Question

Title bar is different than title of my PDF.

No matter how many times I "save as", I still have this showing up in my title bar: "BOISE CASCADE - Adobe Acrobat Standard DC". The title I have the PDF saved as is "Kamyr Dig Headers". Where on earth do I go to fix this? Can't find anything on this in the help pages / searches. Making me crazy.

In the "Initial View" of the document properties you can specify what will displayed.

In Adobe Acrobat DC Pro you can go to File > Properties and edit the title there. Doing this will change the what shows in the title bar in Adobe.

Thank you so much. Outstanding.

... and changing the title in the Title field before you hit save DOES NOT make a difference either!

Okay, saving as from the PDF with the wrong title bar name, after changing the name in the Title Field didn't help, BUT going back to my original Word doc and saving that as a PDF while changing the name in the Title Field before hitting save DID fix it. Whew.
