Comments are duplicated after uploading a PDF to Share for Review

Periodically I experience an issue where I add several comments to a PDF, share that annotated file with others using the "Share" button, then a day later notice that all or some of my comments have been duplicated. See below from an incident that happened today:

In today's incident, when I opened the file, one version of each comment used my photo and my name in title case, and one version of each comment used a red and blue cartoon avatar and my name lowercase all one word. I deleted all the cartoon avatar comments. Then restarted Acrobat. When I opened the application again, a third of the deleted comments were still there, but this time it showed my photo instead of the cartoon avatar. I deleted all the comments by the lowercase, one-word version of my name. Then closed the file and opened it again. This time, the same comments had returned again, but showed a gray icon for my avatar. 

 

WHAT IS GOING ON?!?!?! This same issue happened on two different files that I shared yesterday.

Hi Rohit,

Thank you for checking in about this issue. I responded to your private message with links to documents where this issue happened. Below are my answers for questions 1-3):

 

  1.  Adobe Acrobat Pro: Continuous Release | Version 2024.003.20121
  2.  This is just happeneing with a couple of files. However, my clients are reporting that they have left comments that duplicate themselves within the same comment box. By that, I mean that after they post a comment, the text they enter appears twice in the same comment box: They'll write one sentence, and that sentence will appear twice.
  3.  This issue used to happen sporadically, but hasn't happened in several months until it did last week.

 

Thanks for looking into this issue.
