Questions

Hi everyone, I need to create a PDF document for a review workflow where several people read and comment on the file one after another. Here’s what I need: Person 1 reads the PDF, adds comments, saves it, and sends it to Person 2.Person 2 can see Person 1’s comments but cannot change or delete them. They should only be able to add their own comments.The same continues for Person 3, Person 4, and so on.  Ideally, the document should be revision-safe, meaning that all comments and changes are traceable, and earlier annotations cannot be altered by later reviewers. Is there a way to set up such a protected, revision-safe commenting process directly within a PDF file? Thank you in advance for your help!

11/12/2025 - I have Adobe Premiere Pro.  All of my PDFs HAD a black background and were fine. Suddenly, a drawing feature appeared at the top that now allows someone to draw on my documents and they can indeed be saved with the drawings on them through downloading them.  I tested it. This is not supposed to happen as they are password protected. The system is failing to do what it is supposed to do. I called about a week ago and one of your employees did something which changed most of them,  except about 30 of the documents to a white background. This worked great, because now the ones that HAVE been changed also have the read aloud feature and can be translated into many languages. I am a teacher, so this is wonderful for my students. How can I change the remaining PDFs to a white background with the read aloud feature and how can I ensure that new ones are always white as well - without a drawing feature at the top? This has to be fixed ASAP or people will be able to

Recebi um documento assinado pelo Serpro e não consigo assinar digitalmente, ele apenas valida a assinatura existente mas não habilita o botão 'Assinar Digitlamente', fica habilitado apenas 'Validar Todas as Assinaturas', como resolver?

I have been working on a 800 page scanned PDF of a book written in the 1800's... the objective... make it look as good as possible, and create a fully searchable text indexed PDF set that was - perfect.I have worked with Acrobat a great deal in the past but never to do this type of task, normally print based work where the content is perfect and the process I am about to explain to you would never be required. So this was a search and destroy mission for me... I did alot of searching over the past few days. Alot of downloading of software trials to see only that they were in short - buggy rubbish.The biggest problem came in that the entire 800 pages were scanned manually from a bound document. Meaning the had very large black areas to all four edges of both the odd and even pages, they varied in thickness from page to page all the way though the document and that meant cropping the PDF was pointless for a few reasons. The first is that when you crop a PDF you are doing nothing like a c

I know you have locked previous threads about this, but I feel so strongly about this I have gone out of my way to register and bring it to your attention again Remove this disgusting practice of installing McAfee by default. The download page selects the installation of this terrible software by default and completely erodes trust in your brand and products. Going forward I will be looking for viable alternatives to all Adobe software and this is likely the response of most of your customers after having to uninstall this trash.

I've used Acrobat professionally and personally for well over 20 years (since version 4.0, at least) and the product has become bloated with non-essential features, slowing down my process and hogging system memory, not to mention the online (and not) associated bloatware. I have just cancelled my personal subscription as the addition of useless AI features is the final straw. Unfortunately I am stuck using it for work, but will not re-engage with the product until it becomes more streamlined, economical and user-friendly.  There's been an industry-wide trend over the past 15 or so years to add "impovements" and constantly mess with UI/UX that have added very, very little to productivity imho and Acrobat Pro might be the worst of the lost. Just kidding, it's PowerPoint, but whatever. 

Bonjour, j'ai Adobe Acrobat d'installer sur mon portable. J'ai Windows 11 français. J'aimerais activer la lecture audio et me faire lire mes PDF en Canada Français. Malheureusement quand je vais dans les options de lecture audio et dans la voix, j'ai qu'une seule option en Anglais.Je cherche comment ajouter des voix dans cette option.Est-ce que quelqu'un pourrait m'aider s'il vous plait ? 

My company currently has 10-12 frequent Adobe Acrobat users, utilizing either standard Reader or Acrobat Standard/Pro. These versions are all freshly installed, updated, and running on brand new Dell business laptops. We are dealing with consistent performance issues that are affecting the users ability to work effeciently. We are seeing frequent freezing, unresponsiveness to actions like signing, 60-120 seconds to save files (locally and on network shares), and even crashing. We have performed fresh installations on a few devices, and performance improves for a short amount of time before quickly returning to being poor.  We have tried adjusting page view settings, signature verification settings, and other recommendations from previous posts to no avail. An important thing to note is that the enhanced security options are enforced by group policy, so we cannot troubleshoot disabling any of those.  Any advice would be appreciated, we currently have a supp

I am having an issue where the open doc minatures duplicate so if I have one document open, the minatures are showing two documents. My IT has removed and re-installed Adobe numerous times and that seems to resolve the issue initially but it arrises again within 2-3 days. 

I have a 27 page PDF with fillable fields on each sheet. I am running into the problem where something being typed in a text box on page 1 is being added to a text box on page 5. I know that this is from copying and pasting the text box. I have multiple text boxes and pages that this is happening to. I want to know if there is a shortcut way to highlight a box and see if the information is being translated to any other boxes in the PDF? It will be tedious and time consuming for me to go box by box.

I exported a PDF from InDesign that needs to be digitally accessible. The problem is that Adobe InDesign places all footnotes (note) in a p-tag (p). You can, of course, manually extract the footnotes from the p-tag in Acrobat. But it's a document with almost 100 footnotes, so that would be a lot of manual work.Is there a way to do this automatically? For example, with a (preflight) script? I hope so 😉

Hello - The last version of Adobe Acrobat Pro will not save the default printing preferences I set up under Windows Settings/Printers & Scanners/Adobe PDF printing preferences.  I use the USPTO "joboptions" Adobe setting all day long and always had that set up as my default printing preferences but for some reason the setting will no longer save.  It's like every time a new document gets opened up in Adobe the settings revert back to the default "Standard" regardless that I set up my preferences in Windows settings for the printer.  Typically when I set up my printing preferences under the Windows settings for the Adobe PDF printer they are saved but since the latest update it will not and it's been frustrating having to change the preferences many times during the day.  How can I get the printing preferences settings to save again so I don't have to change it per document? I currently have Adobe Acrobat Pro v25.001.20813 and it says there are no updates av

Hallo,ich habe eine Reihe von Bildern, alle 3400x300px mit 300dpi. Ich führe alle Bilder zu einer Datei zusammen. Sehen in der Übersicht auch gut aus, in der fertigen Sammelmappe sind einige Bilder aber teilweise zehn Mal so groß wie die anderen oder auch ganz klein, obwohl ich alles überprüft habe. Sie sind alle vollkommen identisch.Danke für Tips,o. Neuste Adobe Version auf Win 11

Morning you fine and informed folk - my work version of Adobe Acrobat Pro has just dropped an update ( 2024.001.20604 64bit) and I now cannot for the life of me see how to add a simple table into a PDF. Old advice was:Using the Type tool , place the insertion point where you want the table to appear. Choose Table > Insert Table. Specify the numbers of rows and columns. Specify the number of horizontal cells in the body row and the number of vertical cells in the Column. I cannot find a Choose Table > Insert Table option so any guidance on how/where this is done in the new version? D.

I am working with a user using Adobe Acrobat Pro 64bit unable to to open multiple PDFs at a time recently. I have verified that Adobe, Windows, and their laptop firmware are up to date. I have disabled protected mode and that did not resolve the issue either. Restarting the laptop has not helped resolve this issue either. Are there any other steps I can try to help resolve the issue? This has been ongoing for a few days, before then, the user could access w/o any issue. 

Hallo Community Adobe Acrobat (64-bit) (25.001.20813):Im Modus "PDF bearbeiten" und rechter Mausklick "Bearbeiten mit" öffne ich Photoshop und modifiziere Dinge am Bild. Nach Speichern in Photoshop 2026 erscheint anschließend in Adobe Acrobat eine Fehlermeldung. Inhalt: Er könne das angegebene Bildbearbeitungsprogramm nicht starten... (siehe Bild). Stimmt nicht, denn er öffnet das korrete Programm – allerdings speichert er keine Änderungen mehr am Bild und somit nicht im PDF in Acrobat. Gleiches Problem mit Illustrator.Habe über Einstellung und Suchen den Cache geleert.Desweiteren auch Acrobat deinstalliert und wieder neu installiert.Der Fehler bleibt. Wer hat kann helfen?Vielen Dank

Hello, I have an issue with the latest update. I work daily with PDFs, and I often copy images from a PDF and paste them into InDesign. I've never had any problems before, the copied image always retained its transparency. However, starting today, this is no longer the case. When I paste an image from Acrobat into InDesign, it now has a white background.How can I fix this? I haven’t changed any settings.I’m working on macOS, and both my system and programs are fully updated.Thank you

I am attaching a PDF form I created here that is showing odd tab order results. At the end of the first page (in field #38), hitting the tab takes you to field #14 further up on that page rather than to the 1st field on page 2.  Therefore, if you use the tab to proceed between fields instead of your mouse, you will forever be stuck on the first page. The tab order works correctly betwen page 2 and page 3. Any ideas as to why things are funky at the bottom of page 1?  Or what I can do about it?

Bonjour, je viens de souscrire à l'abonnement annuel à 144€ pour avoir accès au service. Malheureusement, quand je télécharge un document, je n'ai pratiquement aucun service de disponible. Je ne peux pas modifier le texte par exemple. Savez-vous quel est le problème ? Merci d'avance.

hi,im using Windows 10 home and the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on my Thinkpad X1 carbon. Since i bought this laptop, the icons of pdf files on desktop have turned into black squares (see picture). This problem is solved temporarily by refreshing the desktop, but it happens again when I restart the laptop. Can anyone fix it? Thanks

The error only occurs when combining PNGs. Converting to PDF also does not work natively within the app, although if I change the extension outside of the app it combines fine. I turned off all security options I could, the app is up to date, repair does not resolve the issue, Fast Web has been turned off, and the file doesn't seems corrupt as anything PNG doesn't work while converting it into other files types do. Unfortunate there is a lot of bulk files of this type that needs to be converted so changing them all individually is not a convenient option. Is there anything else for me to try?

Considering buying Studio. I see that AI Assistant is included but I'm not clear if I need to buy AI credits in addition to paying for the Studio license. Does anyone know the answer to this? thank you
