  1. The latest update to Adobe Reader DC 32 bit version 25.001.21208 no longer launches on Windows 7 SP1 x64 as the previous version worked just fine. Although Windows 7 is long out of support it is still listed as a supported OS for Adobe reader and the incompatible update is automatically being pushed out to these systems. Error upon launch is The program can't start because api-ms-win-core-winrt-l1-1-0.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem

  2. I see a mobile app as a tool for growth, but I don't know where to start. A mistake at the beginning can cost time and money. I need help from experts who can advise me on what features users really need, how to build the architecture, and how to avoid unnecessary costs when developing the app.

  3. Add the facility Urgently to play audio on mobile devices! This is an inexcusable and incomprehensible omission, already 26 years too late.

  4. Acrobat allows the Document Properties → Title field to be filled with empty spaces. This causes the job name passed to the driver to be incorrect: the job name consists only of whitespace, which is not a valid value.

    Could this property forbid such values?

    Please check the attached picture.

  5. Since around January 12, 2026, an issue has been occurring with Adobe Acrobat Reader (25.001.2111_x64),
    where opening a PDF file from the desktop by double-clicking it causes the application to freeze a few seconds after the file is displayed.
    This issue has been confirmed on multiple machines.

    【Issue】
    - The PDF is displayed normally.
    - A few seconds later, the application becomes unresponsive ("Not Responding").
    - User interaction becomes impossible.
    - The application must be forcibly terminated via Task Manager.

    【Environment】
    - Windows 11 Pro
    - Reproduced on multiple machines
    - Occurs on PCs with different hardware configurations
    - Adobe…

  6. I’d like to share feedback based on a recent real use case.

    I subscribed to Acrobat (trial) solely to review and sign a single PDF contract. During the process, I encountered confusing behavior around signature warnings and version switching (e.g. being forced into a “signed version” where all editing and signing were disabled, with instructions to “save a copy” but no clear or usable way to do so).

    As a non-frequent user, it was difficult to understand the document state or how to proceed, even after following on-screen guidance. The friction was high enough that I canceled the trial despite…

  9. Wenn man den KI-Assistenten startet, lädt er ein paar Sekunden. Wenn man da schon etwas eintippt, springt der Cursor an den Anfang des eingegebenen Textes, wenn der KI-Assistent bereit ist. Das nervt wirklich! Ich möchte eintippen wann ich will und nicht auf den Assistenten warten, bis er fertig geladen wurde.

  10. After drawing a dark rectangle over some text in order to block out some sensitive data, it looks like it disappeared on the screen. Although then saving the file and re-opening the file, the blocked out text is not visible BUT the blocked out text is still selectable and can be copied and pasted. A user would expect that if a blank box is drawn over something (such as text) that something (such as text) would no longer be there.
    I have found no other way to remove or cover up sensitive data.
    See uploaded file 'Adobe-Example_edit-save.pdf' there is a…

  11. I’ve been playing provably fair dice games on and off for a while, mostly for fun, but recently I started wondering if I’m actually using the tools correctly. I get the idea of client seed and server seed, but in practice I just roll and don’t verify every session. Do you guys actually check hashes after playing, or is it more of a “trust but don’t bother” thing? Also curious if anyone has small habits or strategies that helped them stay more disciplined instead of chasing losses.

  14. Hi,
    I think the current Acrobat UI is a bit too "corporate." It would be amazing if Adobe allowed users to apply custom themes or skins.
    As a fan of Geometry Dash, I’d love to see a vibrant, neon-style "Dark Mode" similar to the game's aesthetic. Even small icons that react to user interaction (like the icons in GD) would make the PDF reading experience much more engaging for younger users.
    Just a thought to modernize the software!

  15. Acrobat reader 2025 scrollbar is too narrow and especially the slider location in it very hard to see.
    Improve it or give user ability to change the appearance.
    Very difficult to understand why it was changed from good to annoying.

  16. Create a new ADMx or Customization Wizerd to be used in GPO to control settings for Adobe Acrobat Reader DC. In this particular instance, I am looking at managing Menu>Preferences>General>Always Open PDFs saved from the web. By default this is on. We are finding that even when in a Corporate environment and settings are set via GPO preventing Edge or Chrome from opening within browser itself and we have a paid PDF writer software set as default that will open PDF, when clicked on from download within browser Adobe Reader also opens. Traced it back to this exact option. I…

  18. Hello! I am currently looking for a medical spa that offers personalized skin care treatments. I would like to find a place that tailors treatments to the specific needs of my skin, rather than just offering standard masks. I am interested in professional medical treatments, a relaxing atmosphere, and attentive service. Can you tell me where I can find such a medical spa?

  19. Could Acrobat's UserVoice page have a "Costa Menu"-style section like https://costamenu.uk/ ? Something simple that shows popular tools, new features, and recommended options in a clear menu like the layout. This would help users find features, learn what they do, and vote on ideas without having to search. A friendly, visual menu can make the forum easier to use and more engaging for everyone.
