"Initial View" not showing "Title" by default??

[jazamm]

Hi All,
Converting .PPTX to .PDF using PowerPoint 2016 & Acrobat XI Pro.

For ADA 508 gov't compliance, we need all .PDFs to display Description: Title in the window's titlebar, NOT filename.

We are setting File > Properties > Title in PowerPoint and the PDF is inheriting that just fine (showing as should in Acrobat's File>Properties>Description), but the default Initial View for the window bar is filename. Why?? This seems ridiculous if it breaks gov't compliance, and we cannot manually fix each file, as we have hundreds if not thousands of them.

I'm exporting via "Save as Adobe PDF" from PowerPoint, not "Save As > PDF," nor "Print > PDF" nor "Export > Create Adobe PDF."

Aware that many users need filename to show by default, ADOBE can you please just make this a user pref toggle at the APPLICATION level, thereby removing it from the Accessibility Check?? 508 users can simply set their software to show Title, so the checker can just check to make sure the file has one.

Hi

Acrobat XI is end of life. So there won't be further updates for it.

However, this is being worked upon in Acrobat DC which would be available in future updates.

Thanks

Understood, thanks for this. Do you have a version number you expect it to be with for DC, and any time frame we can roughly estimate its availability to the government? Thanks again : )
