1. Tabs duplicate in windows taskbar

   Bug. I work with two monitors, and when I have the Adobe Acrobat window on one monitor, it shows as it should, but when I move the window to the other monitor the icons in the Windows taskbar multiplies, which get very annoying after just a few open dokuments. If I try to close a tab, the "duplicate" window in the taskbar is still there but empty. It has been like this for the last two updates of Acrobat I think. Please fix this error!

2. Remove internal ads from paid version of Acrobat

   Can we please have a debloated home screen in Adobe Acrobat?

   Looking at the current layout, half the screen is wasted on stuff I’ll never use:
   • Curated project ads like “Unlock your sales potential with TED” — this isn’t why I opened Acrobat.
   • AI features pushing “summarize your notes” when all I want is to view and edit PDFs.
   • Meeting transcription integration — how is this even related to a PDF tool?

   And the strangest part: if I’m running Acrobat DC (formerly Acrobat Pro, Acrobat X, etc.), that already means I’m a paying customer. Why is the home screen still trying to upsell me with irrelevant promos?

   All of this clutters the interface and makes the actual purpose of Acrobat harder to reach. A Publisher Mode without ads, promos, or unrelated features would make Acrobat far more usable.

3. bookmarks

   Don't open bookmarks by default!

   When opening a document that has bookmarks embedded in it, the bookmarks panel opens automatically (and slowly) and takes up a third of the screen. It's infuriating, takes several seconds before it can be closed, and is completely pointless. Ditch it, or make it take up a tiny fraction of the screen space. I hate the way Acrobat prioritizes bookmarks over every other aspect of the interface.

4. pop-ups

   Get your fingers out of my business. I pay the full price to use your software. So stop shoving pop-ups for new functions and other services in my face. I'm trying to work here. I'm not here for fun, and I sure as **** am not here for YOU. It's supposed to be the other way around. You're supposed to be the industry leader; act like it or I'll find another provider. They'll still push pop-ups in front of me, but they'll charge half the price for it. You should be ashamed.

7. Windows 11 taskbar uncombined

   Strange behavior on Windows 11 taskbar when uncombined. As you can see in the attached video, the Adobe Acrobat icon is duplicated when shifting the windows to another monitor and stays like that until I close the app and open it again.
   It becomes very annoying when opening many files such as 5 or more. The taskbar will be full of Acrobat.

11. Bookmark Panel

    Please, please allow a feature to DISABLE the bookmarks panel. It is completely useless in most cases but always opens on every new document. I open a lot of new PDFs every day, and EVERY SINGLE ONE pops up with a bookmark panel that is useless and takes up half of the viewing pane, which I then have to close. Truly, it is enough for me to stop using this program and find any other option, even if it has fewer features. This feedback does not seem uncommon when I spent a lot of time searching around for a solution.

    Just put an option in the preferences to disable the bookmarks panel, please.

12. No AI, Add Favorite Tools Option

    The Home menu is terrible, and continues to get more and more cluttered with every update.

    First, why does my "Recommended tools for you" list, default to AI every time I open this app, and I have to click an arrow to the next page with the actual tools. I am so sick of companies shoving "time saving" AI down my throat that actually just ends up wasting my time.

    Second, I would love to be able to set favorite tools, rather than these recommendations. They are truly terrible. What are they basing this suggestions on? I have never even used "Request e-signatures" tool and it's the first one to appear on this list. But it's also right next to this recommended list, in it's own box under "Get documents signed fast". So why is it even an option to appear under the recommendations?

    The fact that it's faster and less frustrating to just to click on the "See all tools" option to find the one I need, means that you are doing a bad job at UI.

13. Acrobat Output Preview panel behavior change: Simulation Profile changed appearance, now values

    If I change the Simulation Preview profile in the Output Preview panel, it used to be that I would see my color simulated as if it printed/displayed in the other environment. Now, however, it's actually changing the color values to keep the same appearance. This is a bad idea. We need a way to turn this off or at least toggle it.

    I'm currently seeing this behavior in the 2024 version. I'm not sure with which version this changed.
    (Architecture: x86_64
    Processor: Intel
    Build: 24.4.20219.0
    AGM: 7.1.8)

    When you open a PDF, the Output Preview panel defaults to your working color profile, either set in the Acrobat preferences or synchronized through Bridge. Unless of course, the PDF/X file had a specified Output Intent, where it will default to that Simulation Profile. The ink values in the Separations are consistent with the exported file.

    I know I'm not imagining things, but it used to be when you changed to a different Simulation Profile, the view of that color breakdown would change, showing how that ink formula would appear in that other printing condition. All the numbers stayed the same, but their chromatic appearance on screen shifted to simulate the other condition. This is what (we assumed) this function was for.

    Now it's behaving differently: now if you switch to a different Simulation Profile, the values of the inks change. The appearance stays the same, but all the ink numbers move. This is consistent with a conversion.

    A similar behavior would be in InDesign, or Photoshop, with the difference between Assigning a color profile, or Converting to that same profile. One changes the appearance of those values, the other changes the values to preserve the appearance.

    This new behavior is causing issues for us.

    If I have a file I know is destined for a Fogra press, but was not output with an Output Intent specified, when I open it on my system, where my default CMYK profile is GRACoL 2013, that's the profile the Output Preview panel will display. When I change the Simulation Profile to Fogra 47, I get different CMYK values in the art. But I need to see the original values — in that other profile.

    This is not how this panel is supposed to work — not how it's labeled, not how it used to work in the past. I am not converting the color — my printer is not converting the color. (Most of them will not accept a color-managed PDF.) They are plating the ink values I've given them. Is that not the purpose of the Simulation Profile, in the Output Preview panel?

    Or someone tell me my memory is wrong, and this is some kind of Mandala effect, and this was always the behavior.

    Is there some application preference or setting to revert to the previous behavior?

    (I do not currently have an installation with an older version — 2021, 22 — to show screen shots of the different behavior.)

    If I change the Simulation Preview profile in the Output Preview panel, it used to be that I would see my color simulated as if it printed/displayed in the other environment. Now, however, it's actually changing the color values to keep the same appearance. This is a bad idea. We need a way to turn this off or at least toggle it.

14. Kompaktmodus für Fensterbreite in Acrobat (mehrere PDFs nebeneinander)

    Problem

    In der aktuellen 64-Bit-Version von Acrobat ist die Mindestbreite des Programmfensters sehr gross. Dadurch kann ich nicht mehr als zwei PDFs nebeneinander sinnvoll anzeigen. Für Arbeitsabläufe mit 3–4 Dokumenten parallel ist das eine klare Einschränkung der Arbeitsfläche.

    Vorschlag (Feature-Request)
    Bitte führt einen «Kompaktmodus» bzw. eine Option zur Reduktion der Mindestbreite ein. Idealerweise als Voreinstellung (z. B. «Fensterbreite kompakt») oder via Umschalter, der die linken/rechten Paneele schlanker macht bzw. komplett ausblendet.

    Nutzen
    • Effizienterer Vergleich mehrerer Dokumente.
    • Bessere Nutzung von grossen/Ultra-Wide-Displays.
    • Schont Workflows, die bis anhin mit 3–4 PDFs nebeneinander gearbeitet haben.

    Workarounds ausprobiert
    Seitenleisten einklappen, mehrere Fenster statt Tabs, Zoom-Einstellungen, neue/alte Ansicht → keiner erlaubt eine wirklich schmale Fensterbreite.

    Umgebung
    Windows 11, Acrobat 64-Bit (neue UI). Bitte optional auch für Reader.

    ---

    Problem

    In the current 64-bit version of Acrobat, the minimum window width is very large. This makes it impossible to place more than two PDFs side by side on one screen. For workflows that require 3–4 documents in parallel, this is a significant limitation.

    Feature request
    Please add a “Compact mode” or an option to reduce the minimum window width. Ideally as a preference (e.g., “Compact window width”) or a toggle that slims or fully hides the left/right panels.

    Value
    • Faster comparison across multiple documents.
    • Better use of wide/ultra-wide monitors.
    • Restores productivity for users who used to work with 3–4 PDFs side by side.

    Tried workarounds
    Collapsing sidebars, multiple windows instead of tabs, zoom options, new/old view → none allows a truly narrow window.

    Environment
    Windows 11, Acrobat 64-bit (new UI). Please consider Reader as well.

15. Recent File Listing not in date order

    When I go to look at the Recent Files list, there are multiple issues.
    Firstly, see attached image, the files are not listed in order based on the last opened date.
    Secondly, in Thumbnail view there is a checkbox titled 'Sorted by Opened'. When this box is checked, instead of sorting the files are all selected.
    Thirdly, in List View selecting one or more files shows a checkbox, but it it not checked.
    I consider all the above items to be bugs with the Recent Files User Interface.
    Note 1: Using the Open Recent File menu, the recent files are listed in order, most recent first.
    Note 2: The current version of Acrobat Reader is:
    Continuous Release | Version 2025.00 1,20756 | 64-bit

18. invoices

    I would like to request that Adobe adds an option to automatically send monthly invoices directly to my email. Currently, I need to log in and download them manually, which is time-consuming.
    This feature would be extremely helpful for accounting and record-keeping purposes.

    Thank you for considering this request.

20. remove bookmarks

    I use Adobe to open up to hundreds of pdf files every day and the bookmarks menu keeps popping up every time i have closed the viewer window.
    I have gone in to Preferences -> Documents and turned on "Restore last view settings when reopening documents" but it doesent work.
    This is very annoying because i never use bookmarks.
