Dropbox StaffHey JADAstudio, thanks for keeping us in the loop on this.
May we reach out via email to have a further look internally at this point?
I am having this SAME PROBLEM and it is incredibly frustrating. I had been using HelloSign for years without any issue, and then DropboxSign the last few months, and about 2 weeks ago, started having this problem. The colors, boxes, lines, logos, etc. all appear, but all the text in my file are gone. It doesn't happen with every file, just the files I'm saving as / printing to PDF from Microsoft Excel to PDF. I open the PDF itself and everything is there, but when I upload to Dropbox Sign, all the text is gone.

Hi kristendo, thanks for reporting about this here!
Could I send you an email, in order for us to have a closer look into this?
Let me know!
Yes you may send an email [email removed as per Community Guidelines] I have figured out 2 ways to make this work - first, it could be the font I'm using that all of a sudden isn't compatible (Proxima Nova) because when I saved the Excel file in Arial font and then print to PDF and uploaded here, it worked without an issue. I also then tried printing to Adobe PDF as opposed to just printing to PDF and that seems to upload here with no issue. Since I have these work-arounds I am okay going forward, but these are new issues that only started ~ 2 weeks ago. Perhaps it's due to an update w/Dropbox Sign or an update from Adobe.

Me pasa exactamente lo mismo, en mi caso exporto de pptx a PDF y es muy frustrante.
