"Fill & Sign" text disappears as soon as leaving the text box when writing in Hebrew

New Here ,
Jul 14, 2019 Jul 14, 2019

Dear forum members and support,

While using the "Fill & Sign" feature, whenever writing a word in a foreign language (Hebrew in my case), the text disappears as soon as I exit the textbox.

This does not happen when using only English letters or numbers.

When trying to Undo the "invisible" added text, the app crashes.

This reproduces to me on 2 Android phones, a Oneplus X and a Moto G5.

Did anyone else encounter this? Is there a known workaround?

Thanks,

Alon

Hi @Nachshon362646383nif,

 

Thanks for writing in!

 

We understand the situation and the team is already working on it. 

The task is a bit too complicated that we anticipated and thus, is taking some more time than expected.

 

We are getting this worked on, and the fix should be live soon.

I identified the follow behaviour of text objects when they contain even a single letter in RTL language (Hebrew or Arabic):

  • Desktop (version 2023.008.20470) :
    • The text object is preseved, but in some cases, the Hebrew/Arabic letters turn to squares, as if the applied font doesn't support the character set.
    • RTL peragraph direction is no longer supported.
  • Web (version 3.22.29-93b8a4d51):
    • The text object disappears after you exit the document (text objects with Roman charset or digits are preserved).
    • RTL peragraph direction is not supported.
  • Mobile App (Acrobat version 24.01.02 (20240131.1538360) for iPhone):
    • The text object disappears after you tap out of it to exit or create a new one (text objects with Roman charset or digits are preserved).
      If you click in the place where it was, it will show up for editing with the text it contained. This means tht the problem is with rendering the content of the object to the PDF.
    • RTL peragraph direction is still supported.

 

As I still have the the old Fill & Sign app installed, I checked and verified that the text tool functioned perfectly from Hebrew and Arabic.

Thank you, but this doesn't solve the problem. If I'm paying for Adobe premium, I want to be able to use it as intended, and see the text I'm inputting.

So what is the answer??

@Adi Ravid Thanks for sharing the observations.

 

@ElloKel The fix is already a work in progress. We will be live with the fix by the end of this quarter.

Well, two quarters has ended, but the issue preserves. Still the same problem in version 24.5.1.33730. what's the ETA on this? I'm a paying customer and expect some level of quality here.

Hi,

Was this fixed eventually? I'm using the latest version of acrobat reader on Samsung S23 ultra and the bug still exists.

Hi
The problem I’m experiencing is that your application does not support
Hebrew documents signing. Which make it irrelevant for me, since I work in
Hebrew and sign files in Hebrew. Due to this, I would like to request a
refund, since you cannot provide me the service you’re app was claimed for.

Thank you
