Larger files (5MB+) freeze when signing/adding text

Adober Acrobat Reader, version 23.003.20215

Hello. I'm having issues with loading and signing documents (mostly diagrams) which are over 5MB.
It takes about 7-10 minutes to load up the file and an addition couple of minutes of waiting before a stamp or signatures appears on the cursor. Adding text also takes a minute or so before a letter appears in the text box. Sometimes the application completely freezes and eventually crashes.
I've tried changing the settings as recommended by the support staff in other posts, such as disabling "Use page cache", "Enable Protected mode at start up", but it did not help.
Also tried following some guides on the internet to boost the readers performance (mostly visual related settings) although not much has helped.
Is there any other solution to this issue? Other PDF readers do not have this issue when opening larger files, but I really prefer Adobe, as I'm considering upgrading to the Pro version.

Hi Amal,

By any chance have you received some sort of news from the developers about this issue?

Thanks.


Hi @Ro30980298tblx 

 

Our engineering team is unable to use the link for the dmp file as it got expired. Could you share the logs again?

Hi can you confirm the specs of you computer and the exact version of your operating system and software.

Can you also indicate if the file is saved locally, on a network, online, external device...
