Annotated PDF generates cryptic file names / Kommentierte PDF erzeugt kryptischen Dateinamen

Hi @defaultcozdtqikerr3,

Thanks for bringing this up. we understand how frustrating it can be when saving or sharing a commented PDF results in a file with a cryptic name.

Given the information provided, this typically happens when:

• The PDF was opened from an email, cloud link, or browser tab (rather than from local storage).

• The file is auto-saved after annotations using a temporary or system-generated ID.

• The original filename wasn’t retained by the app or platform you used (especially in web-based or cloud environments).

Here’s how to fix it:

1. Save a copy with your own filename

   After making comments or annotations:

   • Go to File > Save As (or Download if using a web viewer).

   • Rename the file to something meaningful before saving.

    

2. Avoid editing directly from browser previews or email attachments

   • Instead, download the PDF first to your local drive.

   • Then open it in Adobe Acrobat (desktop), annotate, and save normally.

    

3. If using Acrobat Web or Document Cloud:

   • Open the file from your Recent files list in https://adobe.ly/3HFCF5c, click Save a copy, and name it as needed.
