Recently Adobe updated my Acrobat to 10.1.2.45. Now I'm unable to past images from clipboard into a pdf document. For example, using another windows program I might copy an image to the Windows clipboard, open up a pdf document, and click on the Edit menu expecting to be able to select Paste and paste the image from the windows clipboard onto a page in the PDF document. However, Paste is faded out in the Edit menu and is unselectable. I was doing this about 10 times a day and now that feature is unavailable to me. CTL-V also does not work.
Thanks very much for your idea but it wasn’t what I was looking for.
Actually, I stumbled on the solution. The problem is that you cannot paste from the clipboard when you have the thumbnails side panel open. All I needed to do was close that side panel and the pasting worked.
By the way, I don’t see how to post this solution to the discussion for others to see. If you know how to do it, please do.
Hope you are doing well. Sorry for the experience.
I tried different workflows on my end and was not able to reproduce the issue.
Would you mind letting me know the workflow you are trying to achieve so I can better assist you? A screen recording video of the workflow would be great.
Also, please ensure that you are on the latest version (2024.004.202xx) for the best experience.
