Handwriting annotations smoothed/distorted on Ipad

Hello,

I have a question regarding the Adobe Acrobat App on Ipad, I am using version 22.01.02, and my Ipad is on IOS 15.3.1. The problem I am having is when I annotate my PDF file in the Adobe Acrobat app, my handwriting distorts and becomes spikey, as seen in the example below. It seems like there is an auto smoothing function, is there a way to turn it off?

Thank you!

Hi @yas37097874ccdp @A232579116wl @DubyaC @Ayaan36721992lviq

Hope you are doing well.

Our engineering team has been actively working on it, but so far, we have not been able to reproduce the problem in-house using version 24.08.00 of the app.

To assist us further in troubleshooting, could you please update your app to the latest version, 24.08.00, from the App Store (iOS)? After updating, we recommend rebooting your device and checking for the issue.

We truly appreciate your cooperation in helping us resolve this. Please let us know how it goes after performing the update and reboot, and feel free to share any additional details if the problem continues.

Please try updating the application to the new version 24.09.00 from the App Store or Play Store and check if the issue still exists.

Please let us know how it goes.

Hello,

Hope you are doing well. I am sorry to hear that you are facing issues with handwriting annotations distorted on iPad.

Have you tried updating your iPad OS and the Acrobat Reader Mobile to the latest version and then check if the same issue persists.

Let me know if it helps.

Regards,

Souvik.

Hi there, did you ever get this resolved? I'm experiencing the same issue and embarassing my sketch notes and annotations are turned into Game of Throne weapons. Looks fine when writing and as soon as I click Done, they're downsampled into a jagged mess. Kind of embarrassing during meetings, always have to give a disclaimer prior to presentation.
