You are the only one who can decide what is best for you, of course, but since you asked I will tell you that I have been working with Acrobat since version 2, and over the past years I have heard many from many frustrated users of Standard who discover there is a feature they want and don't have. I have never, ever heard from a user of Pro that they were frustrated because there was a feature they had and did not use. Just my two cents as a trainer, consultant, and long-time user! ...

You can clearly see in your screen shot the window has been moved the the left—outside the view of the monitor. When I move my application window to the proper place, my Toolbar returns. My status bar now has the Show in Bēhance icon. My Control panel has the reference point widget again. (In your case, since you had the Type tool selected, you were missing the Character/Paragraph controls.) The solution is to move your application window to the right. ... View more

In Acrobat DC Pro, there is an awesome Fill and Sign Feature. It makes it easy to sign your own name and drag & drop other data if desired. Then click "Get Others to Sign". If you need to add a Sig field(s), click Prepare Form and do so. Then click Ready to Send. Enter your recipient(s) and click Send It sends a link to a web browser so they can sign it with a tablet or phone. It sends PDFs to each party involved. Adobe Magic at its best!

Max Wyss, That is my screen shot to show Judy where to find the Application and Producer information. It is just a sample and does not reflect her problem documents! After seeing the image, she was able to find out that all documents created one way were a problem, and all documents created another way were not. When I Exported the sample InDesign document, I did not select Interactive, by the way. I just opened the first InDesign file in my recent list. Also note that the time in the screenshot is minutes before the time in my post. I am mentioning this only because someone might read your comments and get confused. Hope this helps! ... View more

Just for an FYI, you will be compatible with your peers as long as you save your PDF in Acrobat X or earlier. You don't have to use Acrobat X yourself! Yay! So treat yourself to a newer version such as XI or DC. When you look in File > Properties, you will see the Producer—I have Acrobat DC, which is 15—and the Version. Note that anyone with Acrobat 8 or later can open this file. ... View more

You are about to click okay to create a new layer with a layer mask. Your original layer will remain intact, but hidden, so you can leave it alone. It does not matter if it is a Background layer because you have chosen to create a new layer when you click OK. The problem that I see is that you should have the lipstick selected when you start—not the inverse. The layer mask will hide the part that is not selected. Look at the View setting at the top. The letter "F" will cycle between the views or you can click the dropdown. One of the settings is Selection, but they all work. Pick what you like, or preview all of them. Adjust the settings Select how you want to output. You have chosen to put the image on a new layer with a layer mask to hide the parts that are not selected. There's more to this dialog box, but you won't need it for your image. ... View more

Which version of Acrobat? And where are you pasting it to? From which application was it produced? In File > Properties, you will see the creation and modified dates as well as the application. This may or may not help you find out if it was altered. When text is deleted and retyped in an application, it is impossible to know what the original text was. WordPerfect used to store the changes, but I don't know of any other software that does. Acrobat does not. If you go to Edit PDF > Edit in Acrobat DC, you can see the font used. This is from Acrobat DC. If it was scanned and OCRd, you may or may not have trouble with the copy and paste. Newer versions of Acrobat do it better, and there are choices to make when doing OCR that affect the outcome. ... View more
