Acrobat Reader

I use Reader to open PDF forms, fill in fields, and sign.  Since the upgrade to Catalina and now Big Sur I haven't been able to print. I get around it by saving the PDF to a new file, open in Chrome, and print from there.  My recent challenge with Big Sur is that the "fill" function isn't working. I press "Fill & Sign", get the insert bar, place it corectly on the form, click the mouse and instead of getting a flashing cursor I get some slightly grey verbiage "Type text here" that's pretty scrambled.  I click again, and I get another faint "Type text here". I haven't found a way to actually type any text into a PDF form field since Big Sur.  Any recommendations??

How can Adobe justify creating the technology for embedded video in PDF, so that many customers build their businesses around this format, then remove this format. It’s taking us back to the Dark Ages, and a HUGE denial of responsibility. Adobe please understand that this is a trust issue. We thought that Adobe had said they would enable a new media player within Reader once Flash was discontinued. Where is it?And what news of PDF 2.0?

I use 2 computers. Bought a new Computer & it only contains the PDF files that I save to that computer. Want to be able to view the same PDF's on both computers. What do I need to do to make that happen? 

I have been working on the review of a document for the last 5 hours using the tools of Acrobat Reader DC on a Mac OSX. Saving time-to-time the document. In the last saving, I had an Error 109 and the document went blank (the body text disappeared) and eventually saved a blank document (zero bytes). The question is how do I recover my all-day work before I quit for good Adobe products.Thanks, 

I have an iPhone, that's my first problem. I am in the military and there is a PDF I am trying to view on my phone, but it gives me the Error, "This form requires Adobe Acrobat Reader DC for Mac or Windows." I press okay and I am taken back to the main page. Why am I not able to open this document on my phone? Also, next to the document, where I can select to open it, there is a closed padlock next to it, I assume because it is Digitally signed. Is there a way to view this on my phone? Am I just out of luck with this particular document? Thanks for your time.

This is what the image looks like on some pages in a pdf. Text and images are faded, incomplete, etc. How is this problem solved? Sample picture: https://www.linkpicture.com/view.php?img=LPic5ffe69c03866b300691724

Hello,I created a fillable form that requires multiple users to fill out and sign on the same form.  I learned that some users, who only have Adobe Reader, weren't able to fill out the form.  They received this message The author of this form has specified the field which you can fill. Click on any field to start filling form and the Fill and Sign feature were missing most icons (including 'Add Text').  I know the work around solution is to Print to PDF but is there a long term solution to this? Thank you! 

Hi, after resetting my laptop and re-installing Adobe Acrobat DC, I now get weird garbage text when clicking on the page (or highlighting, marking...) which disappears when scrolling. I updated drivers, deinstalled and reinstalled the software at least 5 times. No other pdf software seems to have this issue, only Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Acrobat DC. Im confusedKatharina  

I created a form with LiveCycle with signature field, then in Adobe Acrobat saved with option "Reader Extended PDF". This allows opening in Acrobat Reader and fill in text fields and save document. Problem is that nothing happens when clicking signature field.

Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder.And when I click ok, I try to save as into another file but I get this:The document could not be saved. A file error has occurred. I have a mac. Someone, please help!

Hello all, I have a printer that only prints one side at a time. Usually, when I want to print documents double-sided, I just print all the odd pages first, take the stack, put it back in the printer and print the even sides (I am sure this is a common practice) For this specific document that I want to print, I need to print 2 pages per sheet. I realize I can use the "Multiple" feature under print settings. However, when I try to select all the odd pages in the range, it completely messes up the format. Does anyone have any way I can print 2 pages per sheet, and print all the even sheets (to ultimately make it double-sided)? TLDR: Using a single-sided printer to make a  double-sided document with 2 pages per sheet

My boss has a PDF Form that she needs printed out. The Form is filled out when we look at it through Outlook's Preview but when we open in through Adobe Acrobat, the form is not filled out and almost every field is empty. Printing the form from Outlook also has it blank. How do I fix this?

I've made a calculating pdf in Adobe Actrobat Pro. I've made textboxes with the number feature and choosen showing 0 decimals. If i write 307 in the first box it's supposed to multiply by 0,123456 in the second box. It works and shows the number 38 with no decimals. I have no trouble with calculating. The problem though is when i press the second box with the number 38, it shows 37,900992. We don't want it to show the decimals as it's not imortant for the costumers... and also it dosen't look good. Is there any way to get the decimals in the second box to dissapear when clicking in the box?

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC will not run after uninstalling Adobe Flash. After uninstalling Adobe Flash, when I start Adobe Acrobat Reader DC I get the following error:   Invalid Plugin Detected. Adobe Acrobat Reader DC will quit. It sometimes takes 10 seconds or so for the rror to come up. I tried re-installing Acrobat Reader DC, but had trouble here too. The regular installs from https://get.adobe.com failed with 'Install Failed', that's all it says. I found I could install successfully using a full install file: AcroRdrDC2001320064_en_US.exe,but I still get the 'Invalid Plugin Detected' error after install. If I deleted or renamed the following plugins from the C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\plug_ins directory that it would stop this error:   EScript.api   IA32.api But now other things like 'Check for Updates' do not work. Versions:Installed Acrobat: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Rea

I created a pdf that opens fine in Preview and other software. However, when I open it in Acrobat Reader, pages show up blank. I have the most updated version of reader. Pages don't show up blank for others when they open it in Acrobat reader. What could be going on? Thanks! 

In one section only of a pdf document the cursor turns into a plus sign (+) and only selects a full line at a time. How do I get it back to a normally selected cursor? Right clicking in the document is already selected to Select Text.

Hello, I think I royally screwed up in cleaning up my computer and uninstalling Adobe Acrobat Reader manually from my Mac a while ago, and probably deleted preference files I shouldn't have. Now I'm trying to do a clean reinstall of Adobe Acrobat Reader and the installer is stuck at the running installation scripts phase. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Any guidance would be immensely appreciated, I really have no idea what I did or what I should do now here.I'm on a Macbook running Big Sur.
