Adobe Acrobat Reader envelope icon now opens and attaches the PDF to a new email in Outlook, which is fine but then also puts an ad signature text the email body, this is not fine and very annoying! How can this be removed/disabled? There does not seem to be an option in the settings for this?

 

Below is an example on the ad.

 

 

Please find the PDF attached.

Hi All,

 

Sorry about the delay in response.

 

Please update the application to the latest version that was recently released. In Acrobat, go to Menu > Help > Check for updates.

Then, check if you are still experiencing the same behavior.

 

For more information on the latest update, refer to the following help page: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/release-note/release-notes-acrobat-reader.html

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi

In the registry add Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown dword(32bit)

Closed Adobe, opened and email signature came back and no longer had the text in the body

Hi Mike34252688wl23 and nielsa13863308,

 

Sorry about the delay in response.

 

Please let us know if you are still experiencing the issue when you share PDFs via email.

Would you mind sharing the screen recording for a better understanding? Share the Acrobat Reader and OS version. 

 

Let us know if the issue has already been resolved.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi
