Hi,

 

I realized that the conversion of Excel to pdf in the mobile app changes Day and month.

It gets English format instead of keeping in my case the German. Germany: DD/MM, after conversion: MM/DD.

 

I searched the internet and found settings for ghe normal version of Acrobat bug nothing for the mobile app.

 

Does anyone has a clue how to change in the mobile version?

 

Greetings

Andreas

Hi @Andreas32715664i42v,

 

Hope you are doing well. Sorry for your experience with Acrobat Reader Mobile.

 

Since Reader Mobile uses the DC online services, we cannot provide any other settings for conversion than the universal settings applied by default.

 

In such scenarios, what I suggest would be to change the field type for the dates on Excel to Text or General and then go ahead with the conversion.

This prevents any chances of the date format changing to the Engilsh format.

 

Hope this helps.
