I spent bloody ages sorting my pdfs and arranging all of their contents through the bookmark feature; was pretty proud of myself and then decided to "star" my two pdf docs I spent the most time catergorising. ya know? Because they were quite precious and I wanted to seperate them from all my uncatergorised docs.

...

Does Adobe think their bloody funny or somethin'? Is my entire afternoon just a bloody joke to 'em? Cos it bloody feels like it.

Now I'm currently decending into the deepest pits of sadness as all of my hardwork seems to have been erased... as all of my bookmarks have been wiped of the face of the earth.

I'm sad now.

Edit: I tried to get over myself and remade all of my bookmarks. They stayed for a little while and I thought "Woah...is this...really gonna work out..?" No. No it wasn't. As soon as I opened a seperate PDF, the bookmarks on the former were eradicated completely. Is there some kind of save bookmarks function that I'm unaware of? Because I'm stumped and frankly, exhausted of bookmarking now. Better off just throwing everything in the Rubbish if it's going to vanish when I'm not lookin'.

Exact same issue here using Windows 10 Acrobat DC Version 21.011.20039. All worked fine until last 2 days. Bookmarks disappearing...I recreate them, save the documents and upon reopening they are still gone.....Hours of work lost!!

IS any one at adobe going to do anything?

My legal practice relies on te bookmarking function. It is utterly ludicrous that I am paying for a professional product that has wasted hour and hour sof my time by effectively deleting hours and hours of work.

I am having exactly the same problem ... I'm a court room advocate and I've wasted 4 hours of (now unbillable) time setting up bookmarks on an entire hearing documents bundle, only to see them disappear.

Without bookmarks that save, this product is completely useless (and I mean completely useless to me and all my colleagues). Unless I get an answer soon, it's Readdle for me!
