There shouldn't be a problem to automate your PDF documents. But please take care of the accessibility settings from Adobe Reader. If you start your Reader and you try to track an element inside the PDF, you will get a pop-up for "Accessibility tools". This settings should be configured always in the same way, because when you use different settings, Ranorex may have troubles to identify the element by its RxPath next time.
