Wow - glad you have a good outcome... but man, what a path to get there! Dave

Dave__M · ‎Aug 22, 2023

Visit your Preferences, click on General on the left, and see how you have these settings. See if altering anything here gives you what you need, My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Jun 04, 2023

Good luck!

Dave__M · ‎Jun 03, 2023

I'd like to get some clarity on your request, please. Your forms are in Word format, correct? You then print to Microsoft Print to PDF, and you don't get different results from different forms? If you could describe the details, or maybe even include a screenshot or tow, it might help troubleshoot. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Jun 03, 2023

If I am understanding your issue correctly, I would export the PDFs to images (jpg, tif, etc.) and assemble them using a program, like Photoshop, which will allow you to align the individual piece to your liking. I would then produce a PDF from your composite image. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 23, 2023

I am using Windows, and Acrobat 2023.001.20174 | 64 bit. I don't see that option on my Preferences>Documents. Does yours have different options? Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 23, 2023

I had a similar issue w/ Photoshop & HP... an export command shortcut (ctrl/alt/shift S) would also bring up an HP system dialog box each time - very annoying. Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 17, 2023

Will your version of Acrobat allow you to 'tear' the tab of additionally opened PDFs away from the window to stand alone as a second one? Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 17, 2023

Wow - that's surprising to see (or not see) the settings! Does anyone else have this version to check the prefs? My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 13, 2023

Are you using this tool (see below)? The one just to its left won't make a fillable field - but the one highlighted should. Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 10, 2023

I've never been able to reproduce this strange event! But I don't run any Steam games. Does Steam provide a PDF launch after exiting for anyone else? Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 08, 2023

Instead of the Edit PDF tools, use the Prepare Form toolset. You'll find all the field types you need - especially the Text field that I believe you need. Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 08, 2023

I do that exact thing many times per week. It's the only way I'd ever be happy with the formatting of web content on paper! Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 05, 2023

Can you describe the workflow and tools you used to add your new content? Did you make your edits from the "Prepare Form" set of tools? Can you share a screenshot of your work/file? It cold be helpful for troubleshooting. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 05, 2023

Did you create this PDF? If so, what workflow/steps did you use? What was the original source document? A website? A Word doc? The more you can tell us, the better shot at troubleshooting. Non-embedded, unavailable font is the likely issue, but the more details you can provide, the better shot we have at helping. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎May 02, 2023

I've run across this as well. A pasted stamp annotation lands in unexpected places often for me. Paste-in-place would be super helpful to me. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Apr 24, 2023

It may save some time if you have a blank page (same size page) in a separate PDF file, open up the pages panel (thumbnails) next to your big doc that needs the blanks, and drag the blank thumbnail into the big doc's pages panel where desired. A control-click drag can also be used to duplicate that blank page inside the big document. It's a manual process but can be pretty quick once you get the hang of it. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Apr 24, 2023

To set your application's language, go to Preferences, find the Language listing on the left, and choose your desired settings. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Apr 19, 2023

It looks to me as if you are seeing the Comments list on the right of your screen. Every comment, regardless of the type, will be represented by an entry in this list. You can hide the list by clicking the little right triangle along the panel's edge if you'd prefer not to see them. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Apr 11, 2023

Glad it was useful info! Dave

Dave__M · ‎Apr 05, 2023

Are you certain that the page number is part of the PDF footer? Perhaps it is in the source document, and that's why it is not being removed by the header/footer updating. A screenshot might be helpful in troubleshooting. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Apr 04, 2023

Glad it proved helpful! My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Mar 31, 2023

Glad to have helped!!! My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Mar 27, 2023

Can you confirm that you are in text edit mode vs. merely highlighting existing text? Be sure to use the Edit PDF toolset from the right. Thanks, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Mar 27, 2023

Got it. I'm sure there are others with a similar situation that may be able to shed some light on it. Good luck! Dave

Dave__M · ‎Mar 27, 2023

I wonder if the fact that you've indicated you have Acrobat XI is your issue. That is not the current version, and might be incompatible with the more modern Office 365 version. It dates back to 2012, I believe. I have Acrobat Pro DC, Windows 11, and Office 365... and the issue doesn't appear on my system. Maybe someone else can reproduce your issue with similar software, and offer a solution. My best, Dave

Dave__M · ‎Mar 19, 2023

Thanks for posting the screenshot. Does this occur with every PDF you open in Acrobat, or does just one particular file behave like this? Dave

Dave__M · ‎Mar 17, 2023

I'd be curious to know if this issue is also present if you use the PDF Maker (Acrobat ribbon) in Excel instead of printing to PDF. You can apply some preferences that may help control the output. Dave

Dave__M · ‎Mar 17, 2023

Vikas, Can you give us as many details as you can about your situation? What is your operating system? Is there a chance that you are opening Reader instead of Acrobat Pro? They look very similar at first glance. If your default PDF handler is NOT Acrobat Pro, it can open your PFDs in a different app. Dave

Dave__M · ‎Mar 17, 2023

What is your operating system and version? It can help try to reproduce the issue, and hopefully come up with a solution. Dave
