Hi, If anyone can help to identify if the artifacts below are legit from Adobe as our EDR tool started to flag and block the file.   File:AcroServicesUpdater2_x86.exe‎ Process Path:C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\ARM\Execute\[FOLDER WITH RANDOM NUMBERS]\AcroServicesUpdater2_x86.exe‎ SHA256:2f993c84757ebd55b52f24ba1dac930e95329364aa2a0d39148dce3c50107e04  Thanks! 

In the current release 2023,008,20555 - x64 i got some issues with saving a modified file. When i save the file with a different name everything is fine.When saving the file with the same name and overwriting it the file loses every inherited file rights.Inheritance is simply deactivated for the file after Acrobat Reader has overwritten it.  Someone else expecting this behavior?Any advice? (Tested on two different Clients - One Server, one Workstation)

We've noticed error message 'Adobe RdrCEF has stopped working' on our company's older Windows 10 desktop computers. It is popping up upon opening .pdf files. Fixes we have tried, but did not help:1. Delete or rename RdrCEF.exe and RdrServicesUpdater.exe,2. Complete reinstall by using the cleaner tool,3. Update to newest version of Adobe Reader by using bash script Adobe Reader only works when downloading online installer and installing it manually, but we are distributing Adobe Reader to 100's of computers and this solution is not optimal.

Can anyone in Adobe fix this issue that a lot of people are having after they've updated to the latest MacOS 14?! Why are we paying for a service that ignores the customers problems?! We need answers now. If anyone has an alternative please let me know, thank you.

hello The option of Edit>prefrence>replace document colors. doesn't work on scanned pdf, but in the android app the night mode works even eith scanned pdf. so is there a way to turn the background of a scanned pdf to black with Adobe reader desktop version?

I have at least three computers in my network that scan frequently and heavily. They rely upon the preview function to identify files and move them accordingly and it slows them down to open the files. For some reason, the preview function has stopped working in Windows 10 File Explorer. It will work on my machine and several others just not these heavy scanners/users. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, updated the version, checked the permission to allow preview in the app, and even mirrored their settings to my own. I also cleared the temp files No matter what I do I cannot get this preview to work. Any suggestions are appreciated. I am at a loss at this point.

I have a PDF form I've been filling out for some time. It consists of the editable fields overlaid on top of a non-printing background--it's printed onto a readymade form with the same page elements, so the background doesn't get printed.It worked fine under OS X up to Big Sur, which was the most recent version my old iMac could go to. When I bought a Mac Mini with Sonoma installed, it wouldn't work. The problem was that numbers would get cut off within a field--they would be visible when that field is active, e.g.,123but when that field wasn't being edited at least one character would become hidden:12This happened in Preview and third-party apps like PDF Professional.So I downloaded and installed the latest Reader, and now those fields function but I have two different problems:1) it only properly places all the fields if Print>Page Sizing and Handling is set to "Actual Size," but the very bottom of the bottommost field is cut off, i.e., the bottom 10-15% of numbers like 12345

Hello everybody, I've been trying for a couple of days to edit pdf (with the signature tool) in Arabic, with the letters I don't have any kind of problem but when I enter the numbers I don't get them in arabic, it's curious because if instead of a signature I create a note, in that case I get the numbers in arabic and if I copy and paste them to the signature in that case if they stay in arabic format.If we do a search for applications within adobe I also get the numbers in arabic.That is to say, it seems that with all the tools the numbers come out in arabic except with the signature.Could someone help me in this case? Adobe Acrobat Reader 2023.008.20533 In the end, all we want is to be able to write over a pdf with text and arabic numbers.Thank you very much in advance.

Good morning, I have a problem with viewing some PDF files downloaded from the newspaper "Il sole 24 ore". Unfortunately the files read very blurry with Adobe Reader, we have all versions, from the oldest to the latest updates. Other pdf files are read correctly. I thank anyone who can help me. Christian

When i press fill & sign and write in Hebrew the letters are disappear

When a Windows application opens off-screen, mousing over the open window in the toolbar, right-clicking and choosing Move should allow you to relocate the window using the arrow keys. Normally touching an arrow key and then moving your cursor shows the window now attached to the cursor and you can drop it on your active screen. Adobe Reader does not follow this behavior, instead passing the arrow key presses into the open document. Of all my Windows programs, only Adobe Reader fails to follow this Windows standard and it forces me to reconnect the monitor in order to interact with the open window. This is a Windows standard function. Can Adobe Reader be fixed to follow this standard procedure?

Hi all,My goal is to try to scan multiple PDF's so they are searchable and I can extract information through Python in images and text within the PDF's. I'm facing multiple problems which mostly revolve around either the text not showing up in a PDF "Ctrl+F" search, or Python reporting to me that the text is not there. I've tried all the below described methods without many results on the attached file (attached file is file I downloaded before running scans). My questions are below which should help me debug the issues to see what is user error on my part:1. What is the best program to enhance &/or scan PDF's? (Adobe Acrobad Reader, Adobe Scan, Adobe Acrobat DC, etc.)   - Maybe i'm not understanding the difference between these, or if they are all apart of the 'Adobe Acrobat Pro' package.?2. What is the best method to scan text so it is searchable? 2A - I'm trying to use the 'Scan & OCR' tool in Adobe Acrobat Standard and see you can select 'Enhance' -> 'Scan

I have read through several discussions and have not found an answer that works for me. I downloaded a fillable form from my employer. Opened it in Adobe Acrobat, filled it out, then uploaded to a website. When opened on the website it shows up blank. Adobe also does not give me the option to print to PDF. I have tried different browsers as well. If I send the PDF in an email to someone they can open it and see the filled in text. I have also tried uploading to a different website and it is still blank. All systems and software are updated to the lates versions. Colleagues with PC's do not seem to be having the same issue.

how can I highlight text in acrobat reader using keyboard commands. (Note, I am assistive technology user (i.e. screenreader = JAWS). Alternatively, are there any keyboard commands to highlight text.

[Moderator's note: this thread was moved to Acrobat Reader from Acrobat Pro]   I have Adobe Acrobat ReaderContinuous ReleaseVersion 2024.001.20604 Bottom left it saysConvert, edit and e-sign PDF forms & agreementsand a buttonStart Free Trial I have not clicked start free trialI have been using the app much longer than 7 days There is a working feature where you clickon an icon that has a tooltip - "Fill in form fields"This includes a submenu that includes "Type Text"If I select this then I can click on one of my PDFs and add some text to it and save it. My questions are: 1. How can I do this? Is this not part of the edit feature that only comes with the trial I have not started yet?2. Will this feature suddenly go away? When?3. If I save these PDFs will the text I have inserted always remain or will it potentially suddenly disappear?4. If I start the trial what will the answer to 3 be? Thanks, Andrew

Hallo, ich kann die Überlappung, beim Ausdruck von PDF Dateien in Postergröße nicht einstellen, sie beträgt immer, egal welche Auswahl im Kästchen angebe,an Überlappung, 5 mm. Ich möchte ohne Überlappung ausdrucken.Jemand eine Idee dazu ? 

Every time I open Acrobat it stops me from doing any work with ads, notifications, etc. Is there a way to shut all of this off so I can just use the application? It kills productivity and it's ultra annoying.

I have a large book as PDF file and it contains a number of maps with topographic names.I need to select these names only from the map and export these names to MS Word or any other text editor for translation purposes. Currently these names are in English.Is there a quick way of doing this?Translating a globe per se is a rather tedious task.
