Questions

I have been using the same document that was created using Prepare a Form. I input SSN's and use dashes between the numbers. This has worked fine, however, today the form looked different, and it started using a different font. Unfortunately, the dashes disappear after you click out of the box and is blank where the dashes should go. I also put dates and if I put 3-3-23 the form would automatically change it to 03/03/2023 which was a great feature. Now it will not let me enter the date without entering the full year. This part is no big deal just makes it inconvenient. I am not entirely sure how to fix this. 

I need to overlay two multi-page PDFs - one containing the main content, the second containing a unique label at the bottom of each page - to produce a single PDF where each page shows its own corresponding label.The Background and Watermark tools get me closest (Tools → Edit PDF → Background / Watermark).Both accept a multi-page PDF as the label source, but then only allow a single numeric page number to be selected from it, so the same label appears on every page. If there were a "use all pages" or page-range option at that point, this would be straightforward.Is there a way to achieve a true page-by-page overlay in Acrobat Pro?Thanks. 

Does anyone know how to make the Win 11 taskbar show a separte icon for each PDF that's open? By default, Windows 11 likes to combine together all open files by program.  Looking in the Windows community forums, I fould that we were given the option to turn off that "feature" last year (I'm running build 22621.2861, ver 22H).  So I set the tasbar to Never combine, and it stopped combining my Excel, Word, etc files. Each now shows separately on the taskbar. However, my PDF's are still being combined into a single icon. I know I can click on the icon then select which PDF to work on, but my preference is to have a separate icon on the taskbar for each PDF I have open.  Since Windows 11 does this for other for other programs now, I'm guessing PDFs are being combined due to some Adobe setting. Does anyone know if that can be changed so my Win 11 taskbar shows a separate icon for each PDF I have open?  Thanks! Thx

Is there a way to update a shared adobe acrobat link? I sent a pdf to a client for proofing and they made comments and I want to update the pdf with the new information without sending a whole new link.

After combining files and trying to save to netdocuments the users get an error message  with a crash report.  Attached is some of the crash report.   !DOCTYPE AdobeCrashReport SYSTEM "AdobeCrashReporter.dtd"><crashreport serviceVersion="23.0.0.202412091359_9601250" clientVersion="23.0.0.202412091359_9601250" applicationName="Adobe Acrobat" applicationVersion="26.001.21462" build="0" source="Windows-Client" crashType="n/a"><time year="2026" month="4" day="23" hour="17" minute="42" second="57" timeoffset="-360" timezone="Central Daylight Time" crsessionduration="70"/><user guid="e0eade2b-d13c-4b34-8282-96827e524de1"/><system platform="Windows 11 Pro" osversion="11.0" osbuild="26200" applicationlanguage="en-us" userlanguage="en-US" oslanguage="en-US" ram="16040" machine="13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1365U" model="Intel64 Family 6 Model 186 Stepping 3" cpuCount="12" cpuType="8664" cpuFreq="2688 MHz" processorArchitecture="9"/><gpu><gpuinfo availability

I currently have the Acrobat extension installed in Google Chrome, and find it very useful to open online pdf files that I just want to read but not necessarily save. However, when I know that I want to save the file, it would be helpful to download it and open it in the Acrobat app. I know I can do that by opening it in the extension first and then choosing “Open in desktop app”, but is there any way to bypass the extension and directly open it in the app?According to the Adobe Help article “Open PDFs in Acrobat Reader from Chrome”, there should be a way to get a ‘prompt’ to “Open in Acrobat Reader”, however I can’t seem to get that to show up. (The article is from 2022 so the information may not be current.) I’ve tried it both with the extension enabled and disabled; when enabled, online pdf’s just automatically open in the extension, while when disabled they open in the Chrome pdf viewer instead.If there is (still) a way to download online pdf files and directly open them in the Acr

Beginning w/ the update to Acrobat Pro v2026.001.21529 Mac, images/files from xd files are not viewing properly. See example attached (I have more if needed). These are both legacy files created in xd a few yrs ago as well as new files created in the latest version of xd. Users within our org who have updated Acrobat to the latest version are experiencing this issue. Those who have yet to update are NOT having any issues. Images/files do view properly in Chrome. We have experimented w/ every single preference in Acrobat to no avail. Note that I am running Tahoe v26.2

I have had Creative Cloud for years and just discovered that it was what has been causing my computer to lock up so (after A LOT of frustration) I removed it. I still need Acrobat PRO on my PC though and I can only find download options that also contain creative cloud. Does anyone know of a way to get around this? TIA!!!

My Acrobat Pro just update this morning to Continuous Release Version 2024.002.20759. When filling out a PDF form, I can no longer navigate by using the Tab key.  Every time I press Tab, it opens a comment box for me to make a comment, rather than moving to the next field as intended.  I looked all thru the settings and cannot figure out how to disable this.  This has never happened until now and is incredibly frustrating!

There was a recent update to my acrobat.There are many changes I am trying to adapt to, but one important one for me is I need to be able to click 'edit' and drag to select multiple objects/text boxes on a PDF. Why can I no longer do this?Also, anytime I open a PDF it freezes for a bit and just spins and spins. This is happening on both of my computers (one Mac one PC).

I wanted to update my signature and ever since I did that, I have had issues using the Fill-in and Sign function. Every time I select the tab it crashes. I have tried to install/uninstall, it is up to date, and have deleted three files of saved initials but nothing has worked.  This is the full report: Translated Report (Full Report Below)-------------------------------------Process:               AdobeAcrobat [3141]Path:                  /Applications/Adobe Acrobat DC/Adobe Acrobat.app/Contents/MacOS/AdobeAcrobatIdentifier:            com.adobe.Acrobat.ProVersion:               26.001.21529 (26.001.21529)Code Type:             ARM-64 (Native)Parent Process:        Exited process [2962]User ID:               501Date/Time:             2026-05-12 00:49:00.1725 -0400OS Version:            macOS 12.7.6 (21H1320)Report Version:        12Anonymous UUID:        70E8C5CF-FA7A-FD3A-A11E-0A3037D171AATime Awake Since Boot: 2200 secondsSystem Integrity Protection: enabledCrashed Thread:        0  

I’m using a Brother MFC 5900dw and Brother MFC 2750dw. Until 6 months ago they would scan multiple pages automatically.My computer is a DELL with Windows 11. Both printers & laptop have all updates.This is very frustrating and the lack of any tech support for my big monthly billed account is awful.  

I have Number field in an Adobe Acrobat form that is a calculation of other entered number fields. In the Format tab, the decimal is set to one (1) decimal point (ie 27.5, 11.6, etc.). However, I’m wondering how to write a code to remove the ‘.#’ from the number value only when the decimal displays ‘.0’Example:236.0 should be  listed as only 236Since the value is always going to be different when the equation triggers, I can’t write to a specific variable. Thank you for your help.

Eveytime I try I select a document to send for a signature request, it keeps popping up "unsupported file type".

PCを買い替えて、Windows 11になりました。新しいPCでAcrobat Proを起動すると、白いポップアップ画面が表示され、その画面が閉じられずAcrobat本体を操作できません。Creative Cloud Proのプランに入っています。Creative Cloud Desktopではプラン情報は表示されています。Web版のAdobeアカウントでも契約プランは確認できます。パソコン操作は苦手なので、お恥ずかしながらchatGPTに相談しました。以下は実施済みです。・Acrobat Proのアンインストールと再インストール・Creative Cloudからのログアウト、再ログイン・OOBEフォルダのリセット・AcrobatのDCフォルダのリセット・Shiftキーを押しながらのAcrobat起動・こちらで紹介されていた対処法・Acrobat Cleaner Toolによるクリーンアップそれでも、Acrobat Pro起動時の白いポップアップが消えず、操作不能です。ライセンス認証または起動時Welcome画面の読み込み不良を疑っています。対処法は何かないでしょうか。仕事上PDFが使えないのは非常に困ります。

Have a radio button when triggered to display a business card as either single or double sided. When single sided is selected, it displays as it should. Moment information is keyed into the fields below it; the single sided button deselects itself. Double Sided is unaffected and are linked to each other. Any idea as to what may cause this?The radios do trigger hidden fields where some of the fields below would display in a cards preview window.
