As is stated above, this topic is a submission for a feature change. I request that OCR have the option to be disabled. It's pretty straightforward what I am asking here, the purpose is to address those who do not benefit from said feature, but it is currently always on. Feature settings are hidden within the feature instead of in the preferences window, I also request that all settings for tools, also be located in the preferences window.

They all work except the most trivial thing, I can't make a button that does the SaveAs.The javascript is trivially this:app.execMenuItem ("saveAs");When the mouse is released it does absolutely nothing, looking around does not seem to me that the syntax has changed, can you help me?

I've just downloaded a legacy version (from Adobe's /olddownloads page) of Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (to install on a new Windows 10 laptop), and it goes through the full installation, including selecting English as the language. But when it's finished installing and I open the program, a small window entirely in Japanese (or some other Asian language, but kanji-type characters, wholly unreadable to me!).I called Acrobat support, but the agent couldn't figure it out and sent me to a chat support, this forum. Anybody got a clue?thankscharles

We have a plug-in application, which was implemented for 32 bit Acrobat was fine on the same.Recently we got a requirement for 64 bit version of acrobat, so I followed the steps mentioned in 64 bit SDK and upgraded the same application for 64 bit acrobat.  I was able to compile the code and successfully created the plug-in, which I added to plug-ins folder of acrobat (say....  Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat\plug_ins).  But when I try to open the acrobat, it is not opening the acrobat. (and when that plug-in removed from the folder, acrobat opening).When I try to debug the code,  below things are shown.  What causing the acrobat failing to open in my Plug-in application.Please help me to sort out this issue.

Trying to find a way to access the XMP Metadata using Excel VBA with a reference to Adobe Acrobat 10.0 Type Library. Found some comparable documentation within:Adobe Acrobat SDK - JS for Acrobat API Reference:Metadata topic (page 248 of 2021-02-01 ed).for JavaScript. Anyway to do this via excel VBA?GetInfo and SetInfo work very well for the basic Metadata (Creator, Producer, Author, Title, etc.). Is there a way to access the XMP Metadata -- specifically the copyright? Thanks! 

I am trying to create a book cover file in PDF. I have created the file in Photoshop, but the "Save AS PDF" function does not create the type of PDF I need for publishing a book through IngramSpark. So I downloaded the trial version of Acrobat Pro DC. It will not open a file that I save from Photoshop as a PDF. When I save as a Jpeg, it takes me to the subscription purchasing page online. I only downloaded the trial yesterday, so I should have 29 days left. Please help. Thanks!

Hi all!I wish to have a plug-in or a tool in Adobe acrobat DC Pro with the help of which i can get the meanings of words in a pdf file. Though double clicking on the word should be sufficient, but I don't mind even if i have to right click on the selected word. But the meaning should pop-open within the program itself. The current version of Acrobat DC Pro gives an option of  "Look-up" of the selected phrase, but it pops up an internet browser window to to show the meaning from from dictionary.com. Is there a tool or an add-on that is existing that can show me the meanings of words without opening the internet browser; which i am unfamiliar about. Kindly help.Cheers!!!

Hello, I'm relatively new to JavaScript and any help is greatly appreciated.I have a form with multiple columns that a user will be filling out. The columns need to be filled out top to bottom. I would like to use the ENTER key to move to the next field in the column. I am aware that the TAB key is the default choice of Adobe, but it is not a logical choice for the users that will be using this form. Currently I have been using the script below to move from the first text field to the second. Is there a way for me to apply this script to the enite column without having to place the script in each text field's Custom Keystroke script area? I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017 Thanks. if (event.commitKey === 2) {getField("Plant Sample Row2").setFocus();}

I have saved a pdf that is password protected. The file is pretty much locked down, no printing, no altering images, no copying text...But the problem is that when the file is viewed as an attachment in gmail and comes up in 'preview' mode of the browser (in this case, firefox) it can be printed from the browser. any way to fix this? basically adobe security has been bypassed very simply even without a sophisticated hack. #disappointed adobe!
