This is a general feedback on using Acrobat CC with Mac
We process many, many pdf documents each day, using Applescript Objective C code app to print each pdf to 100% accuracy.
A major holdup is that in our time-sensitive process, opening the Print, Page Set window takes about 6 whole seconds to be recognised. The Page Setup window pops open very quickly, the script just takes forever to 'see' it.
Can this be fixed on future releases, please?
