  1. In previous versions of Mac Reader, the blue info banner "This file claims compliance with the PDF/A standard and has been opened read-only to prevent modification" could be dismissed without side-effects by clicking on the circled-i symbol. In the otherwise much improved 2023.008 version, this useful capability has unfortunately been lost. That banner is an irritating waste of valuable screen space (for people like me who spend long hours doing research in PDF/A files) and should either go away automatically after a few seconds, or be dismissible as it was before.

  2. There is a bug where the white background in any PDF file is shown as light blue in MacOS Sanoma 14.2.1. I have attached two screenshots for your reference, one from the default Preview app and the other from Adobe Acrobat Pro. The application is updated to its latest version, the details of which can be seen in the following:

    Architecture: arm64
    Processor: Apple M2 Pro
    Build: 23.8.20423.0
    AGM: 7.1.3
    CoolType: 9.0.2
    JP2K: 4.0.1.53159

  3. They used to be near each other at the top, now some are on the right side and some on the top. (?!?) How about a Settings option so users can position them where they're convenient?

  4. I extensively use Acrobat for academic research. The fact that when I search for an expression it highlights all its occurrences throughout the file is interesting.
    It would be even more interesting if I could highlight several searches at once, and colour them differently.
    Those searches would be available on a side panel allowing me to select the colour for each expression, delete them, add new, etc... more important, the searches should be persistent and stored with the file when I close it.
    It would also be interesting if searches, upon flagging them as such, would operate cross file.

  5. With your recent SW, you not only filled both sides with your revenue addons, but you also put the "+create" button with all of the tabs.

    I tolerate your tool sidebars, but your "+create" button is IN THE WAY OF DAILY WORK!!!

    I am constantly miss-clicking it and having to deal with that tool getting in my face all the time. You make it worse by being hyper-sensitive to the mouse pointer moving across it and then opening a larger context window. It is IN MY FACE ALL THE TIME.

    Congratulations for making this a regularly irritating experience.

  6. There's a reason corporations are moving wholesale to Bluebeam and ditching Adobe Acrobat. It's an awful pile of steaming poo in comparison. Bluebeam has infinitely more usability and utility. In Adobe, it takes a ridiculous amount of unintuitive clicks to get anything done, marking up or drawing anything with shapes is a clustercluck, just managing the organization of a document is a nightmare.

    Do your research with users! this is your worst program.

  7. The new Adobe is disaster. It is hopeless to use. It is not stable, all the times i need to close it by task menager. All the tools is not simple to find. Even to make comments to document You need to spend fiew minutes to find option. All the many was moved to reverse side, to right, when earlier was on left. All tools is hidden and hard to fine anything. All the times the program blokking changes, and ask for confirm at documents is safety.
    Wake up, You lost the clients, the concurrance is far away from You…

  9. Reopen closed PDFs (pop-up)
    Acrobat closed abruptly. You can restore the PDFs you had open.

    It closed abruptly because I clicked the (X) in the top right of the application to close the app., while it was apparently doing some other function and not paying attention to the GUI.
    There seems to be too much extra communication and file parsing happening, when I only want to OPEN the PDF.
    How can I remove this "feature", so that the application responds to me, rather than attempting to determine what I want ?

  10. Make Adobe Acrobat remember how far you/what page has been scrolled down to, as it is annoying having to remember or scroll all the way back down to the page I was on before I closed it.

  11. The new update is just horrible. Mutch less userfriendly then the previous version. Would gladly go back to the old one. Please do a serious update to the new verison.
    The signing is almost impossible. Sometimes it workes and other times is does not. The 100 choices for the signing makes it confusing and hopless to use.
    The application hangs/freezes all the time.

    I would not recommend it to anyone after this update.

  12. Acrobat is so buggy and should be rewriten. The cache always fills up when doing CTRL F in a document and stops working. It constantly crashes when viewing multiple 200 mb documents at once or long books.

  13. I think having cut and paste icons in a toolbar is necessary. I don't want to use keyboard shortcuts all the time because of the wear and tear to my keboard over time. Also, how does one have a bates numbering shortcut in the toolbar and not cut and paste? How is that more frequently used by more people than cut and paste? How many users do not need a cut and paste button?

  14. It took me no less than 2.5 hours to edit a PDF, prepare the form and request signatures. It felt like I was using dial up internet and have never seen the spinning wheel of death that much since 1998. I am not sure what is happening with the programming but y'all need to speed this up because I do NOT have the time to waste just waiting for the program to respond to mouse clicks or keyboard clacks.

  15. Hey team,

    I've been considering a potential enhancement for Adobe Acrobat Reader that could significantly improve user experience, especially for those focused on reading without distractions. Here's a suggestion for implementing a simplified E-Reader Mode:

    Feature Proposal: Simplified E-Reader Mode Toggle
    Objective:
    Provide users with a quick and accessible way to switch to a distraction-free reading interface within Adobe Acrobat Reader.

    Proposal:
    Introduce a dedicated button or toggle switch prominently placed in the interface, enabling users to swiftly transition to a simplified E-Reader Mode.

    Key Features:

    Toggle Switch: Implement a visible and easily accessible toggle switch/button in the toolbar or…

  16. The concept of jamming application controls in the title bar is useless and has reduced the grabbable title area on my 1080p screen to a few pixels. Your hamburger menu is also less than usable on a full sized monitor, give us back a functional interface please.

  18. Adobe is clearly run by children. No adult would ever approve the pointless changes that Adobe consistently forces on us. Now instead of toolbars that help us we have annoying floating toolbars that can not be docked. WTF? Sure just randomly switch where the table of contents and tools are, no one uses them anyway because that are terrible tools. I wish i never learned any Adobe programs so i would not be fooled into trying to learn these useless new configurations. I want my money back and all the money i wasted learning a program with no evolution or…

  19. otřesný vzhled, zobrazeno vše co nepotřebuji a vždy znovu a znovu a nevidím dokument - na co Všechny nástroje a další lišty? Proč jsou toolbary okoloc elého dokumentu? člověk musí prohledat všechny kouty než něco najde! Co trocha minimalismu při pouhém prohlížení? Nebo jak nastavit režim čtení jako default zobrazení?

  20. The latest version of Acrobat is horrible. Why did you have to completely flip the entire interface so it is backward. The tools are not readily accessible as they were before. This is a terrible idea. Please offer an option to change the interface back to the tool we know and can use quickly and efficiently. I'm trying to get work done!
