Find in PDF not working
When I select the magnifying glass to search a pdf for text, the search text box does not allow me to type. Why is that? Is there another way to search for text?

Hi jarikunnel,
Thank you for reaching out, and sorry for the trouble that occurs.
Please try repairing the application installation. In Acrobat, go to Menu > Help > Repair installation. Try closing the application and rebooting the device.
If the issue still occurs, please try reinstalling the application using the steps suggested below:
Remove the application and run the cleaner tool (https://adobe.ly/3SQEQbC).
Reboot the machine
Install Adobe Acrobat from the following page: https://adobe.ly/4uQMZdn.
Let us know if you still experience the same behaviour.
Thanks,
Meenakshi
