Acrobat not showing text of graphs

Community Beginner ,
Mar 24, 2025 Mar 24, 2025

When I create documents in pages and then export to PDF, when I open this in Adobe the text from the graphs is missing, however when I view it in other PDF viewers such as Preview it is displaying correctly.

Hi @george_1236

 

Sorry for the troubled experience. 

We are aware of this issue and have fixed it. However, the fix is currently part of an optional update, meaning the update won't be installed automatically. 

Please check the Release notes: https://adobe.ly/4l7x7Qm for more information:

  • 4502288: Text goes missing on opening PDF whereas only graphics/images are displayed

To check for any pending updates, launch Acrobat > Help > Check for updates. 

 

Let us know how it works.

Many thanks Tariq. Unfortunately, when I click on check for updates it tells me my current version is up to date but the problem persists.
