Bug in window resize if view has been rotated
Acrobat reader DC. Windows 7 x64 desktop.
Load a PDF (in my case some A1 building plans) into reader.
Rotate view 90 degrees.
Now re-size the reader application window by grabbing left or right edge.
You will see the bug - can't really miss it. Document suddenly reverts 90 degress and stretches then rotates back when you let go.
Not fatal, just unsightly.1 vote -

Adobe Reader DC prints only top part of text lines. View shows complete lines. The problem started a few days ago. Clean up of Adobe and re-installation didn't fix the issue. Drivers are up to date. Manipulation with setup (smooth lines etc) didn't help.

******** couldn't save could have lost a day's work stupid POS
someone already said it Ill say it again **, I just wanted to SAVE. To use the SAVE function which has presumably existed and been replicated successfully on every other word processing program and PDF editor. Nice little gadgets and ads ** *** too bad I CANT SAVE ANYTHING.
I am using an up-to-date Windows 10 computer.
When trying to save, a totally blank, white 'save as' prompt appears that does nothing, leaving no choice as far as I could find but to exit without saving. Thank ******2 votes -
THE NEW ADOBE ACROBAT DOESN'T WORK FOR ME. THE WINDOWS 8 VITAGE OF ACROBAT WORKED GREAT, I COULD SCAN SEVERAL PAGES AND EMAIL THEM WITH ONE
THE OLDER VERSIONS, I COULD SCAN SEVERAL PAGES AND CLICK ON THE MAIL ICONE AND SEND THEM. NOW I HAVE TO DO A SAVE AS, THEN OPEN UP EMAIL AND SEND. I USED TO BE ABLE TO TYPE TEXT ON A PDF, NOT NOW. WINDOWS 8 WORKED GREAT NOW I HAVE ALL KINDS OF PROBLEMS AND MY COMPUTER RUNS MUCH SLOWER AND IT IS ONLY A YEAR OLD.

Move Adobe Reader to App store model
In todays world, many browsers now have built-in PDF viewers to help deal with end of browser plugins and the rise of HTML 5 and mobile apps. Can you please consider eliminating browser plugin for Adobe Reader DC and make Adobe Reader a Mac and Windows App store app as quickly as possible to modernize pdf experience and introduce adobe Scan app which uploads scanned document from iPhone directly to mac or windows PC as well.
As many websites are going HTML 5 and browser plugin support is being reduced, we need to see adobe acrobat reader app converted from browser plugin which is obsolete to a app store model on desktops and laptops. I also want to see adobe Acrobat subscription services made available into Windows and Mac App store instead of traditional app installation methods.
I also would like to see Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Air be completely discontinued immediately as flash player and Adobe Air is completely obsolete.

Single Purchase Option for Occasional Users
I would like to turn a certain PDF into a .jpg and I do not anticipate a need to do this again in the near future. Seems a little out of touch to expect anyone to pay $15.00 for a month and “potentially” hundreds of dollars to use a service only once or twice in a year.
On your most economical plan, Adobe receives about half of a dollar per day and allows an unlimited number of document conversions , as well as other services.Adobe should offer an alternative payment schedule of $1.00 per document,
up to, $3.00 for a 24 hour day of unlimited use.This would be much more inviting to the casual customer and there is a high likelihood of more than 1,000 people per day wanting to use a pay-per-use service rather than long term commitments.

Remove the extra step of saving
Since using Adobe Reader DC for PC, the last few updates have only increased the number of clicks required to do basic tasks. When saving a document, with either the CTRL + S key press or selecting Save from the file tree, there doesn't seem to be any necessity to have the window attached pop up. It's a similar feature to Office programs now, and really only makes the process take longer. Clicking on Choose a Different Folder just brings up the same save options we had in the past. This just creates more steps and wastes time.
To be clear, this dialogue appears when I press SAVE or CTRL S, not when I click on Save As.

Allow the Menu bar (F9) and toolbars (F8) to be hidden permanently
SUGGESTION
With the current version (2020.006.20034), these can be hidden but for the current session only. Put an option in settings to hide these interface elements globally.WHY THE FEATURE IS NEEDED
To maximize vertical screen real-estate; as most of the devices these days are shipping with widescreen displays.8 votes -
FIX Problem security with Adobe Reader WIN10
No reaction when trying to open a .pdf file from a network share available under DFS with a previously running .pdf document locally.
The problem with .pdf files not working properly in correlation with DFS is the Adobe Reader application bug.Bug exist from begin od 2018.Adobe products cannot cope with distributed file systems.The observed bug occurs in WIN SRV 2016 and 2019 systems, and unless it is explicitly stated anywhere that the reason is the change in the SMB authentication method, this is indicated by (logically) the AR logs.this is a link to a thread on this topic https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-reader/can-only-open-1-pdf-at-a-time-from-dfs-server/m-p/10889532?page=3#M62593 The bug only occurs in Adobe applications, previous signals about Edge / other browsers have not been confirmed in tests. .Pdf documents in other applications work correctly at the moment.The workaround is to disable protected mode in Adobe Reader but our security department does not recommend such a solutionNo reaction when trying to open a .pdf file from a network share available under DFS with a previously running .pdf document locally.

One button is too bad.
Dear sir/madam,
I use a lot of PDF files for my job. However, the version I use is 2015.020.20039. Because in recent releases, the buttons "Fit to window width and enable scrolling", "Fit one full page to window" and "View file in read mode" have been turned into one button. I have to open this button on every time. This is an extremely difficult use. Please give us the option of these buttons as single buttons as before. Thank you so much.

auto scroll loop
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.

Ability to completely turn off collapsed sidebars
Please for goodness' sake give users the option to completely remove the left and right sidebars instead of merely collapsing them. For users using Reader, the vast majority of the time all they will want to do is only read a PDF, and many will want as much screen space as possible to do so.
For the average Reader user, in the left toolbar the only thing they may want is thumbnail or chapter view. This could be on the top toolbar, with the other options available on a drop down menu from that button if you really must keep them there. The right toolbar, meanwhile, is completely redundant with the "Tools" pane. Being made up of options for creating and editing, these merely get in the way for Reader users who just want to read. The collapsed bar can easily be clicked mistakenly when attempting to scroll, and when a PDF hides the scrollbar (which there doesn't seem to be an easy way to either disable or re-enable), the collapsed bar will likely be mistaken for the scrollbar period.
I understand that these are considered 'features', but for many users they are merely an inconvenience. In many, many other programs, side toolbars are dockable and can be moved or closed. There are so many other options on how it could've been implemented that aren't so aggravating. Please either use one, or give users the option to completely disable them.

this.media and this.pageWindowRect undefined intermittently
I am using the Adobe Reader Javascript API and trying to access the
this.pageWindowRectvariable. I've found from various forum posts that this has to be 'enabled' by accessingthis.mediafirst.This works most of the time, but intermittently on certain computers, I find that both
this.mediaandthis.pageWindowRectare undefined.It is difficult to reproduce this exactly: sometimes it seems to work fine, and sometimes they seem to stay undefined. I've tried delaying my code - in case things are taking a while to load - and running the code from a document-level script, a button, and the console. It all seems to work intermittently.
The attached file has a timer running in the document-level JS, which prints out the value of these variables every few seconds for a couple of minutes (in case the initialisation is delayed). On most computers this seems to work fine, but on some computers both variables return 'undefined' for the entire period the code is running.
Any support or advice would be much appreciated.

Print selected pages repeatedly
Imagine a PDF with 2 pages. I want to print the 1st page 1 x, the 2nd page 2 times. Of course I can just click on "Actual" and print page 1, then browse to the 2nd page, increase the number of copies, click on "Actual" again and print the 2nd page twice.
But I would like to enter "1,2,2" into the pages input field. In fact, the preview then even shows three pages (1, 2, 2) and I can start printing. But then I get an error alert and not a single page of the entered ones is being printed. This seems to be a bug, because I can use the pages input field for any other selection and range of pages as long as a page isn't being printed twice.
I could even imagine an enhanced parsing of the Pages input field, e.g. if you enter "1,[2-3],[2-3]" this could mean that page 1 would be printed in single page mode, while pages 2-3 would be printed twice in duplex mode.

1 voteHi,
Sorry to hear about the issue you are facing.
1) Have you applied a latest patch of Win10-2004 after which you are facing this issue ?2) Could you confirm me the current version of Acrobat Reader DC that you have ?
3) Could you please do Help → Repair Installation and see if it fixes the issue ?
4) Could you please share a Screen Recording video of the issue that you face at ajain@adobe.com ?
Thanks

F2 should not open web help
The key to open help is F1. It should not also be F2. I was using F2 for Discord/Push-to-talk, and now Acrobat Reader DC opens a web page every time.
Please restore the behaviour of the previous version of Acrobat Reader DC.

why? this is a standard feature in most 2020 windows applicatoin. if adobe does not do it, i go somewhere else. adobe reader dc is not the only pdf reader in the world.1 vote -
Reader DC freezes after some seconds
I installed the latest version Reader DC on a Windows 7 64-bit pc, fater the old version freezed after some seconds. But the result is always the same, the new installation always freeze after few seconds.
I tryed a new installation from scratch, restarted many times, disinstalled DC some times, used the Acrobat Cleaner tool, tryed to correct the installation, but nothing worked, DC always freezes and I have to kill it.
The dump files below were collected at the same time (there were two AcroRd32.exe processes running at the same time, I do not know if this is normal).1 vote
