the market to grow between 15 and 50 percent over the coming years. Demand, they say, is being driven by the fact that DaaS offers a low-cost backup that is superior to a secondary site. Cloud DaaS providers can simply distribute company data across multiple servers in real-time, negating the need for brands to maintain a separate backup site.
   Better Alignment With Business Needs
   Companies regularly need to scale their IT networks to accommodate increased business needs. But building a setup that can respond in real-time is notoriously challenging. Successful brands often find themselves over-provisioned, sinking their capital into expensive IT projects.
   DaaS resolves this issue by providing the additional capacity firms need virtually. Organizations can set up role-based desktops wherever users can find physical hardware – including their home-based machines.
   Enhanced Security
   DaaS providers are often keen to plow large sums of money into maintaining security to protect their reputations. A single breach could cause them to hemorrhage dozens of clients. Because of this, security tends to be better on DaaS-based systems.

5. Benefits of Virtual Desktop

   In a recent blog, we outlined the rollout of Windows Azure Virtual Desktop this summer, which is really a repackaging of the original Windows Virtual Desktop. The name change and single-user pricing structures have been the topic of much discussion over the last several weeks, but not many are talking about the benefits of implementing this comprehensive virtualization service at your organization. Consulting with a professional managed services firm can help you to implement Windows 10 Cloud PC and other IT solutions that can help your business become more streamlined and efficient.

   With Azure, platform-specific features allow companies to deploy a safer and more productive experience, utilizing integrated security and compliance capabilities. This incude:

   Efficiency and Flexibility: Virtual desktop technologies can create structural freedom, and increase workplace flexibility. With Windows Cloud Desktop, a team can gain access to them from any device or location. This flexibility permits employees to function remotely in order to get their work completed, which can lend to a great company culture and high morale. In the case of an emergency or disaster, files are accessible no matter the situation.

   Significant Cost Savings: Not only will Azure Virtual Desktop increase operational efficiency, but it can possibly lower expenses in the long run by minimizing desktop management, infrastructure, and support costs. By reducing reliance on expensive desktop computers and software licenses, your overhead will be less costly. Upgrades and necessary maintenance will also be mitigated when centralized rather than over many different pieces of hardware.

   Enhanced Security: Virtual desktops are known to provide advanced security, as they remove the risk of hardware being lost, stolen or damaged. Permissions and access can be centrally managed and easily changed. Microsoft spends over $1 billion annually on cyber security R & D, employing more than 3,500 staff security experts 100% dedicated to users’ data security and privacy. Azure also provides additional compliance certifications to guarantee that your virtual desktop has the best security available.

   Special Features: Microsoft is not the only manufacturer of virtual desktops, their Virtual Desktop has a few special features that make them different. Microsoft provides the only virtual desktop infrastructure that provides a multi-session Windows 10 desktop experience and allows optimizations for Office 365 Pro Plus. Using Windows Azure Desktop, companies can deploy the platform and appropriately scale for their organization in minutes, as well as smoothly migrate remote desktop services.

8. Make fit width the absolutely default zoom

   I could never get the default zoom to be "fit width", even making the settings in multiple places in Preferences (Accessibility, Documents, Page Display). I'm finally fed up with Adobe Acrobat. It's so frustrating to click on a page on the bookmark, and having to adjust the zoom level EVERY SINGLE TIME. I found that Foxit allows me to make AND KEEP the selection of fit width.

9. Ability to edit how equations are read aloud

   Allowing a person to go through and edit how some text is read aloud, for example equations. Instead of being read literally, letting a person select or highlight the equation and enter in what it means in natural language.

   Example: A{p(t), q(t)} is currently read as "A p t q t" when, in the context of the book, it should be "Some function, A, of the momenta and spatial phase space coordinates".

   I don't see a way something very context-dependent could be programmed in, so having a way for the reader to manually change how the equation is interpreted and read might work better.

11. session saver

    When having multiple tabs open from diferent PDF documents, would be nice to have to option to save current session to close the program and be able to reopen as left in the previous state. Sometimes Windows is requiring a restart for updates and you don´t want to loose all the documents open for the next day.

13. Make it easy to set UI preferences

    Would be nice to have a check box to say 'this is the way I want my UI setup', a la Microsoft File Explorer (use this view for all folders).
    The preferences as they are , are too complex
    Let the user set the window the way they want
    Then record that in the prefs with a single check box

14. Suggest to sync color printer setting with Windows

    On Windows 10 Enterprise 1909 build 18363.2094,
    Adobe Acrobat DC version 2021.011.20039,
    opening file Colour Cycle.pdf
    Top menu
    File > Print...
    Print Dialog
    Top section (Printer, Properties, Advanced, Copies, Help)
    Checkbox "Print in grayscale (black and white)" is unchecked.
    Expected behaviour: prints in colour
    Actual behaviour: printed in black & white.

    Why?

    Workaround:

    File > Print...
    Print Dialog
    Top section (Printer, Properties, Advanced, Copies, Help)
    Properties
    Tab 1 (Paper/Output)
    Right hand side
    Output Color: Black and White
    Dropdown list
    Select "Color"
    Click OK
    Click Print
    Prints in colour.

    For comparison, Microsoft PowerPoint
    Open Colour cycle.pptx
    File > Print
    Left hand column,
    Print button, Printer section, Settings section
    Below Settings section
    Print All Slides, Full Page Slides, Collated, Color
    Select Color
    Prints in colour.

    Let's check if its consistent.

    Left hand column,
    Print button, Printer section, Settings section
    Printer section
    Printer Properties
    Paper/Output tab
    Output Color
    Dropdown "Black and White"
    but
    PowerPoint
    File > Print...
    Left hand column
    Settings section
    still says "Color"

    Both Adobe Reader DC and Microsoft PowerPoint are inconsistent with hidden system settings that decide whether a document prints in colour or black & white.

    This problem took 3 embedded software engineers about 20 minutes, and 3 attempts, to solve. This was done during working hours, at a cost to the company. Please can we have a user interface where the Colour/Black & White setting is consistent with how we would expect it? (that the Print... dialogs show the same selection as the printer properties).

    Thank you for making Adobe Reader for helping us read our Controlled Docs, attach files to our documentation, and communicate effectively across teams!

15. Hovering Reference Window of Images or Text Section upon click for temp reference while reading associated Text or Comparing Text/Images

    Mostly there are many documentations which associates lot of text info referring a specific Image or Diagram. While reading the text, it always required to imagine the diagram if it is in another page and having a window side by side when clicked on this image to use it for referring while reading the following text or comparing other diagrams could be very useful to many industries.

16. Ensure interactive features of a PDF document works when being viewed through a browser

    This issue happens with keyboard-only and screen reader users.

    When exporting, saving or publishing a document as a PDF, the interactive features within that document (such as hyperlinks) don't work when the PDF is viewed in a browser (any browser). The only way an interactive PDF works as intended is when it is opened with Acrobat Reader.

    There must be an issue between the interactivity within a PDF and how browsers render that PDF document for accessibility. Can this be fixed so it doesn't matter whether a user has Acrobat or uses a browser to view a PDF and interact with it?

17. Right-click search (Google, Bing or whatever...)

    Many times, I am confronted with a text string that needs a search (I generally use Google) and from within Acrobat I must select and copy the text, then go to the browser and search. I know it sounds fundamentally lazy...but these steps if repeated over and over take time. From the Chrome browser, we can select and then right-click text and "Search in Google" is an option. Acrobat is a much richer environment for working with the PDF but then the constant charade (for instance in a legal document with citations) of select, copy, open the browser, open or find a tab to work in, paste might be unnecessary.

20. Fix Pan mouse option

    When using the Pan mouse function, the mouse often selects text/images rather than panning. There is already a Select mouse option, when using Pan, you should not be able to select text as that's not what you're attempting to do.
