  1. As a suggestion of Improvement, I just want to let you know there is a translation error in the german version. "Working on it" when searching in a large document doesn't translate to "Daran arbeiten..:" in this context. It has no meaning. You should consider renaming it to something like "In Arbeit"...

  4. When there re space restrictions on the C: drive Adobe apps can be moved to the D: drive. However, Acrotray.exe. errors happen. There needs to be a way for the Cloud installer to repair this automatically and let the user continue to use the D: drive.

  6. windows 10 64bit with 20H2 update. fully updated.

    go to preferences > security (enhanced) > enable protected view for ALL Files & run in appcontainer.

    i downloaded a pdf from my bank with my card statements and double clicked it.
    i opened the search box and tried to search for something, clicking somewhere in the app window, freezes the entire app and won't respond and must be forced closed.

    this behavior has never happened even on older v11 versions with protected view enabled.

    the app shouldn't freeze when searching with protected view enabled.

  8. The Reader app (all platforms) should be more generalized to allow "reading" of both EPUB or PDF documents.

    Similarly, we should be able to embed an EPUB into a PDF file. (PDF has a robust method that allows it to embed other file formats.)

    Then, we should have a switch in Reader that would let a user to switch from PDF to reflowable EPUB and back again.

    While I understand that Adobe is investing heavily in Liquid Mode, this EPUB method would be far more reliable for people who need to control the design of both static and reflowable modes.

  10. For the last few days, if I have more than a page of recent documents, when I open Adobe Reader, it immediately becomes unresponsive.

    I then have to open Adobe Reader by double clicking on a PDF document and clear the recent document list. Opening Adobe Reader this way means that it doesn't try to load the thumbnails for the recent documents, which is what I assume is the problem. Adobe Reader will then open correctly until the recent files list gets too big.

    As a workaround, I have just set the "Documents in recently used list" to 10 which…

  11. As a result of COVID, we are now forced to have virtual tribunal hearings and present testimony in PDF via screen sharing.

    Witnesses often have to point out something in an exhibit - a sentence or paragraph or a point on a map and it is difficult for viewers to see the hand tool because it is too smaller to be easily visible and may not have sufficient contrast with document colors to stand out.

    At in-person hearings, it was possible for a witness to stand up a point with their hand to an item on the main display screen…

    1. Brief title:
      Jump to specific page in pdf document via URL (browser extensions)

    2. Description of desired feature:
      When doing research for university, I often open many tabs at once. Sometimes books in pdf document form from my local file system. When closing google chrome and reopening on the other day, the document opens up at the first page. It would be nice if a) the document keeps its position when closing the browser and reopening, or b) via an #[pagenumber] at the end of the URI in the browser I can navigate to specific pages, especially on browser reopening -…

  13. 1) Don't pull info from Google to log me in. It automatically used the info from the wrong email account and it took forever to find the logout button (the symbol for my name/account info was not one I chose, it looked like a tiny pie chart).
    2) Make it affordable. $180 a year just to be able to edit documents is pretty steep. $25 a year....ok, I can see that. I expected to have full use of the system for that. I's even pay $50 per year. Maybe have multiple tiers for membership?
    3) Change the wording on your…

  14. please add and allow the cursor to change. I am visually impaired and have enlarged Window mouse pointer. When mouse pointer gets into the Reader, it "disappeared" and was so small and hard to follow!

  19. Acorbat Reader DC displays pages with unsightly white borders, including down the middle of any matter spanning page spreads, such as photographs.

    Also, I would like to be able to choose a custom background color, and hide all the toolbars, buttons, tabs and whatnot.
