  1. There are tools on the floating toolbar that I don't use. Let me get rid of them. While you're at it, let me move tools I've added myself ABOVE the default tools. Why are they locked in place? Come on.

  2. Finally open tabs in Acrobat can be saved for next launch. But there is one little annoying thing when Acrobat is closed and you open a pdf by double-clicking on it from Explorer/Finder... The file opens (you start reading it) and after with a small delay the previously saved tabs open and GET FOCUS. So can this behaviour be optimised that the FOCUS stays on the most recently opened document?

  3. Added to the many annoying notifications/ tips / contextual pop-ups/ advertising messages that Adobe has recently built in to Acrobat are notifications about "New Tools", whether in the quick access tool panel, on the application home page, or when viewing my online account/ profile at acrobat.adobe.com.

    It appears to be some kind of "tour" of new features that is commonly used in other products, but (1) most of the places this notification appears will NOT trigger a tour when you click on it (it just opens the 'All Tools' menu), and (2) there is NO way to opt-out of it.

  4. While going through the process of requesting a digital signature through Acrobat, it would be VERY HELPFUL to have a "back" button to move backward through the 3-step process in order to make edits/corrections (particularly to the copy in the email). There have been numerous times that I have composed the email (in the Request Signature process in Acrobat) and wanted to go back and change something. It could be editing the copy in the email (subject or body) or adding/deleting recipients. Currently, there is no way to do that without canceling the process and starting all over.

    Then, you…

  5. I am amazed at how hard it is to flatten a document when you’re trying to accomplish something so simple. It is amazing and impressive that Adobe has made it so complex, confusing, and impossible to use. It is so bad that when I call Adobe for help, the tech support just advises me to open up the document in Google Chrome and save it as a PDF. For such an expensive product, that is ridiculous!!!

  6. wouldn't it make more sense to see the REAL page size in the left bottom corner (or when you hit command-D)?
    When I check my PDF, I want to see - in a quick way - if I got the page size right. Rather then if I got the bleed and slug right... Now I have to go to Print production, etc. etc. It would be so much easier to see the size (Trimbox size) straight away, because that is what is most important, right?

  7. Please restore functionality that existed in Acrobat X:
    1. Drag & Drop files with Legacy Actions and with Acrobat DC actions
    2. Do not displaying each file processed by actions for faster processing
    3. Be able to edit actions created in prior versions of Acrobat
    4. New actions should have an option to prompt user to add more files before running
    Please watch the following video for a complete description and comparison of the functionality to Acrobat X:

  9. There is a small white box to the bottom right of the cursor when I have the selection tool active and pointing at anything other than text. Please remove this as it serves no purpose and is a distraction.

  10. I use the OneDrive app on macOS to sync files from a Sharepoint library. Most of the files are not actually downloaded yet - when you open them from Finder they download and then open. This applies to opening files from the File>Open dialog box in most applications as well (i.e. Illustrator).

    However, Acrobat doesn't do this. If I choose a non-downloaded file it just closes the dialog box and never opens the file. I have to go through Finder and open it there instead.

  11. Новата версия, която се самоинсталира, има следните недостатъци:

    1. All tools падащото меню винаги се появява отворено и трябва ръчно да бъде затворено, за да освободи заеманото от него пространство.

    2. В предишната версия можеше да се настрой всеки документ да се отваря в самостоятелен прозорец (а не като нов Tab) - тази опция просто е премахната

    Всичко това е досадно.

  12. Hundreds of thousands of businesses use flowcharting software (such as draw.io, Visio, LucidChart, etc.) that allows you to create HORIZONTAL flowcharts, project management swim lanes, and more.

    Unfortunately, Acrobat currently only allows VERTICAL "Single Page Continuous" scrolling in the Page Layout options.

    For multipage horizontal documents, it's hard to track the right side of the previous page with the left side of the current page.

    I'm proposing an additional Page Layout option called "Single Page Continuous Horizontal" (and maybe rename the current option to "Single Page Continuous Vertical) that allows us to scroll HORIZONTALLY through ALL pages in a document.

  13. Maybe this is just a problem with my computer running Windows 10, but, for some unknown reason, the active Adobe Acrobat window border changes to Windows 7 style on occasion and is usually followed shortly thereafter by the program crashing. Is anyone else experiencing this peculiar behavior?

  15. I am submitting this as a BUG REPORT because vertical mouse scrolling in Acrobat is seriously broken! Even with continuous mouse scroll turned on, you can't even use the mouse wheel to scroll because it's so slow. You have to resort to the year 1997 when you had to click and drag the scroll bar, because it's the only way to scroll through your document at speed. Can you please fix vertical mouse scrolling to match the speed of web browsers and Microsoft Word? Thank you!

  16. "Other file storage" locations (e.g., SharePoint) in Acrobat are listed in the order they were added (oldest first). Please add the ability to order them, by name, by date added, and manual/custom order.

  17. The option to download a PDF to my desktop is buried and frustrating to find.
    When logged online in to my account and looking at my documents tab, each file has three little dots to the far right. These dots have many of the document options I would expect, except there is download feature. To access this feature, I need to open the document and then select the three little dots located near the top of the screen to the right.

    I could not find this and had to look online using your help feature. I found others having the…

  18. Add to the preferences an option to turn off all tool-tips and tricks pop-pops. it's gotten so bad that I've canceled my personal subscription to adobe but still have to suffer through it for work. Also, fire your marketing team for ever coming up with this stupid idea.

  20. I have a 29 k PDF file that has overprinting objects. With my preferences set:
    Page Display > Use Overprint Preview: Always
    the file opens not showing the overprint, and 7 seconds later, the overprint renders correctly. It seems that this render should be a highest priority, rather than opening with one view, then changing, it should wait until the render is complete before showing me a false view.
