Adobe Acrobat Pro Scan Stuck While Optimizing

I have Adobe Acrobat DC version 20.0 through Creative Cloud Subscription. Im on windows 10.

 

I have a 14 page document im trying to scan and it stops at the 3rd or 5th page and shows a dialogue box reading:

 

"Processing 2 of 1"     

"Optimizing"              

 

This dialogue box stays up unless i hit cancel. I have waited for up to an hour and nothing happens. If i hit cancel then nothing happens and i can close acrobat as it says scanning is still in process.

 

In Acrobat I have tried changing color modes, ocr on and off, optimize image on and off at varying qualities and different resolutions. Same issue everytime.

 

I have reinstalled Acrobat, Scanner Drivers, Logged in and out of Creative Cloud and restarted my computer all multiple times. I havent been able to get any progress on fixing this.

 

Is this a known issue or are there any tips to fix this?

 

Thank you!

Ditto for me. This started on the last update as well. Very frustrating.

I have the same problem.

Super frustrating becasue I use multiple document PDF often.

Earlier today, I updated Adobe per instructions.  Boy, I wish I had not updated.

I am having exactly the same problem, so frustrating.  Adobe Acrobat Pro DC 2020.009.20063 (latest version).  Tried 'Repair Installation', rebooting etc.  Disabling optimise image doesn't work either.  Can scan one page at a time.  Multiple times, exactly the same message as reported in the original message here:

"Processing 2 of 1"

"Optimizing"

 

This dialogue box stays up unless i hit cancel. I have waited for up to an hour and nothing happens. If i hit cancel then nothing happens and i can close acrobat as it says scanning is still in process.

 

Using Brother MPC-L8900CDW with latest firmware

Firmware Version

MAIN  T2003190155

SUB1  1.21

 

Running Windows 7 Professional SP 1 (64 bit).

 

This error seems to be very common, and has been for years, particularly with Brother printers.

Hi LHousley

 

We are sorry for the trouble. As described, you are unable to scan multiple pages

 

We need some more information for a better understanding:

 

Would you mind sharing the version of the Adobe Acrobat/Reader DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > Check for Updates.

 

What is the make and model of the printer/scanner? Please check for any missing updates for the printer/scanner drivers and firmware and try updating them and check.

 

Are you on a Mac or Windows Machine and what is the version of the OS?

 

Please try to repair the installation (For Windows Only) go to Help > Repair installation and see if that works.

 

Regards

Amal
