Questions

 Hi,I was previously given some advice on how to prevent redactions from causing white gaps/boxes appear over a watermark like in the image attached. However, I am still encountering this issue so was wondering if more detail/options could be provided. For instance, I have tried making the fill colour transparent and applying the watermark after redaction, but the same issue occurs. Thanks.

Is it possible to center a text vertically in a pdf form text field with the multi-line option so that the text stays centered even with multiple lines?Thank you!

We have a backup laptop with four user profiles: three assigned to colleagues and one that we use for presentations. The latter is an “open” profile, accessible to clients of our business center.The three colleague profiles each have a paid Acrobat subscription.On the fourth (“open”) user profile, we also want to be able to view PDF documents (e.g., presentations provided as PDFs instead of PowerPoint). However, we do not want to use a paid Acrobat account for this. The reason is obvious: it would give any random user of the open user profile access to personal documents.Acrobat Reader would do the trick here.However, it seems that if Acrobat is installed, Acrobat Reader cannot be installed alongside it.Is that correct? And if so, are there any possible workarounds?

We have Adobe for Teams, and I can't find the Global Settings page, to permanently disable the signature audit report page from automatically being added to the end of the document each time we get a digital signature. Help is appreciated.

hi all!I want to create a form/template out of an existing .pdf with editable text fields.Is there a way that text fields can automatically be transformed into form-fields so that it can be recognized when choosing the form-function under tools or do I have to create the form field by field on my own?Many thanks,Markus

When I try to draw using Fill & Sign, I get the "The operation failed because Adobe Acrobat encountered an unknown error" error only when I click on the PDF for the first time. If I close the error and try again, I can draw (as seen in the video). Some PDFs don't work at all. What is the exact problem with the PDF (attached)? We are trying to debug this, see what's the exact problem and fix it. Some of our clients have errors with PDFs and we don't know where to look for the exact problem. Please don't suggest rebooting, reinstalling and other unseless fixes. Some PDFs work with no issue. It's not an OS or Acrobat version problem. It's the PDF. Optimizing the PDF also doesn't work. I tried CLI tools like "qpdf" to fix it with no success. I want to see the exact error in logs and why it doesn't like this PDF. 

What's the keyboard shortcut to change the status to complete for review comments. I'm sure there is one—I have used it ages ago but I forgot. Can anyone please let  me know that?

I was editing the text field but the font was Minon Pro by default and it stated that I did not have Open Sans.  Therefore I downloaded Open Sans from Google Fonts and installed the fonts and now in acrobat pro it does not allow me to edit anywhere it has Open Sans.  I tried to edit the text and nothing, no response.  I changed the font to see if another font would work in the text field but no change.  It no longer allows me to edit anywhere it shows Open Sans.  I've somehow made things worse after installing Open Sans as before I could edit and the font was "Minon Pro", but now I can't edit any text where it shows "Open Sans".   Pls, help.

All I have is the "share" option, which does not work for our business needs. I have Acrobat 24.002.20895

Dear sir, Greetings for you! I want to purchase the premium version of Adobe acrobat reader. There are options for monthly and yearly payments but there is no option for lifetime payment. Other apps offer lifetime payment option as well. I want to purchase the premium version for lifetime. Please include lifetime option in the payments option.  Thanks, Sincerely, Yours customer, Qasim, Pakistan 

Hi All, I am looking for a code or a way to compress a adobe PDF using linux script.

Adobe,   Please remove the AI Assistant from the top tool bar in Adobe or give the app users a way to hide that feature.  I'm sure there is a group of people who find this tool useful and I am well aware there is a check box in the settings page that claims to remove the AI functions but it does not.  I'm kindly asking that the Adobe engineers just make that check box work so when it is selected, the AI features tool stops poping up in the top corner when ever I open a document, the tool bar button can be completely hidden, and make the AI just hide in the background for when there is a chance the end user would like to enable this feature.  A lot of mature, professional, and understanding software developers take into consideration that feedback from the end users is paramount to developing a viable program.  What is happening now is not just pothetic but  unprofessional and detrimental to most people who use Adobe Acrabat.   Please upvote this in th

Hi,The "Preflight" tool is not working for me. I have the latest version of Acrobat. When I click on the "Preflight" option in the "Print Production" panel, nothing happens. All other items in the "Print Production" panel work fine. I got a new computer two weeks ago, and our admin installed all updates. Everything else works correctly. Even in the "Standards" tab, there is a link to "Open Preflight," but that doesn’t work either. Where could the problem be? Could it be connected to some Windows 11 permissions? But then again, the "Edit PDF" tools and text editing work without any problem. Additionally, after starting Acrobat, I sometimes get a popup window about a "manual installation." When I click on it, my browser opens but only shows a 404 error page. Could this be related to the issue? I really don’t know what else to try, and I use Preflight often, so this limitation is quite problematic for me. Thanks in advance for your help. 

How do I fix the issue?

This is driving me crazy. After this last update, the "What's New" window keeps opening whenever I launch Acrobat, and it just slows everything down. Which, is so annoying when I just need to open a PDF. And it makes me look like a bananahead when I'm trying to share a PDF on a meeting, and have to mess around with these crazy windows. Literally wasting everyone's time. Acrobat is one of my favorite programs because it's so easy, it's fast, I don't have to worry about any nonsense. Why would I? I'm just looking at a PDF! Please tell me there is a way to turn this off. I appreciate the updates, and I know you have to let people know what they are, but the incessant pop ups have to stop. Send me an email blast. Whatever it takes. I'm begging you.  If there is a way to turn all of that off, please, someone let me know. 

Hi All. I've got a weird one. One of our users can sign documents, but then no one else is able to view her signature. These are for contracts she signs and then stores on Sharepoint. If anyone else access that document, they cannot see her signature. If she accesses the same document in Sharepoint, she can see her signature. Any ideas? Thanks

Acabo de realizar suscripción a acrobat pro y no me deja editar un pdf

Estou tentando realizar a conversão de um documento PDF em PDF A  , toda vez que realizo a conversão me apresenta a seguinte mensagem : Este arquivo requer conformidade com o padrão PDF/A e foi aberto no modo somente leitura para impedir modificações" Como fazer a configuração correta, para que o documento seja convertido no padrão PDF/A? Quando eu faço o download tento verificar se tem alguma informação nas propriedades do documento sobre ser um PDF/A. Mas não tem.  O que preciso fazer: assinar um documento digitalmente (com certificado) e após isso ele ser baixado como PDF/A (pois precisará ser arquivado) 

Hallo zusammen, Ich habe im Forum schon einzelne Posts gefunden, wo ähnliche Probleme beschrieben wurden. Die dort vorgeschlagenen Lösungen habe ich ausprobiert. Leider ohne Erfolg. Zunächst nochmal das Problem im Detail:Nach Start von Adobe Acrobat wird das Anmeldefenster angezeigt. Eingabe von Username und Passwort wird scheinbar akzeptiert und das Anmeldefenster schließt sich. Es dauert dann so 3-5 Sekunden bis das Anmeldefenster erneut angezeigt wird. Acrobat selbst ist wärend dieser Prozedur gesperrt und nicht verwendbar. Manchmal kommt nach der erfolgten Anmeldung (Fenster hat sich geschlossen) sogar im Browser der Hinweis, dass ich angemeldet bin und da weiter machen kann wo ich aufgehört habe. Ist aber nicht der Fall. Acrobat ist weiterhin gesperrt. Was habe ich alles schon ausprobiert?Anmeldung in meinem Konto (Web) geht ohne Probleme (Username und Passwort also OK)Abo ist noch aktiv und wird bezahltTLS 1.2 überprüft.

I've never felt the need to make a post or complaint like this for any software in more than 25 years of using Windows and Macintosh personal computers. But the new user interface in Acrobat is just awful. It is counterintuitive, illogical, and imposes a huge productivity hit. I am thankful the new UI can be deactivated but concerned that at some point, that will no longer be an option.

I have seen this conversation many times with so many recommended solutions, but none have worked for me. For years, I have sent hundreds of attached pdf files through the adobe share button.  It now only gives me the option of sending a link ... which I hate.  Can someone please tell me how to correct this ridiculous change?  I have spent hours on this, got it working then it defaulted back to link vs attachment.  Thank you.
