I've been using various standard profiles with Acrobat XI and I cant duplicate the problem. I also see no issues with the PDF that should cause any problems. Can you post your profile?

As you point out, Acrobat 9 is old. It's also no longer supported by Adobe. Upgrade to a current/modern/supported version. You may also want to try removing any/all 3rd party plugins you have installed to see if the problem goes away.

I just checked and you are correct. I had forgotten that we did this a long time ago (Acrobat 6, I think) in order to improve security on files. Users were extremely unhappy to learn that the pages they had deleted/replaced were still there when they did a save (due to the incremental updates...

First thing you need to understand is that PDF has a feature called "incremental updates", where only new and modified objects are written to the end of the file. This is what happens when you do File->Save in Acrobat. When you do a File->Save As or you've done some operation that turns a Save...

Conversion of fonts from one format into another is illegal and violation of the font license. And given that both Mac and Windows support the same font formats - TTF & OTF - it's completely unnecessary.

And when you do a Save As Optimized, that is one of the many lossless operations that we perform. However, for a standard Save As, we do NOT do that image optimization phase for a variety of reasons, including the fact that it can take a while on large images. I believe that Photoshop...

PDF files can contain all sorts of metadata - both at the document level as well as the individual object level. However, there is no standard place for the filename in that metadata, since it's just the name of the file. Of course, if the tool that produced the PDF wrote the filename into the...

However, even using Save as Optimized PDF doesn't control everything. There are still a myriad of other optimizations that take place during Save As (or Save as Optimized) for which there aren't controls. Yes! I am not talking about Save as Optimized. I am talking about regular Save As...

That is correct. Because you did a Save As, which means you've told us that we can perform any form of LOSSLESS optimizations on the file when we create the new COPY of the file. If you only want the changes you made applied, do a Save. Nothing to do fix. It's by design. And has been this...

Apology accepted - and not to worry, I've got a pretty thick skin after manning forums for decades :).

There is lots of response from Adobe. We have recognized that Apple threw us under the bus with this change in 10.8 and we remain committed to finding a way around it to restore proper color management in Acrobat. Unfortunately, the problem is not a simple one - especially due to the many ways...

I just want to thank everyone for the discussion. As someone who doesn't have ink under their fingernails - the only way I learn about the needs of those that do is to talk. Online, in person, etc. I can certainly understand the use cases for wanting this "flipping the plates" and maybe...

We have alpha and beta testers for our products, who certainly provide us with feedback. However, at the same time, forums such as this and and elsewhere also factor into our product specs and designs. Some of the print-oriented features in Acrobat XI came directly from this forum!

There are checks for all of that. And they can be combined into a single profile that can be run. So you need only check a single check and look at a single report. How much easier do you want it?!? Of course there is! Been in Acrobat since version 9. You can check for "same color but...

But the few palettes in Acrobat aren't designed to be kept open all the time. They are things you open, use, and then close.

Brent, we are NOT talking about the Creative Cloud here. We are talking about Adobe Acrobat Professional which is sold primarily as a separate product, but also to be included in the CC.

If that's all - why not just use Preflight's built-in check for "Text is Rich Black"? That will not only show you _IF_ you have the problem but WHERE you have it. It can even be run in batch.

We already do that, and have for years. The few remaining secondary windows, such as Output Preview, Preflight, etc. all remember where you last left them and re-open them in that same place - including across multiple monitors. Within the same major version of the application, but not across...

That sounds like an old bug. Are you sure you are current with the 11.0.4 update for Acrobat XI?

If we did that, then it would not be possible to navigate the elements via the keyboard - which is extremely important to users that are using assistive technology or other non-mouse-based means for navigation. It's a bit smaller (I think about 50 pixels, IIRC) in Acrobat XI. What would you...
