Acrobat Reader

Some large corps. truly love to confuse everyone.Although I have never actually subscribed to Acrobat, I have used the free version of Adobe Reader since 1999, mainly for read only purposes, allthough I was always under the impression that I could also convert a normal text document into a PDF. But apparently that's not the case. 1. Is Adobe Reader and Acrobat Reader the same thing?2. I have the Adobe Reader 64-bit free version installed on my Windows 11 64-bit desktop pc, although Windows has identified it as Adobe Acrobat. I am now trying to convert a normal text document into a PDF but Reader is requireing my log in to Adobe.com wher it shows various prices for various apps. Can you please help?

Dear Adobe Support Team,I’m experiencing an issue on my Mac (macOS 12). Every time I try to download any file, my browser automatically redirects to the following page:https://get.adobe.com/cn/reader/download?os=Mac+OS+12.0.0&name=Reader+2025.001.20841+for+Mac&lang=cn&nativeOs=Mac+OS+12.0.0&accepted=&declined=&preInstalled=&site=landingI’d like to confirm Is this link an official Adobe Reader download page?

Adobe Acrobat "DC" (detail below) takes a very long time to open each PDF file.  After double-click on a PDF almost 30 seconds elapses before it opens.  That's not right.   The old reader worked fine.  This "DC" version has trouble.   In addition, it provides an inferior way to save the document (a list of previously-used folders, or always "Documents" if I select "Choose a different folder".  Why not remember the *last* different folder I chose?  Annoying.   Can this be removed and replaced with the old reader?       Installed Acrobat: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe     Version: 9.0.0.2008061200     Creation Date: 2008/06/12     Creation Time: 02:25:18 Installed Acrobat: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\AcroRd32.exe     Version: 15.9.20077.160923     Creation Date: 2015/10/23     Creation Time: 16:2

Is there a way to show the full file name on tabs?I often need to have 5-10 tabs open, all file names need to start with the same address, and I need to frequently flip back and forth between them.I can't see the latter half of the file names so waste too much time looking for the right tab 

This "Ask AI Assistant" box has started popping up at the bottom of the window when viewing a PDF. It has an option to "hide for this session" but how do I turn off permanently? It's just another annoying dialog box filling up my viewing screen

Hello everyone, I’m currently managing Adobe Acrobat Reader updates in a corporate environment, and I would like to get advice on the correct method to deploy and update the 64-bit Reader (Continuous track) using MSI + MSP files, without letting each PC download updates from Adobe’s servers. What I want to achievePrevent Adobe Reader from checking online updates individually (it causes network congestion in our company).Instead, I want to deploy only the necessary update files (MSP) from a local server or software distribution tool (e.g. SCCM, Intune, SKYSEA, etc.).In other words, offline patching/distribution using MSI + MSP, not using the built-in auto-update function.What I already triedI downloaded the latest Reader update file:AcroRdrDCx64Upd2500120756_MUI.msp (Continuous track, 64-bit, MUI).However, when I double-click or run it via msiexec on the current PCs, the patch fails with an error like:“This update could not be applied. No qualifying product is installed or the

Dear Community !I have got error message in all situation.All the best: PG

I use the "combine files" tool almost daily. About a week ago, it started bringing me to a page in Adobe with a grayed out picture of a cloud and rain and a message that simply said "something went wrong. Try again later." I have tried at least twice a day over the past week or more, doing the same steps I have always used to combine files, but have not had any success. I am still getting the same message. All other tools seem to be working fine. So it seems like just this feature is "broken" in some way. Please help!

Apparently I have made a grave mistake, because I uninstalled Acrobat Reader DC in the process of trying to diagnose an issue, and now I cannot reinstall it again. Every time I try to install, I get the error code 150201. I have tried many things, including restarting my computer, updating Windows 10, updating my graphics drivers, the AcroCleaner tool, and also the off-line installer. After all of them, the installation fails with the same error 150201. I assume there has to be a solution, but I'm not going to reinstall Windows in order to address this issue. How can I find out what the real issue is and how to solve it? Thank you in advance.

We are seeing issues on numerous systems  (all Windows 11) when printing PDF forms.   Content in various tables is missing when printing the PDF's.   The content does show in the applications however. This is occuring in version 2025.001.20744 | 64-bit

When opening from a PDF Adobe stays open and I need to manually close it each time, annoying when you have loads to print! Can anyone help please? 

Hello, I work in IT Support and some users have reported that the Acrobat Reader app freezes when performing any operations, eg adding a signature to a document - the screen goes black and the app becomes unresponsive. I managed to replicate the issue on my own machine. I try to add a signature to a document and the app becomes completely unresponsive. All Menu functions are greyed out and the only way to close the app is to Force Quit. I've seen that this issue has been discussed in the Adobe forums many times over the past few years. I tried many of the suggestions but without any success. Here's what I've tried:Uncheck "Use Page cache" and "Smooth Image": under the Page Display category.Uncheck "Enable hardware rendering for legacy video cards": under the Multimedia section.Uncheck "Show online storage saving files": in the General tab.Click "OK": and restart Acrobat to see if the issue is resolved. I also tried uninstalling/reinstalling Acrobat - still have

Hello, I have a user who needs to drag and drop several PDFs from Outlook and combine them into a PDF using this feature. Instead they get a stop symbol. They also cannot paste from their clipboard. I am experiencing it on my copy of Acrobat also to verify. I have already ran a repair and restarted their machine. We are updated to the latest version of Acrobat which is 25.001.20756, and on Windows 11 25H2. We are also using the NetDocs ndAdobe integration.  Please advise, thank you.

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC version 2020.009.20063 - After already going through Accessibility Setup Assistant, when attempting to launch Read Out Loud there is an error message shown of "no US English voice available on this system".  This is being seen on multiple systems. This is a vital component for users with limited vision. 

I use Reader to comment on student scripts, many of them in a day.When I (used to) open a document, every time I had to choose commenting in the right box, then choose the comment tool in the top box. What a faff.  There was no way to make commenting the default. But now, when I open a document, every time I have to choose commenting in the right box, then choose the comment tool in the top box, then for every comment I have to choose the comment tool in the top box - again.Why is Adobe making it so difficult to do a simple job? In the old days, I just picked up a red pen. And wrote.Unfortunately, I am not able to copy the Acrobat's version number, but it is kept up to date.

Hi everyone,   I'm hoping someone can help with a frustrating display issue I'm seeing in Acrobat Reader on my Windows 11 machine.   I've noticed that the text in many of my PDFs appears jagged and slightly pixelated. It's not unreadable, but it's very harsh on the eyes, especially compared to how crisp it should be. The strange part is:   If I open the exact same PDF file in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge, the fonts are perfectly smooth and render correctly. The problem seems to be with all fonts, not just one specific type.   I've already gone into Preferences > Page Display and my "Smooth Text" setting is set to "For Monitor." I have tried switching this to "None" and back, and have also tried the other options, but it makes no difference.   My graphics drivers are up-to-date, and my system (i7, 16GB RAM, SSD) and high-resolution display (1920x1080) are more than capable.   It seems to be an issue specific to Acrobat's rendering engine. Has a

I have tried many times, on the official download page, after selecting Windows 11 as the OS, English as the language, the Select Version was greyed out. There is no way I can go past this step to download the free reader. Help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

I need help translating text inside a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat Reader.Is there a built-in translation tool in Acrobat Reader, or do I need to use external tools?I would like to:Select text from the PDF and translate itKeep the original formatting if possibleTranslate multiple pages efficientlyI’ve tried copying and pasting text into Google Translate, but it doesn’t always work properly due to formatting and images.If anyone can suggest the proper method or tools (free or built-in), I would really appreciate it! 

In Acrobat Reader, when highlighting text in a PDF, is it possible to show the actual highlighted text as a list in the 'Comments' sidebar?Currently, the 'Comments' side bar shows a list, but instead of the actual highlighted text, it just shows the words "Highlighted Text" for every Comment that is created per highlighted text (and the corresponding link to the actual text within the file).Basically, I'm just wondering whether it's possible to see a list of the actual text that was highlighted instead of just a list of links that brings you to the highlighted text within the PDF.

Hi There Multiple of our employees are struggling with Adobe Acrobat Reader when printing. When they select the Print option, it takes up to 20, sometimes 30 seconds just for the Print Windows to appear. Then once I Print, it takes another 10 to 20 seconds to to send the job to the printer. All my other Apps can print just fine and in 1 to 2 seconds.  I have updated, uninstalled and reinstalled the Adobe Acrobat Reader and the Printer Drivers to latest versions, to no prevail,

Hi guys,I cannot change the properties of a PDF file, like author, title, subject, and keywords as all these fields are grayed out. Some of the PDF files I have are filled with information, and some are not. For both cases I am unable to change them.I have considered the possibility that these files are protected by their creators, but the files have no passwords, and I have even tried to create my own PDF using Microsoft Office Word Document and then saved it as a PDF, and even then, though I'm the creator of the file it shows the author with a name I have never seen before and I still cannot change that.I am using Windows 7, and am using Adobe Reader 9.4.I have attached a screenshot of the grayed out part where I get to it by:01. Opening a PDF file.02. On the tabs above, select File.03. Select Properties.I even considered the security tab, but all of the files are showing with no security in the security method!Here is how I got to the security tab:01. Opening the PDF file.02.

Hi there. I'm having problems installing Acrobat Reader DC. I downloaded the initial executable file through both Edge and Firefox, both downloads worked correctly. When I went to install AR from the downloaded executable, it shows the downloading bar reach 50%, then the installation fails and I'm taken to the online failure screen. JavaScript is enabled, my antivirus is just Windows Defender, so nothing fancy there.  I can't think of any programs that I have running that would interfere with the installation. This is an installation over a clean install, and it has worked properly in the past.  It's just suddenly deciding to choke now.  Thanks for any assitance.
