  1. In the most recent update, the footer area where the page size is displayed when the 'always show page size' option is ticked in prefs is hidden.

    if the option is unticked then on hover the page size appears, but the more useful permanent view has been broken.

  2. There should be a proper full fledged dark mode that needs to be introduced by Adobe on all platforms - Windows, iOS, iPad, Android, Mac and everything.

    We need to have a setting where is specifically says "Dark mode".

    High time Adobe works on this.

  3. I want to suggest a couple of tweaks to the new Acrobat UI design that I want to see incorporated soon. First, I would like to see the placements of the tool and sidebars reversed; as an English language user, I feel it is more intuitive to make the most frequently used options on the sidebar near the beginning of the document, on the left side of the screen. Secondly, I would love to see the bug altering my preferences for documents every time I close the app and launch it again removed. It is very frustrating in light of…

  4. Was there a reason for putting everything along all three sides and making it difficult to find the "settings" option? At least when everything was along the top and tools on one side, it was easy to use and I could find everything I needed quickly. This new format is frustrating.

  5. Two features essential to me are either gone or hidden so that I can't find them in the new version. They are important for me in my work as a translator.

    1. In the previous version, there was a "windows" tab at the top that enabled me to open a second copy of the same file and then drag it so that the two copies appeared as separate tabs in a single Acrobat window. This enabled me to jump back and forth between two pages in the same file, for example between the text page I'm working on and the relevant…

  6. Don't force your mass changes on the user/ person paying you. If I had pirated this I'd be safe and kept my settings.

  7. In the new layout, the quick button section is customizable, but you cannot move your added values to the top of the list. So, what good is it?? You should make it so that "I The User" can have the items in the order I want them, thereby allowing me to have the "Most" used items at the top of the list!

  8. Like in the old adobe, then allow for the panes to show the full document name. This makes it easier to navigate. Or at least make it a hover optioin.

  9. I'm encountering an issue with the document's orientation on different devices. When I saved the document as a PDF and opened it on my laptop, it displayed the correct orientation. However, when I open it on my monitor, the orientation of the lines appears different. Can anyone explain why this might be happening?"

  10. I used to have a permanent license to an earlier version that worked flawlessly. My employer forced me into this 2 year license version and it has been a vastly inferior experience. This version is slow to launch, slow to open documents, frequently freezes. This is very likely the last license I will purchase. I am left with the impression that Adobe wanted to prioritize revenue and deliver an inferior product. I used to be a promoter of Acrobat- no more.

  11. the latest Adobe update rolled out a new UI look for the viewing screen. The Quick Tool box in the upper left corner lays over the search box and it makes it difficult to see what is being typed into the search field

  12. Adobe Acrobat is extremely lagging only when zooming in or out, and the file is not even large or anything. It really makes it very painful and difficult to use, please fix asap!

  13. When I try to connect to my Adobe account, after I am authenticated in the browser and go back to the application, I no longer can interact with anything (I get a beep sound as if the window was blocked by something or disabled though it's visual style doesn't change).
    Even after I close it, there are processes left running in the Task Manager which I have to terminate forcefully in order to open Adobe Reader again.

    This happens with the latest version 2023.006.20360 on Windows

  14. There is no option to choose the Admin Console for feature requests. My request is for the Admin Console, not for Acrobat specifically.

    Looking for reports as mentioned in this article: https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/enterprise/using/assignment-reports.html

    Since we are VIP licenses, apparently this is not available to us. From a chat with support:
     
    "License assignment data only supports named user licenses for Creative Cloud and Document Cloud products purchased under the Enterprise Term License Agreement (ETLA).

    It does not apply to Value Incentive Plan (VIP), Digital Experience, and Teams memberships."

  15. It is so freaking hard to give feedback to y'all. I'm trying the 7 day trial but nothing is syncing up to allow me to download it and I genuinely want to cancel and never return to this product again. I had to get through several hoops to even attempt to explain this issue. I'm sure your UX team wants to do better, please fund them or allow them to actually collect user feedback more easily. Also the line height in this text area is way too tight.

  16. The new user interface does not allow for page navigation using the page numbers, and does not allow for bookmarks and comments to be open at the same time. It really is NOT user friendly for efficiently.

  17. The new version of Acrobat moves tools to the left and navigation tools to the right without giving an option for users to customize the location. Having page navigation on the right is unergonomic because the natural reading order is left to right, and people click bookmark titles and page numbers before reading the page content. In books, the table of contents comes before the main content of the book, and you flip rightwards after choosing a chapter to read.

    With navigation on the left, the tools would be on the right-hand side in the new version. This makes intuitive…

  19. I use Acrobat on both Windows PC and Mac (latest Windows 11 and Macos14 sonoma). I downloaded Acrobat from Creative Cloud and kept it updated all the time. A few months ago i found the Acrobat UI was changed on my Mac and when i finally got used to the new UI, recently it just changed back to the old version again by itself and i no longer saw the UI switch button. It's really annoying. And one interesting thing is, the Acrobat UI on my Windows PC never changed even though i used the same account in Creative Cloud. …
