PDF pages rotate or flip automatically when selecting text in Acrobat Pro

Question

Hello,I am experiencing an issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro on Windows. Whenever I open a PDF and try to select text (for highlighting or copying), the page view suddenly rotates or flips automatically. This makes it very difficult to read and edit the document.I have already tried changing the page display settings and disabling auto-rotate options, but the problem still continues.Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a permanent fix or a setting I need to adjust?Thank you in advance for your help.

Thanks for posting your question to our community, Mehmet. I am sorry that when you try to select text, the page view rotates or flips. Does this happen while you are attempting to select the text for highlighting or editing, Mehmet, or after you select the text?

What type of computer is Acrobat installed on? What operating system is running on the computer? Finally, Mehmet, how do you select the text with a mouse, touchscreen, stylus, or trackpad?

You can find more information on highlighting and editing text in Adobe Acrobat Pro at https://adobe.ly/46j9kaF. I look forward to hearing back from you, Mehmet. ^JW
