I'm incredibly frustrated with Acrobat DC. I remember Acrobat 7 being so much better.
1.) "Reduce File Size" used to be WAY better.
2.) Resizing pages (ex. to Letter size) is practically impossible. I've tried using Pre-Flight; I'm semi-techie, but that's way too deep in the weeds for me. I used to resize using "Print to PDF". At low compression, the loss in image quality was totally acceptable.
3.) I think cropping used to be better? I'd like to be able to crop a constrained aspect ratio (ex. Letter size).
4.) I remember text recognition OCR being way better also.
Text recognition on Acrobat DC is useless. Canon's IRIS on my HP is so much better. I'm actually printing the file, then scanning it, to use my HP's IRIS - since Acrobat's OCR is so worthless.
I love Creative Cloud except for how awful Acrobat DC is. (Maybe Acrobat for Mac has always been bad? I used Acrobat 7 on Windows XP.)
