severe bug in Acrobat Reader for iPad

I've been using the acrobat reader on my iPad since some years. Now I noticed that it is badly working resp not at all working with some pdf manuals I downloaded recently. Interestingly, such pdf manuals (about 14...24MB size with plenty of graphics) are orderly displayed with the reader coming with IOS, but not at all with the adobe acrobat reader. The worst example I found is the file 'PowerShot_SX60_HS_Camera_User_Guide_DE.pdf' which you can be found on canon.de.

I'd be happy if anyone can explain the problem (most likely a software bug in the adobe reader app?) and tell me if and how I as a user could fix the problem on my iPad.

Thanks for your recent info saying the long know bug had been solved by your team.
I just updated the adobe reader of my iPad mini and tested it. Unfortunately, the bug is still persisting and not at all solved by your team.
So the adobe reader on my iPad is still useless as I cannot rely wether or not is shows the right content of any pdf file.
It seems your team needs to work again and harder on finding and eliminating the awful bug in your software.
Kind regards

Hi Souvik, in order to clarify the problem I used the German manual of mavic mini 4pro (DJI Mini 4 Pro - Handbuch v1.0) available on https://www.dji.com/de/mini-4-pro/downloads. The content is perfectly displayed with safari and IOS. Displaying the pdf-file with adobe reader is totally useless as large parts of text and graphis pages just show up blank. At enlarging such blank pages with two fingers gesture text and graphics start to show up from partly to totally, but disappear again at normal size. I took page 12 as an example. Four screenshots with my comments as attached are displaying the problem. By the way: I used the most recend versions of IOS and adobe. The problem with disappearing graphics in adobe on iPad seems to exist since more tha two years following another complaint dating Oct 2021 (https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-reader-mobile-discussions/anzeige-fehler-pdf-in-acrobat-reader-auf-ipad/m-p/12510557?profile.language=de)

Best regards
