we use self host nextcloud with libresign on openssl. the certificate include crl path pass on curl and also use freetsa. all openssl and freetsa pem/crt import to reader trust store and also no error find on certificate detail. whatever we test only LTV is show not enable and all other status work fine. I have question does reader/freetsa support self host openssl or is that force to use DSS?
I am constantly being bombarded with annoying Adobe Autocrat update pops and Adobe product promo popups several times each day. How do I stop them?
Hi there. Normally when someone send me a PDF, I can open it via iphone/ipad and use the fill&sign and drag my signature to sign it and the form is saved. Recently the pdf file sent to me are password protected and i can import to acrobat and enter password and sign but it doesn't get saved. Is there a work around for this. There is no problem when doing it on desktop but I don't want to leave my adobe signed in on desktop with my signature and I prefer on iphone/ipad as it's faster and I am always on the move. Please advise. Thanks!Swadeep
The linked pdf file was created in latex, and displays correctly (with the dark blue blackboard background) in Acrobat. However, the background disappears in Reader.https://www.motionmountain.net/Quantum_2025.pdf AI does not help.How can one solve the situation?
I recently updated from version 26.001.21677 to version 26.001.21771. Previously I was able to print documents with mixed size papers without issue (mixed 8.5x11 and 8.5x14). Now using version 26.001.21771 I am no longer able to print these documents. I get an error message saying can not print the document, please visit the help page. I have tried this using multiple different printers and still get the same error, please advise.
I realize it may seem somewhat unusual to post a question and then answer it myself. However, after more than three decades developing interactive PDF forms and applications, I thought this might be a useful topic to share with Adobe Reader users who may not realize how much functionality can be built into a PDF while still allowing the completed application to operate in the free Adobe Reader.The answer is yes — and considerably more than many Adobe Reader users may realize!Interactive PDF forms can be designed to perform many application-like functions while still operating in the free Adobe Reader. Depending upon how the PDF is developed, JavaScript can be used behind the scenes to perform calculations, validate information, automate repetitive tasks, manage form data, populate fields, search and retrieve stored information, and provide other interactive functions.From the user's standpoint, none of this requires an understanding of Acrobat JavaScript or PDF form development. The pr
Update 21208 of Acrobat Reader breaks the app, it won’t start on Windows 7.It shows “This program couldn’t launch because the object api-ms-win-core-winrt-l1-1-0.dll is missing” or something along those lines....Please fix. Acrobat Reader 32-bit, Win 7 SP1 64-bit
I have some digital downloads that are google pdfs. Is it possible to convert them to Adobe PDFs? All I see is the option to convert them to other formats. I need to do this in order to print them.

How can I: 1-Compress multiple files in a directory, or 2-Compress an entire directory, or even 3-Compress an entire thumb drive full of pdf files?The question is clear enough
I am trying to setup digital signature on Macbook Air with M3 chip. It is not beeing detected automatically during "Configure a Digital ID for signing" -> "Use a signature Creation Device". I understand that workaround is to Attach Module in Preferences -> Signatures -> PKCS#11 Modules and Tokens. The button Attach Module is not active. Is there any way to solve this? Macos 15.3.1, AcrobatReader Build: 24.5.20414.0.
I have a PDF located on a dropbox server accessible to about 4-5 people. 3 people were on the document leaving comments as a way to proof. When one of them went to save, the entire document got corrupted. The file was NOT a read only file. This issue only happened with one person, the other two were able to save it fine. Was this an issue because it was 3 people on one large file? or is there something else going on?(i know very little about tech stuff. feel free to explain things to me like i’m 4.)
Sometime in the past couple months the Fill & Sign text color changed to white...which makes it useless for filling in forms on white background. I've searched the community and everything says the color of the Fill & Sign font cannot be changed.I had to uninstall version 2019.021.20061 and reinstall an older version (.20058) to be able to use Fill & Sign again.Anybody else? Since I didn't find any Community topics where someone else mentioned it, maybe it was just a quirk of my PC/system or a bad install. Certainly it could not have been intended...Thanks
Hi,I have tried using the assistant but it wasn’t very helpful in this instance.We have multiple RDS hosts and user will report that Adobe has crashed.It produces an error "Something went wrong - A running instance of Acrobat has caused an error". I have created a DMP file I would like to submit to support but I am unable to find how to do this.Is someone able to point me in the right direction? Or I can provide a link to the DMP file if someone on here is able to review it.TIA.Rob
Well, this question has been on for a long time but everyone seems to ignore it, so I'll just give it another shot.I get this error when trying to copy something.Most of the time, if i ignore the error I can still find it in the clipboard.Sometimes I'm lucky and it doesn't happen (using the same document), so this clears that it has no copyright protection.Yesterday I worked all day on a document with no problems, but today I'm losing a lot of time dealing with the problem and trying to fix it. (hope this clears that I have all software up to date and no plugins missing)The thing is that I often work on asian character texts and ignoring the error does no good because all I have left in the clipboard is junk data (an example of copied text: ‘¾—zŒõ”“dƒVƒXƒeƒ€‚ÌLCA)If I try to copy again, sometimes it works (I have to try from 3 up to more than 15 times though), but I will get the error when I try copying the next word.I really doubt there's an instant solution for this, so all I'm aski
This has been bugging me for ages and I haven't ever found a fix.Why is it that when I open an existing PDF, edit that PDF, and then click save, it ALWAYS asks me where to save it? I just want to override the previous file. 99.999999% of all products I use where I open an existing document, then click save, it automatically saves it to the same location I previously had the document saved to, and it doesn't require me to go in and select where I want to save it.It makes no sense to me and drives me insane that when I make one small adjustment, I can't just click save and be done with it.
Hello everyone,, It's considered the premiere pdf software, but it has trouble just opening files, let alone more than one. Scrolling leads to system hangs. The program crashes periodically even when you're not really doing much that stresses it [Spam link removed by moderator.] Is the issue a simple bit of code that IT pros are familiar with, or is it just buggy for no good reason???
Adobe Acrobat Reader has become exhausting and frustrating to use.What was once a simple PDF reader now feels like a bloated platform full of forced features, popups, banners, side panels, auto-opening windows, and promotional messages. Even when I only want to open and read a PDF, I am constantly interrupted.This is not productivity. This is distraction.There are far too many unnecessary settings and integrations that normal users never asked for. The interface is cluttered, confusing, and overloaded. Basic tasks require dismissing multiple UI elements before you can even focus on the document.The software feels intrusive. It pushes upgrades, cloud services, accounts, AI features, and other extras that have nothing to do with reading a PDF.For users who simply need a fast, quiet PDF reader, this experience is unacceptable.Right now Acrobat Reader feels closer to adware than professional software.Many people do NOT want an ecosystem. We do NOT want forced integrations. We do NOT want b

The adobe upgrade will not install. The message "Upgrade status - installing. Thanks for your patience."Any suggestsions on how to fix?
I want to prevent Adobe from automatically opening PDF files I download from Microsoft Edge. The suggested solution is to use CTRL+K to open Preferences and then uncheck the box titled “Always open PDFs downloaded from the web”. However, the screenshot below shows that this option does not exist for me at all. Please help.
In our enterprise, few users (60+) are facing an issue while launching the shortcut Adobe acrobat reader DC, "Invalid Plugin detected. Adobe Acrobat Reader DC will quit". As mentioned in the Adobe technical forum, downloaded the latest patches from vendor site and installed the same. issue was still persist. later we had used the Adobe utility removal to cleanup the corrupted installation files. Rebooted. Installed the latest version. issue was still persist. Finally just renamed the plugin folder from this location, C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\plug_ins and launched the shortcut. it is working as expected. After successfull launch, changed the folder from plug_ins_rename to plug_ins. launched agian, no issue persist. Could you please help me to understand why the exisitng plugin files (before deletion) were not working. how do we fix this for large number of users. is there any automated fix for wider dep

The “Make current properties default” option is missing from the comment properties pop-up, so I cannot change the colors of my comments, or my commenting name, and have the changes stick. See! No “Make current properties default” at the bottom! This happens regardless of whether I’m using new-look Reader or reverting to the old version. I’m in Windows 11 and using a 32-bit version because apparently that’s all that works with an ARM processor. I remember this happening once before (on my previous laptop), and I don’t remember what fixed it. (Perhaps related: I am not signed in, or at least it does not appear that I’m signed in, because when I do try to sign in, the browser sign-in works fine, but then the app freezes up and a I just get a repeated error ping if I click on anything, and I have to force-quit out. Is the option of saving different defaults somehow linked to account sign-in?Also: I don’t have Creative Cloud installed. I would prefer not to have to install it! But is that
