Hi to All,

While using Adobe 25.001.20531 on Windows 11, the software becomes very slow when I move elements in the document, add or move images, add text or edit text—and even killing background processes doesn’t help.

I’ve already followed some guidelines by disabling caching, turning off Protected Mode at startup and disabling JavaScript, but I haven’t noticed any improvements.

What else could I look at?

 i attached an empty template of a tipical pdf that we edit

what i've noticed is that become very slowly each time adobe scan the pdf for searching text when i'm scrolling the documents

best regards

Hi there 

 

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out. 

 

Acrobat Reader is a freeware application used to read, Annotate, and Fill & Sign PDF files https://adobe.ly/3Ga3nCI 

 

Would you mind sharing a small video recording of the steps you are taking and the issue as it occurs for more clarity and understanding?

Is this an issue with a particular PDF ile or with all the PDFs? Please try with a diffrent PDF file and check.
I have checked the PDF file that you have shared and found that it's created using a non-Adobe application, please try to create the PDF/s using Adobe Acrobat Pro (Paid subscription) and see if that works for you.

Sorry i Mean Adobe Acrobat DC pro,

 

we can't change the PDF source because are generated by our ERP

as soon we open that pdf and Click "Edit" and we are starting to Add Text or Images and moves parts of contents, after few minutes becomes Extremely Slow, when writing a text will appear after 5-6 seconds, move components like an image throug the files become impossibile because it freeze in a page
