Adobe Reader latest Android version commenting bugs.

Question

Latest Android Version of the reader has bugs.

When using Onedrive, It always makes a local copy, even when OneDrive has the file available offline.

This does not allow in-place notation/highlighting/commenting and the whole exercise fails.

since the edited file cannot be uploaded/synced to one drive.

This behavior does not happen on Apple iOS. You just have to make the file available offline. Same on PC it does not happen!

I have spent two hours testing. Opening the file from One Drive App and also opening the file from the reader, with and without the off-line files option.

Opening the file from One Drive App does seem to make local copies with a different naming convention, but opening from reader app seems to again, work on PC and iOS and edits the file in place rather than making a newly named local copy.

Hi amirs2018,

As per the issue description mentioned above, you are facing issue when annotating/highlighting/commenting a pdf opened from one drive in acrobat reader, is that correct?

I assume the functionality of adding annotation on the pdf ( without making a local copy) opened from a one drive is not available on android. Refer to the following forum threads discussing the similar issue:
