  1. AR is unable to open files where the file and folder path exceeds 255 characters. To accommodate this we have had to replace it with a competitor's software.

  4. Because I have to work many times on a multitude of opened pdf files that I need to keep open for days in a row, I think a feature to restore previous session of opened documents (just like Firefox or Google Chrome) would be really helpful!

    Hi,

    Thanks for reaching out to us for you conerns.

    We already have it implemented in Reader.
    Do “File” → “Reopen PDFs from last session.” And that should restore all the pdfs that were present in you last session at the time of Quiting the application.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks
    Ayush Jain

  8. 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…

  9. I like all adobe products but I don't like the fact that to use them I should use Windows or Mac. I understand supporting Linux is a huge work but for something as small as acrobat reader it is possible with little effort.

    It is possible to install acrobat reader on Linux via wine. I suggest packaging acrobat reader with wine and distributing it to Linux.

  10. Reporting a new bug:

    Steps to reproduce the issue:

    -> Open the document / form
    -> Use the "Fill & Sign" tool
    -> Enter any text using Polish diacritics, e.g. Ą, ą, Ć, ć, Ś, ś, Ż, ż, Ź, ź etc.

    Environment:

    -> OS: Windows 10 Pro 1909 (18363.719)
    -> Adobe Acrobar Reader DC Version: Polish (20.006.20034)

    Expected result:

    -> Forms should have a continuous homogeneous formatting. Unfortunately, even different fonts appear in one and the same field. Surprisingly, this problem does not concern German diacritics.

    Observed result:

    -> When filling out the forms, we should ensure that the text…

  11. The Read Out Loud function really needs to be updated so that it works better for individuals with reading difficulties, such as dyslexia. If they want this aspect of adobe to work well and actually benefit many of those who need it, it should highlight words and phrases as it is reading so that is easier to follow when reading, and know where in the text the reader is.

    This will make the product a lot more accessible to people with dyslexia, dyspraxia or the likes.

  12. DC Sep 2025 Version 25.001.20744 will not print all pictures. We have downgraded to DC Sep 2025 Version 25.001.20693, opened the same document, and all pictures print. No other settings were changed. This is on a windows 11 machine. We are printing to a Xerox AltaLink C8245 with the PS driver.

  13. Windows 11 24H2 (OS Build 26100.6584)

    Acrobat Reader DC 25.001.20744

    Multiple users of the software cannot print to any print devices on 25.001.20744.

    They receive the error:

    "The document could not be printed, kindly use our help page to troubleshoot. If you continue to face this issue kindly reach out to Adobe support for assistance."

    When we roll Acrobat back to a previous version, printing works again.

    Please advise.
    Thank you

  15. Hi everyone,

    Upgrading your UTV mirrors can dramatically enhance your off-road experience. From navigating tight switchbacks to reversing with a trailer, high-quality mirrors offer clarity and control.

    Opt for panoramic or convex lenses to expand visibility. Look for rugged builds with aluminum housings and vibration-resistant mounts to endure rough terrain. Shatterproof, weather-sealed designs also increase durability.

    Quick-clamp installation makes swaps a breeze. I’ve found mirrors with blue-tint anti-glare glass reduce eye strain during long rides. Anyone using heated mirrors for winter tasks? Share your go-to brands or custom setups—we’re all chasing that perfect blend of function and style out there.

  16. In order for people with disabilities to be able to read documents that are scanned / images, consider having a disability feature that can be engaged in the standard version. It would be amazing for those of us who can't afford pro and don't need it for any other reason than that. Not being able to use text to speech or even highlight text means many of us have an extremely difficult time or can't read the documents at all without this feature.

  17. How can the following message be permanently disabled?
    "This appears to be a long document. Save time by reading a summary. View Summary"
    I already ticked "Don't show messages while viewing a document" in Preferences -> General, but it ignores this.
    I am losing productivity because this message shifts the chart data each time.
    Adobe CANNOT GENERATE A SUMMARY OF 28 PAGES OF CHARTS! Adobe Acrobat Reader 2025.001.20474 is too stupid to detect that there is no free text in these pages ... only 2-axis charts created from LaTeX using TikZ.
    Please add an option never to show these useless…

  18. I would like to request that Adobe Acrobat Reader add support for applying MPIP labels. Currently, Adobe Acrobat Reader does not natively support the application of these metadata sensitivity labels, which is a significant limitation. Unlike digital signatures, which alter the printable content of a PDF, the application of tenant-specific metadata tags (sensitivity labels) does not affect the printable content.

    Implementing this feature would greatly enhance the functionality and security of Adobe Acrobat Reader.

  20. I have been trying to promote services through LinkedIn for several months, but I feel that I spend too much time on routine. Every day I manually add contacts, write messages, track responses. I understand that all this is important, but I want to somehow simplify the process. Are there any tools or life hacks that help automate the work and not look like a spammer? Share if anyone has experience. I am especially interested in how this affected the result and the number of new clients.
