  2. Microsoft Access Cloud:

    For over twenty years, Microsoft Access Database has been one of the leading relational databases used by modern enterprises, a critical part of Office and Microsoft 365. It is a pioneer in low-code, no code database solution development. However, with the emergence of the cloud, Access customers tell us they need more hybrid solutions that keep the value and ease of use of Access with the value and flexibility of cloud-based storage and development platforms.

    Making your Access solutions mobile with the Power Platform

    One of the most requested capabilities Access users ask for is the ability…

  3. When I click on a line of text in a PDF the result is text and other graphical elements getting scrambled with weird coloured glitches. I provide two examples using two different PDFs. The issues goes away if I scroll down the document and then return on the same page.

  4. On December 16 2021 Acrobat DC was updated on my PC.
    I have the Dutch version of the application.
    After this update the rightclick contextmenu suddenly contains the letters 'w' and 'o' twice.
    Check the screenshot below.

  5. Adobe Reader DC version 2021.007.20099 has broken the Right-Click menu, removing "Marque Zoom". Yes, I know the icon can be added to the toolbar, but I and my staff have been using the right-click method for years and do not understand why we are now forced to change. Why can't we add it back to the right-click menu? It was working fine, why change it? Note this is a problem that generated identical complaints back in 2015.

  6. Have an option or a call switch that can be made so that when a file loads it can simply close the file and not save it if the ADOBE is closed?

    We print labels and the user does not want to save the labels - merely print them so they would like to be able to see the labels and print then and then close the Adobe and not have to cancel the save.

  7. By Editing PDF fields in Adobe Acrobat DC user has to be logged in. By on click on edit, it opens the popup for "7 days test period". This pop up you can't close or you can't quit the application.

    Software:
    Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Version 2021.007.20099

    Hardware:
    Architecture: x86_64
    Processor: Intel
    Build: 21.7.20099.455081
    AGM: 4.30.111
    CoolType: 6.0.0
    JP2K: 2.0.2.49666

    Also, the webpage and the registration process is fully with bugs. I have the feeling, the Adobe lost the quality.

  8. The unsolicited imposition of Acrobat Reader DC on my iMac has created nothing but problems for me. I am comfortable only with certain functions on the computer and the unwanted changes to my PDF files has caused a high level of frustration.

  10. The real reason I came here:

    PDF's are usually 1) created by the author 2) sent to the recipient for review (mostly always it is a contract for me to review) 3) Edits/mistakes are communicated by the recipient to the author to correct. 4) Author corrects and returns to the recipient again for review/signature. 5) Recipient has to read the WHOLE contract over again (in my case 25 pages of an awesome rental agreement (wow what a miraculous story that was) when really I only want to review the areas the author edited (and review for the corrections only) without…

  11. I use acrobat for work and use it mostly for map prints I have to add notes and add lines. So I use the connected line tools from the comment section to draw the lines from certain points on the map print but I don't really like it because it sometimes makes it hard to get to one point to the next when I have the map print zoomed in . I can't scroll to get to the next point when using the connected lines tool. It's frustrating, so I would like there to be a pen tool like in…

  12. Adobe should have a feature to assign different passwords to different PDF file in one go.

    Also a feature to send / share this multiple files to their individual recipient in one go.

  15. Clicking on internal links in pdfs make you jump to the pointed position: E.g. in scientific papers, if you click on the source number you jump the source which is normally at the end of the pdf.

    If you want to continue reading it is (as far as I know) impossible to jump back. It would be nice to include some options inspired by browsers: I would like to have the option to open the same pdf in a new tab/window again at the desired position so that after checking the source you can continue reading in the original tab.…

  16. The eraser drawing tool slowly removes highlights and drawing lines and this problem makes you nervous, please fix this important problem.
    Of course, adding an option to erase all lines and highlights in one go to the eraser is another suggestion.

  17. 12-02-21 - I just noticed that the Thumbnail Preview is not working on .PDF's that were recently created. The older files created with the older version of Adobe DC are still viewable.

  19. The automatic OCR feature needs to be dropped and replaced with the option to use freely. It should be an option because we pay for this service. Clicking the box for text recognition does not work, it simply turns my pdf into jpg which then makes it uneditable.
