Hi,I haven't used adobe in a month or so and there has been an up date. I only use this to highlight electricity lines on a map. When using the highlighter I highlight the line I want and then when I stop the line goes vertical or horozontal, which is on no use to me. How can I stop this? Regards,Brendan

I want to post rename individual pdf file (customer invoices ) names (john_donald.pdf to john_donald_december_2024.pdf)of 70 pdf files (different names) I converted from an Excel workmap to pdf (macro) Is that possible with Acrobat reader etc? 

I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro. I used to have the ability to scan and save a document as a pdf file. Then edit that saved document and re-save as the same file name. I recently got a new computer and re-downloaded the program. Now every time I make changes to a document, I cannot simply "save". It forces me to "save as" every time (thus, creating a 2nd file). I'm sure I'm just missing something in the settings but I can't find it.Any thoughts? Thanks!Pam

I have always downloaded Calif gov tax forms, filled in data (name, address, etc) and printed the forms successfully. Now, when I try printing the form I had inserted my data into, it only prints the boilerplate government form. None of the data I inserted is showing. It looks good on my screen but the printout is missing the data I added. I have deleted and re-added my printer (HP Envy Photo 7855) to no avail. I am using an iMac running the latest version of Sequoia. I went back and selected documents from prior years (that I know printed correctly in the past) and printed them with the same results. Only the standard downloaded outline prints with all my added data missing.

I have five text fields (Text1 to Text5) and five corresponding checkboxes (Check Box1 to Check Box5). I need to create a script such that when a checkbox is selected, the value of the corresponding text field is displayed in a separate field. If multiple checkboxes are selected, the values of the associated text fields should be concatenated and displayed, separated by commas. Could you advise on how to implement this functionality using a custom script?

My office recently had an issue with a document that we had redacted in Adobe.  When the redacted version of the document was forwarded to the recipient, that person was able to convert/open the document in WORD and view the unredacted document.  Is there any work around in Adobe for this?    

My PDF ( i did not create it) had fillable boxes. After filling all the boxes i tried digitally signing the form but was having inssues with my password. Worried that i would lose all the info i input into the fillable boxes, i saved it to my desktop. My desktop version has the information i input, but the text box has a "plus" sign in the right corner (presumably one would use to enlarge the box and read all the info in it) , however the text box is greyed out and clicking the plus icon does not open the text box to read everything. And i can not edit it or retreive any of the info i input in it. i attached the before and after screen shot of one of the pdf sections.  i need the information in the now greyed out text boxes. Clicking the plus sign does nothing.     

I have two different combo boxes that are supposed to fill separate text fields. And they both work fine, unless I add both codes at the same time. One of them just stops working.I don't really know javascript, I followed a tutorial to set them. But I don't know how to make both work. Can someone help me? These are my two scripts: var ComboBox1Data ={ "Example1":{ description: "blah blah",type: "blah blah",cost: "blah blah" },"Example2":{ description: "blah blah",type: "blah blah",cost: "blah blah" }};function SetFieldValues(cComboBox1){this.getField("ExampleDes").value = ComboBox1Data[cComboBox1].description;this.getField("ExampleType").value = ComboBox1Data[cComboBox1].type;this.getField("ExampleCost").value = ComboBox1Data[cComboBox1].cost;} ////var ComboBox2Data ={ "Example3":{ name: "blah blah",part: "blah blah" },"Example4":{ name: "blah blah",part: "blah blah" }};function SetFieldValues(cComboBox2){this.getField("ExampleName").value = ComboBox2Data[cComboBox2].nam

I've recently noticed that when I go into Ink Manager and select Convert all Spots to Process, then save the file, close it, and open it again, the spot colors are back. Has anyone else experienced this?

Workarounds for error 105 in Adobe Acrobat Pro?  I work in IT Support for my organization. Several users are reporting this error. A screenshot is attached of the error message we are getting when trying to save PDF files. This is happening with several files, not just one, which leads me to believe it's an issue with the software than with a specific document or file.  For troubleshooting, we have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application, disabling and reenabling accounts, deleting the account and opening a brand new one, saving the document in different ways, and manually updating Adobe Acrobat Pro to the latest version directly from the Adobe website. The issue continues to be ongoing.

Since today the digital signature via the "Use a certificate" function doesn't work anymore.I get to the point where I choose the position, then it's asking me which signature I want to use and then when I click on "Sign" nothing happens. The whole window where it's asking me for the signature won't go away. It just stays there, blinks for a short moment and then stays like that. I can close it, but I can't sign anything.Weirdly this is happening in the whole company right now, so I wanted to ask if it is a general problem with Acrobat right now or if anyone know's how to fix it.

I've always opened PDFs through Edge, but recently I needed to install Adobe Acrobat to sign them with an A3 digital certificate. The thing is, after I installed this damn program, it inserted some configuration into my Edge and every time I open a PDF, the Adobe logo and the "Edit with Acrobat" button (in Portuguese because I'm Brazilian) appear, as shown in the attachment. It didn't install any extensions in Edge, but these things still appear in it. I've already uninstalled Acrobat from my PC, restored Edge's settings, and deleted cookies and cache, but nothing worked. Does anyone have a solution to recommend?   

Hello, I do not know a lot about scripting and have tried to do this on my own, but have failed. I have a form that calculates a deposit based on ContractTotal. If  ContractTotal is less than 3500 it uses the ContractTotal. If it is over 3500 it will caluclate a deposit number by dividing the ContractTotal in half.  Everything works great, but now comes the ask. Some individuals would like to edit the 50% option.  Is that possible? My script - very simple var Dep50 = this.getField("ContractTotal").value;if( Dep50 < 3500) event.value = Dep50;else event.value = Dep50 / 2; Explanation of what is requested: ContractTotal = 10000it will figure the Deposit as 5000 What my guys want is the ability to overwrite the 5000 with something else, like 6000It should be noted that the form uses the Dep50 value to figure a Contract Balance, which is ContractTotal - Dep50.  Thank you for help.

Okay so I'm an author. In order to set my book to print it has to be in PDF. My formater missed a few little things so I figured no problem I'll edit the pdf (I have dc pro) but when I put some proper spacing in between some lines in one section the text didn't over flow to the next page.It's even covering up the page number at the bottom and then just continuing out of sight. It must be easily fixable to link boxes together but I've had no luck!I've been researching all day and everyone says go to Properties>Options and make sure multi-line is checked, but I don't seem to have that option.  When I right click I do get document properties but then it's Description>Security>Fonts> initial view> custom> advanced And looking in those tabs doesn't seem to give me anything either. 

Hello, I logged into Acrobat DC Pro on a co-workers computer because it was not allowing login do to javajscrpit not being enable, but it was enable (in all web browsers and in Acrobat DC Pro).  My account is currently still logged in Acrobat DC Pro on the co-workers computer.  I have tried "open your acrobat > click help > click sign in/out" and "Clicking on my account name in the upper right corner then clicked sign out" both bring a singout pop up and them the pop up goes all white and stays there never siging me out. I have waited at the white pop up for 10 mins.  I have also tried uninstalling, remove left over file and removed windows regesty intries then reinstall and I was still logged into Acrobat DC Pro after the reinstall.  How do I log out of Acrobat DC Pro when Acrobat DC Pro will not finsh the log out process? Thank you. 

I have a problem with printing through acrobat. After sending a large job, the printer takes an extremely long time to actually produce the pages. When printing a PDF, especially a large one, the printer rollers will start up and it'll only print one or two pages. Then, the printer completely stops. Five to ten seconds later, it'll start up again and print another couple pages. It repeats this process for all 50 pages until it finally gets everything done. I figured it was the printer, but it isn't. The issue happens across multiple printers. It also never seems to happen to anyone else, and it only happens when I print PDFs using Acrobat. When I print from Chrome or Edge it doesn't happen. Is there a setting of some kind on Acrobat that might be making the printer take a really long time to process each page after the job is sent?

Ok, so I've created a 16 page pdf with vector art, no photos in Illustrator 2024 on a macbook pro, then exported to PDF. I then had to add dozen of hyperlinks in Acrobat (Because Illustrator wouldn't let me create more than one hyperlink in a text box! Really??? Can't believe it.) Somehow this ballooned my file size from 5.6 to 10.3 mb. I've tried reducing file size, optimizing the file, reducing the ppi, but it remains at 10.3mb. My client needs to post this on their website and I need to reduce the file size and retain the hyper links. When I go to the audit space, it shows me that the culprit is "piece information" (see attached screen shot). Is there a way to reduce "piece information". I desperately need to reduce this file size. Please let me know if there's a way.Thank you in advance for your help.Diane

My company used Microsoft Office prior to this year. I created a form in which my associates had to report sales activity to me via a PDF by clicking a button I made in the PDF, then it would automatically email via Outlook to me. Now that Outlook is gone and we use Gmail, is there a way I can achieve the same thing via the PDF to open Chrome, then email the PDF to me via Gmail?

I am trying to create a form in Acrobat from a design I have created in InDesign. I have tried exporting multiple various types of PDF, including the most basic with no interactive elements, but when I bring into Acrobat and choose "Prepare form," none of the fields I create have "Validation" in the properties dialogue box. Simple Date field does not have validate as an option. I have tried multiple InDesign docs I have and none of them work.The only solution I have is to open the InDesign generated PDF, open in Mac Preview, choose Print and export PDF from print dialogue. Then importing into Acrobat I can now add fields that have data validation.Any ideas why this is so wonky?Many thanks. (MacOS 14.7.1, Acrobat 24.4.20272.0, InDesign 2025)

I have Acrobat XI Pro and I am writing my books using MS Word and using Acrobat to convert it with the embedded SVG images to PDF files for publication in Kindle.It works, but I am getting inconsistent thickness in the lines of the SVG images. I know it is not the original images because they were all made with Illustrator and all have the same line thickness, but once converted to a PDF file, some shows up as thicker lines while a few do not. Kindle prints the thick lines as thick lines and thin lines as thin lines so it is something Acrobat is doing.Is there something I can do to avoid this thick line problem

So, I was correctly charged after 7 days of trial but I want to know if there's some way that I can cancel it? And receive my money back? Was on mobile adobe.
