I was able to use an app Xodo and it seems to work just fine for me. I will use this for the time being until this bug gets worked out.

Have you managed to solve this problem, we use dropbox and adobe for our work tablets, dropbox have come back to us saying it's not a problem their end but something to do with Adobe, this has been happening for at least a month and we have no idea how to solve the issue, so any ideas would be a big help.

We have other options as cloud services, so I will be looking at the competition if this is not solved.
- Lusil7 years agoDropbox StaffHey again, peeps!I’m jumping in here again to ensure a couple of steps: could you please check if you’re running the latest version of the mobile app and, if necessary, update it? Also, this might be a shot in the dark, but maybe restarting the app by signing out and in again, or even clearing the cache might do the trick?Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the feedback Lusil.
I tryed your suggestions without success.
What worked for me is acessing the Dropbox from within the Adobe software, the problem is that it will download the file even if I set it before do be "offline".
This is a bit annoying, since I can't download several files as 'offline' and access them later.
I may guess that this is related to the file access permission from adobe software with the location of the files download via dropbox.
Soon I will try via the app My Files (or any other Explorer like app), locating the *.pdf file of dropbox manually and trying to open it with Adobe.
