  1. This new floating, unhideable toolbar needs to go! Give me the old tools interface back. It is unfathomable to me that Adobe is just going to push out this interface with no choice for the customer. It might seem like a small change, but this appears to have been done with very little thought for the user.

  2. Really, change it back to the old version and demote the team that thought this was a good idea.

  3. Not being able to view participants in side pane when first opening the program.

    Steps to reproduce and observed result:
    Once the Acrobat Pro is open and I go to the agreements, I wait a moment for them to load. I click on one of the files to view the information pane to see which people are involved in that file to see who completed the form. When I go to click the tab to view the people, the pane closes and I have to click the file in the list again. It will do this a few times. I…

  4. There is an ever-going issue with how to replace a signature that have been used once with another one. The problem has been there for more than a couple of years now, and I truly find it strange that lots of users have approached you about the same but you still did not fix it!

    Whenever you try replacing the existing signature that you have used the last time with a new one by clicking the symbol (x) or (-) that will never workout, unless you repeated this ten and sometimes hundreds of times! It very frustrating and time consuming…

  5. There's no way to add/edit background/watermark without activating the whole "edit pdf" function, which processes the document, taking time and often introducing unexpected changes to the content in order to make it "editable". Previously the background/watermark function did just that. If I'm working with a background/watermark it's probably because I want to leave the original content unchanged. This also leads to longer save times. I can no longer reliably use this feature.

  6. STOP SPAMMING ME! I don't want your product to open for every download. I never asked for it. I figured out how to make it stop for awhile, but now it is back. How do I make it STOP!!!

  7. Whenever I open a new document, this is displayed for 10-15 seconds and then the app opens by itself an old document. Could be from the same day or the day before or even older documents. Without any relation or logic. Just pop- opens a new windows with the old doc. This is crazy. Drives me nuts every time. Cannot be stopped.

  9. Updates are killing work flow. It took me calling in to find out how to undo what the automatic updates changed. I get that change is a part of any program's life, but when your change interrupts the ability to smoothly work within the program, for no other reason than 'change is good', you are failing your customers. If you are going to continue to force change (bad changes at that) on your customers, get ready to loose them to 3rd party programs.

    If change is required, add in a way that we can modify to keep what we need…

  10. The current Acrobat Pro User Interface/UI hides simple features from users and forces them to type a search request to locate them. E.g., I want to "crop" a PDF. Previously this option was a click or two away in some rationally-organized menu. Now I have to type "crop" into a search field and hope I move fast enough to capture the "TOOLS...crop" search suggestion before it disappears and the search bar unhelpfully tells me that "No matches can be found" in the PDF document (combining "Help" suggestions and document word searches in one search bar field is confusing).

    Please put…

  11. What was the perceived problem with the old interface? Did any user testing go into the redesign? I feel sorry for the designers and developers who had to implement this overhaul, and I feel disdain for the leadership that must have driven the change. Middle management should push back harder against initiatives like this.

  12. In new layout there is no place where I can check the name of opened file. On tabs there is place only for short file names. When file name is longer I have to hover over the tab to see its name in tooltip. There should be possibility to show whole file name in other way.

    In old layout whole filename is presented at the title bar.

  13. Search function does not work.

    When pressing ctrl+F, the search option appears but does not find anything. Even when I'm staring right at the word or text I typed in the search box. How can a basic function like this be broken and still get released? This is a complete waste of time and productivity for anyone that relies on this function to search large documents. Please fix this or give us the option to roll back to a version that actually works.

  14. I HATE IT!!! You took away the things I use MULTIPLE TIMES EVERY SINGLE DAY that I had in a quick access toolbar.
    I do NOT need AI, I do NOT need a "summary", I need to convert documents to PDF and make them accessible. I'm back to 37 steps to even start now?????

    EVERYTHING is moved. Why? Because you hate us and don't want people to use your product? If I learn the new locations, how long until you move everything again?

    I cannot describe how much I hate this. I'll encourage my company to look for a PDF…

  16. The AI Assistant is not something I am interested in. The button for it appears even though the feature is disabled and it is very easy to hit it, as it is right next to buttons I use all the time. I would like to make it go away, but that, I'm told by Adobe tech support, is impossible.

    Having a feature that is still in beta and that is of no use to me brought to my attention so often is annoying. (It's the one colorful button in a corner of the screen where the USEFUL buttons are all…

  17. the new version of Adobe Acrobat Pro is horrible. The layout is totally counter productive. buttons and toolbars have been moved to places they should not be. this new design is more than a few steps backwards. it is a lot harder to use than before. really really bad redesign

  20. Dear Acrobat,

    Please listen to customers and stop alienating them. People become dependent on your product through work. Please restore the version you threw out. You are creating unnecessary pain. Why does your company resist real feedback?
