I have Acrobat as a part of my “package” (for decades).  Suddenly, when I try to open, create, read, etc. any PDF, I have to “start a new trial, or purchase that I all ready own.  I can’t seem to link the Adobe apps I have with the files I need to use/create.  How do I recreate that linkage?

Every time I "print to PDF" from anywhere, the document automatically opens in Adobe. How do i get this to stop happenng? 

I just wanted to convert (or combine) multiple docx files in Acrobat and was baffled when it showed me, docx wasn’t supported.In the convert tool, the open dialogue won’t even show docx as supported file type.Every support and help article I’ve found reads as if Word is a dependency for this to work? Why?There is nowhere advertised that I need Word for this tool to work, one of the primary reasons to use Acrobat. I don’t own Word and I don’t want to own Word.It gets more absurd from there when I try thinking about a reason for that.The first that comes to mind with proprietary formats is licensing but other programs can do with no problem and Adobe themselves offer the conversion online.Yes, I could use the online tools but why should I? I pay for Acrobat and even inside of Acrobat, there is clear as day stated “choose one of the formats: docx, xlsx, txt” but then docx is not supported. What?If that’s a technical “limitation” because Word is used for that conversion, this is a major re

I almost exclusively use Acrobat to view architectural plans for bidding.  AI assistant keeps asking to summarize architectural plans (absolutely ludicrous) and it is BEYOND ANNOYING.  I have already turned it ‘off’ but the banner appears every freaking time.  How do I make it stop?

All the suggested google and AI tips do nothing, what am I missing, aside, loosing all my Sunday and a lot of hair I’ve pulled out!! I am needing to set up adobe to prepare files for sending, changing permissions so others can view, please please help… Thank you. 

I have a subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud Pro and also Adobe Acrobat Pro, but when I install the 3rd Acrobat pro, it told me that I had exceeded my licenses. When I just had Creative Cloud Pro, I had 2 installations, 1 CC install on my laptop and 1 CC install on my school pc. I needed to put another installation on a 3rd PC so I purchased the Adobe Acrobat Pro license.  Based on what I read on the license, I am allowed 2 installations, so Considering I have CC and Acrobat Pro, I should be able to have 4 installations so why am I being limited to just 2?

I’m working with some official documents such as NBI Clearance PDFs, and sometimes I notice issues like editing restrictions or files not displaying correctly after saving or sharing.Has anyone experienced similar problems when using Adobe Acrobat for official or government-related documents?Also, what settings or workflow do you recommend to avoid any file corruption or validation issues?

When I open a PDF file I can scoll for a few seconds then I can't and then the PDF closes automaticallyI have no idea why this is happening. I have cleaned my hard drive from any thing that could be affecting anything related to this problem.So HELP I pay for Adobe each month and now I can't really use it 

I can't find "add text comment" (without a border) tool in August 2023 Acrobat.When I choose another similar sounding tool called "insert text comment" and clicking on a newly-created blank page, nothing happens. (I don't know what this for in either old or new version. It may have something to do with cursor?)Workaround is to use "add text comment" (with a border), change properties to always have no border displayed and resize the border after typing.The old version behavior of "add text comment" appeared to add text at position clicked on a page and then flowed right until reaching the edge of the document before wrapping to a line below original click.Is there a way to accomplish the old behavior of the "add text comment" without a border tool in the new version?

I tried even to sign out, and sign in again, but it didn’t work, also my account is linked by two email, that’s why I tried to login with the other email, but it didn’t work as well.

Hello and thank you!I made an interactive brochure in indesign. My QC team is asking me to remove the unintended drop down function attached to my hyperlinks when viewed in a browser (safari/chrome). I have tried making the hyperlinks in indesign as well as in acrobat as a test. It happens to both PDFs and seems to be random, not all links. I have quite a bit of experience but am completely unsure of what to try next. I need those pesky drop downs to go away! Thank you in advance.I am using the latest CC indesign and acrobat.  

Hello everyone,I am reaching out to the community to report a persistent issue regarding the print engine in Adobe Acrobat (and Acrobat Reader).[Problem Description] Adobe Acrobat consistently overrides or ignores the duplex (double-sided) printing configurations set in my printer driver. Even when I manually enable "Two-sided printing" through the 'Properties' button within the Acrobat print dialog, the software seems to bypass these instructions and proceeds with single-sided printing.[Environment] Printer: Epson L3100 Series (Manual Duplex Model) Software: Adobe Acrobat / Acrobat Reader (Latest version) OS: Windows 10/11 [Key Observations] This issue is exclusive to Adobe software. I have tested the same printer with at least three other PDF editors and various web browsers (Chrome, Edge), and they all handle the duplex settings perfectly. The printer driver's manual duplexing UI, which usually appears to guide the user in flipping the paper, fails to trigger only when printin

I create forms with multiple fields. Fields are set up the same way by type. So my text fields are multi-line with scrolling, spell-check and rich text enabled. All Actions, Format, Validation and Calculate options are set the same. Obviously, the positions vary and the name field differs, however, the other options are identical in these tabs.On occasions, some of the fields will accept input and when you click away the field looks blank. If you click on the field it shows the text which was entered. In the same Adobe PDF form, some fields will have this issues while others work perfectly.I changed all my form fields to use "Auto" font size, which appear to make the forms more stable. Now, I found this doesn't always work.I recently tried to find information on best practices, causes, troubleshooting or anything that could help me ensure stable forms. I have found nothing except change the font size, which I had already guessed at as noted.My latest guess to correct the problem is to

This just started happening last week.In Word I have added alt text to images. Create a pdf - no alt text. used “Save As Adobe PDF”, Acrobat plugin: “Create PDF”  and “Create PDF and Run Action: Make Accessible”. All same result - no alt text. Tried different images.btw asked other people to create PDF - the alt text is in the PDF. Any ideas of what is going wrong? 

I have a two‑page PDF in Adobe Acrobat, and each page is standard letter size. I need to combine these two pages into one continuous, vertically long page so it prints as a single sheet without any visible page breaks. The background is a light beige, so the final page needs to look seamless with no lines or breaks between the original pages.I am currently using Adobe Acrobat Pro 2020 (Classic 1), Version 2020.005.How can I accomplish this in my version of Acrobat?

It seems we ran out of activations for our 21 licences for Adobe Acrobat 2020. We recently switched out alot of our old pcs and notebooks for new ones and did not deactivate or uninstall Adobe Acrobat 2020 before discarding them.How can we get back our activations when we do not have access to the old hardware (the harddrives were shredded)?Thank you!

https://community.adobe.com/questions-9/conditional-equation-based-on-checkbox-1300826 So, my script has an issue where it'll do this formula even if the originals value is 1. Now, people shouldn't be putting 1 original and checking double-sided, but they are, and it's bothering me that the script is halving it when it shouldn't. I was thinking I want something like if var OG = 1, event.value = OG * CP, but putting that seems to screw up the rest of the formula. So then I was thinking, is it possible to have two if statements before the result so that I can make the other statements conditional on OG being more than 1, but I can't seem to find the right syntax for that either. As it stands my formula is like this:// Relevant Field References    var TS = this.getField("Check Box5").valueAsString;var OTS = this.getField("Check Box1").valueAsString;    var OG = Number(this.getField("Text3").valueAsString);    var CP = Number(this.getField("Text13").valueAsString); if(OTS !== "Off") event.

For years, I've used interactive PDFs exported directly from InDesign to quickly present layouts and designs. This looks best when presented in full-screen mode, where you can use some of the page transitions offered in InDesign, for example. With my new MacBook Pro and MacOS Big Sur and also Monterey, Acrobat no longer shows the page transitions. What am I doing wrong?

I have Adobe Creative Cloud and can open my document in Acrobat using my password that I created.  But when I open my document with my password in Acrobat and click on EDIT, it asks for the password again but won’t accept it.  I click CANCEL and tells me that it’s a secured document.  I clearly have the password or it wouldn’t have opened in the first place.  There is no other password.  So what’s the problem here?  I’ve found suggestions saying to go into setting to change the security etc, but it again asks for the password to unlock the document, so that clearly isn’t the fix for this.Why won’t Acrobat let me edit my own document? 

When a page is replaced, the links should remain in position. Instead, there is seemingly a bug that rotates every link on the page ninety degrees. If I try inserting a new page and paste the links, the links are also pasting ninety degrees.

I'm trying to open files from Harmon.ie in Adobe and receiving the following error:  I spoke with a rep from harmon.ie, and they recommended that I update the regedit:  That being said, I’ve tried the following and am still encountering the error. Any thoughts or suggestions on how to get Harmon.ie to open PDFs without the issue above? Would I need to update a setting in Adobe or Regedit?
