Question

Acrobat DC - how to set 'remember last saved file location'

Several people in our customer service department need to open batches of PDF docs and then save them into the same folder as the first one. The structure will change with each batch. If Acrobat would remember the first saved file location it would eliminate much clicking around.

I could not find any usable answers so far. Is there a solution now? - Thanks!

they're not going to add it because adobe (like valve, like microsoft) is extremely complacent because it has a de facto monopoly on many types of file editor/viewer, one it ironically gained through promoting piracy the way nike promoted theft of its sneakers

Come On! Get this done and get this into the program I spend a sh*%load of $$ on every month. in Word, you can at least set the default file location.

How is this not a feature?  This was avaialbe in Wordperfect 5.1 30 years ago.  Come on Adobe please put this basic functionality in.

Hi Monikarusso,

Apologies for the delay in response, as stated above you want to set "remember the last saved file location" correct?

Acrobat doesn't remember the last saved file location, unfortunately, there isn't much that can be done in this situation.

You may refer to the similar discussions here -

Let us know if you need more information

Regards,

What?! This is a very simple fix. A decent programmer should be able to do it in 15 minutes, top. Why Adobe hasn't implemented this very basic feature a long long time ago is beyond me.
