  1. It would be great if you could create a PDF with a hierarchal navigation. For example, if the page thumbnails could switch to a hierarchal view so you could build sitemaps or app navigation maps using screenshots of a website or app.

  2. I scan files on my phone and then download them to pc, usually as a batch, when I am selecting said files if I click outside the tiny box all of the previous files that I have individually clicked get unchecked and I have to start over before I can download files. changing that would be awesome, what would be even better is if I had the option to make a folder on my pc where the files could automatically be downloaded when I upload them from my phone. the whole binder download process works but it is somewhat clumsy.

  3. The UI in Acrobat is not very user friendly, in fact I would go so far as to say it's distinctly unfriendly and not condusive to getting work done. I have spent a lot of time modifying the UI, pinning mark-up tools to my ribbon etc. to make it remotely productive to use however when I see some of my less tech savvy workmates using Adobe, they dont have the tools available to them, they dont know how to change mark-up properties (i.e. CTRL+E to bring up the properties panel) and in general the software is restricting their ability to…

  4. I want to know which font is being used when I highlight the text in question. A simple right click after the text is highlighted could present a context menu that would do the trick.

  5. We have a Team account with about 30 users.

    Please give more control to these account like you do with the Enterprise. All I can do right now, is create, delete, add apps and rename. Id like to be able to authenticate users and reset passwords ect. Just like the Enterprise users have

  6. The tab bar, menu bar, and that giant arrow down the right hand side take up way too much space. This is especially the case for those who must zoom in due to poor vision. It is very restrictive.
    The document tab bar is twice the height that it needs to be for the height of its text.

  7. A well designed nice looking dark reading mode for the windows version like ios and android. the ios and android modes have a nice simple dark mode switch much like many apps and operating systems of today now have. I find it's clunky and outdated to still have the only option for changing PDF document viewing options to a night mode-ish for reading at night only in the accessibility options.. a simple switch for on off would be VERY overdue on this relatively expensive product. I find it rather odd that it still does not despite the mobile options already…

  8. It would be great if only the words Click Here was the clickable part at the lower right, instead of the entire rectangular area. Invariably when I resize my window from that corner it launches whatever is the current content down there. Not huge but kind of annoying when you're busy.

  11. Adobe Acrobat DC keeps turning off the shadows of my explorer windows. Changing the theme in Acrobat doesn't help.

    Workaround if you encounter this problem:

    1. Windows key + r
    2. Run: sysdm.cpl
    3. Advanced
    4. on Performance -> Settings
    5. Under Visual Effects tab -> Show shadows under windows -> Apply

    Probably repeat after restarting Acrobat

  12. SEARCH: Pale blue/grey highlight is very difficult to find in documents with similar colours. Please add shade colour selection.

  13. The menu bar and all drop downs automatically highlight when I run my mouse over them - I can find no place to stop this or change any setting.
    I can't read the text!

  14. When you search a document, the found instances are highlighted in a grey blue colour that is very hard to notice. This defeats the purpose of a search function. Either the colour should be changed to something brighter or the user should be able to change the colour in settings.

  16. It's very annoying to have the page with Home and Tools, and recent documents, open every time a PDF is opened. Please give us an option to stop that from happening.

  17. I'll add a tool, in this case Action Wizard, to the tool bar and Acrobat only seems to "remember" my new tool bar for a a few days and then sets everything back to its original state.

  18. During download: The pre-checked boxes prompting installing McAfee or other software is a very shady process. Most people aren't paying attention to that and accidentally install it on top of any other anti virus that they have and that can cause so many issues. Please consider removing the pre-check and allow those that pay attention to decide for themselves.

  19. The popup that comes up for the user is in a most annoying position. The main reason is that it covers text that the user is in the process of reading.

    There is often better grey space to put this in. It might even be better to have this at the top if you must insist on it being present. This is because people read top to bottom and often hover over the text to read and it is less likely to occur at the top of a page because the user is not likely keeping their place.

    And why…

  20. There should be a keyboard shortcut for the "Fit one full page to window" button. I use this button every time I open a PDF (usually because the document settings are set to one-page continuous, my application settings are already set to one page).
