Hello Using Acrobat Pro with “Acrobat Sign” I have a stack of documents to be signed by multiple parties and am running into an issue with how to collect those signatures in an efficient manner for the signers, while being able to maintain the documents as individual documents after signing.If I use the standard "Request e-Signatures" I can have multiple people sign as wanted, but if I upload multiple documents through the web they are combined into a single PDF, which means that I cannot separate the documents after they've been signed, as the file is locked on signing, they just exist a single PDF, which doesn't work for filing purposes (e.g. I need to file the separate documents separately, not all in the same place).I tried using Bulk Send for signatures, where I can send multiple documents, but I cannot assign signatures, and it wants each signer to sign all signature boxes, which does not work. It's obviously meant for collecting signatures on a standardized form from multiple pe

Hi all, so I’ve got a scaling issue that doesn’t seem to be answered by any of the questions asked previously and the solutions they came up with haven’t worked. Basically, the UI looks like shit and is difficult to use. The icons are huge, but if I click on Fill and Sign, the letters are tiny. I’ve tried changing my General settings and page layout settings, but it just stays mixed and garbage looking. Is there any fix to just make this go back to the older version like they had previously? Or are we stuck with this poorly coded mess?  Window sizes crop if I’m using my system settings so I can’t hit “ok” or cancel. Can’t use my scroll wheel on right side of preferences window, only the left sideAny fixes for these?Thanks for the community and I appreciate all of your help on previous issues! 

Hi -I need to have table summaries for all my PDFs with tables to meet accessibility requirements. I automate the creation of Word docs with tables, then batch them into PDFs manually. I dont see anyway to create the table summary in Word though - alt text for the table does not seem to transfer to the PDF. Is there any part of a Microsoft Word document that will transfer over as the table summary when i create the PDF? It would save me a LOT of time, as i can only automate the Word doc, not the PDF file thanks if anyone has ideas or if i missing something -Kimberly

In pdf edit mode, acrobat no longer allows me to delete objects.  I can delete images, and text objects but I can not delete lines or rectangles.  I can select these objects, resize and move them.  Coppy and Past them but can not delete them.  I have reinstalled acrobat 4 times and the problem persists.  I have created a new user profile on the pc and the problem was resolved for 24 house but came back on the new profile. Coppying and pasting objects within edit mode also no longer works the same. 

Hello everyone, I’m working in Adobe Acrobat Pro 2026 Enterprise Edition and I’m struggling with basic image manipulation in the new interface. After inserting an image, I need to resize, crop, and reposition it, but the tools seem very limited.Here are the issues I’m running into: Resizing: The corner handles are difficult to use because the Quick Actions popup keeps appearing, and nearby text boxes interfere with the selection. Cropping: The popup also makes cropping difficult, and the crop handles are hard to grab. Adjust Objects panel: Sometimes the “Adjust Objects” section doesn’t appear at all when I select the image. Quick Actions: I know I can disable “Show Quick Actions on text selection,” but I rely on that feature for text editing, so I prefer not to turn it off. Layering: Bringing the image to the front doesn’t always solve the problem when trying to move, resize & crop the image. Is there a recommended workflow in Acrobat Pro 2026 for handling images? Specifica

Recently got “upgraded” to Adobe Acrobat Classic 2024; is there any way to make the user interface look like previous versions of Adobe? This new interface has drastically reduced usability. 

"An error has occurred. Please try again.""Access token provided is invalid or has expired." I have reinstalled, rebooted, even unsubscribed and resubscribed... to no avail. I have had to subscribe to DocuSign to get things done. Please Adobe, it shouldn't be this difficult!

Hi Experts,I am currently evaluating the Compare Files feature in Adobe Acrobat (for a POC), and I’ve encountered an issue that I’m not able to understand clearly.During comparison, Adobe is flagging certain content as both “Text Inserted” and “Text Deleted”, even though the text appears to be exactly the same in both versions of the document.Example (from comparison report): Text Inserted:"V000001 JANE DOE016200010 DO NOT MAIL MONTREAL-OUEST QC H4X 1N4" Text Deleted:"V000001 JANE DOE016200010 DO NOT MAIL MONTREAL-OUEST QC H4X 1N4" As shown above, both strings are identical, yet the tool is treating them as changes.Observation:No visible difference in text content However, other changes like font (ArialMT → Arial), font size (11 → 10), and color changes are also present in the comparison This behavior is being reported alongside actual formatting changesQuestions:How does Adobe Acrobat internally validate text differences in Compare Files? Are there known limitations or settings that

Hi.I was filling in a form pdf, its nearly finished and one of the lines needs my "signature".I inserted one using the "insert of draw a signature" function (mines a different language so I'm translating it the best I can), but then I reaslied a typo in previous response.But then I realised after "signing" the whole pdf it "locks" and I can't edit anything, and now I have to do the whole form all over again. Why would you have this stupid design? I searched all over the web and all I get is electronic signatures, which doesn't apply to my case.

I have had creative cloud pro since 2024. I went into acrobat pro to edit a pdf today and it said I needed to “reactivate my subscription,” but I never deactivated my subscription. It then says I need to upgrade now and when I click upgrade now, it says I need to pay for acrobat pro + AI assistant or acrobat standard. If I click the “reactivate subscription” button, a pop up comes up telling me that I am trying to purchase an incompatible subscription, Acrobat pro is included in my creative cloud pro subscription and I am paying $69.99 a month already. Why did it remove my full access to Acrobat Pro? How do I get my access back? 

Templates that previously worked fine are now terribly slow updating fields or entering information.However if I open same template in Chrome it’s fine except I can’t sign the document.Running Windows 11

Acrobat Pro stopped being able to remove anything from a page either using delete or cut yesterday. It does not give any error message, the object just doesn’t go away; when deleting (either with keyboard key or with right-click menu) it acts as if you never gave the command, and when cutting (either with ctrl-X or with right-click menu) it copies the object to the clipboard but doesn’t remove the original. This is only for trying to delete objects, the delete pages function is still working fine. I noticed this starting yesterday afternoon, and a Reddit thread was started this morning where five other users (at the time of my writing this post) are complaining of having the same issue today.https://www.reddit.com/r/Acrobat/comments/1vztnqq/unable_to_delete_objects_using_edit/I use the edit function of Acrobat Pro nearly everyday at work and have done so for many years, this is a brand new problem as of yesterday afternoon. I am running Acrobat Pro version 2026.001.21789 | 64-bit on a

Several users in my office are having the same issue in Acrobat as this user question here: Component Files opened from a Portfolio show as blank when opened. Closing and reopening the same file shows the document properly. | Community HOWEVER, for us, closing and reopening the file does not properly show the file and instead shows the same blank page. Below are example screenshots.Component file in a PDF PortfolioThe blank tab page shown after clicking “Open File” in a PDF Portfolio We found that deselecting the “Open documents as new tabs in the same window” option under Preferences > General fixed the issue, however, this is not a practical solution for us as it prevents us from opening multiple PDF files as tabs in the same window of Acrobat. Re-selecting that preference caused the PDF Portfolio issue to come back.I first encountered the problem roughly 2 weeks ago. The Acrobat application is up to date and being run on Windows 11 Enterprise operating system.

Hi everyone,I'm getting my documents ready for an online NBI appointment, and while reviewing my scanned ID in Adobe Acrobat, I noticed that the text and photo don't look as clear as I'd like.I scanned the document using my phone, but after opening the PDF in Acrobat, it still appears a little blurry. Since I'll be uploading it for verification through OnlineNBIClearance.ph, I want to make sure the document is clear and easy to read.I've already looked through Adobe's guide on scanned PDFs and tried a few basic suggestions, but the quality hasn't improved much.Does Acrobat have any tools or features that can enhance an existing scanned PDF, or is it better to rescan the document? Also, what scan settings (DPI, file format, color mode, etc.) do you recommend for official documents so they're clear enough for verification?I'd really appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Adobe Acrobat 26.001.21771 consistently crashes on Mac OS Tahoe 26.5.2 despite trashing prefs, restarting (multiple times), uninstalling and reinstalling Acrobat.This all started today from simply opening an existing PDF, selecting one page, and trying to print. When doing so, I got the spinning wheel of death.So I force-quit, tried the same process again, and got the same result: spinning wheel of death.I force-quit again, restarted my Mac, tried the same process again, and got the same result: spinning wheel of death.I force-quit again, did a hard shutdown and startup of my Mac, and this time, tried opening a different PDF to select one page to print, and got the same result: spinning wheel of death.I force-quit again, did a hard shutdown and startup of my Mac, and this time, tried opening Acrobat. After a few seconds: spinning wheel of death.I then trashed Acrobat prefs, restarted my Mac, tried opening Acrobat, and again, after a few seconds: spinning wheel of death.I then downloade

Ich nutze seit kurzem den Acrobat Pro 2020 und habe folgendes Problem:Wenn ich eine Datei speichern möchte, wähle ich "speichern unter", suche dann den entsprechenden Ordner und speichere die Datei. Möchte ich dann weitere Dateien im gleichen Ordner speichern, wurde mir in einer Vorversion der vorherige Speicherort (Ordner) angeboten, jetzt sehe ich immer nur den Ort, von dem aus die Datei geöffnet wurde und ich muss mich jedes mal wieder zum Zielordner durchklicken. Kann ich diese Einstellung ändern und wenn ja, wie?(Ich hoffe, ich habe es verständlich erklärt, bisher habe ich nirgendwo auch nur den kleinsten Hinweis auf eine mögliche Lösung gefunden...). Vielen Dank schon mal!

A user is having issues opening PDFs, everytime they a PDF it shows this error message. Can anyone help?? I have uninstalled, repaired, updated etc. 

Please reply to my question 

Thumbnail previews are enabled in acrobat pro preferences. Somehow in the recents list, the thumbnail previews are not showing up. I'm using the latest version on Windows 11 - 64 bit.What to do to fix this issue?They used to show up earlier for a long time. I didn't install any adobe software or updated anything. The thumbnails just stopped showing suddenly.   

Please describe the exact preference in Adobe Acrobat Pro that permanently disables the Home Screen feature. Please don't send a pointless link to directions that don't solve my problem. Tell me exactly how to disable this pointless and annoying feature.  

I have recently had an extremely provocative issue where Acrobat Reader would prompt me to save as a document installed on my machine instead of overwriting the original file upon clicking ctrl+s. I started looking for the cause of this issue, and upon tinkering with the settings, I finally solved it. I went to Preferences > Security (Enhanced) and unchecked “Enable Protected Mode at startup”.

I have a valid perpetual license for Adobe Acrobat XI Standard 11.0.23.I am replacing an old computer with a new one. The old computer is still available and Acrobat XI is working normally on it.On the old computer, however, Help > Deactivate is greyed out, so I cannot deactivate this installation.On the new computer, Acrobat accepts the serial number, but reports that the serial number is already being used on the maximum permitted number of computers. “Retry activation” does not help.The old computer is still available, so I am able to perform any required deactivation steps on it.Is there any way to release the activation of the old computer or have the activation count reset?I can provide the serial number privately to an Adobe employee if required.

When I open an empty W9 in acrobat and choose “fill & sign” look at how its typing out the fonts. They look wild. They look mismatched. its never done this before. so I went to preferences and changed fonts to arial but it didnt fix the issue. Side note: when i’m filling out this bug report theres a dropdown that says “Category” and i dont see acrobat listed in order for me to choose that option.  

Please
