  1. For large documents it is very helpful to track the NAV Pane to your current cursor position in the document. e.g. when you use Find and click on that position, the NAV Pane should show you where you are in the document.
    Using this in other word processing SW - very productive feature.

  2. UX design used to be to provide the best possible functional interface to allow the end user to be as productive as possible. The latest Adobe Acrobat interface flys in the face of these standards. It has moved menus, hidden functionality behind icons and in the name of looking cool or nice has ruined my productivity.

    I never comment in these forums, but what you have done with the latest interface is so dysfunctional that if you worked for me I would fire the lot of you.

  3. Users should be able to view layers and comments AT THE SAME TIME. The update has layers, comments and such now only in one pane on the right. Users should be able to move those elements around, for instance, to view layers on the left and comments on the right.

  4. it would be beneficial for some users, myself included, to be able to change the colour of the document's pages we are reading from the default white to whatever background colour works best for our vision. For example, when I'm working in MS Word, I'll often change the page colour to various shades of blue as it helps me to see / read the test easier. If this feature could be added to this product, that would reduce the strain on my eyes when reading many documents using this software.

    Sincerely,

    Jim

  6. Almost every time I open Acrobat, whether on restart or wake-up, the locations of interface items changes. Today, "Recent files" is populated with the contents of my starred folder. Which is great because usually my starred folder is inexplicably empty, Today it's recent files that's empty.

    Regularly I'm greeted with "Bytes not Ready" when performing basic commands.

    Then I get some messages that are upside down and backwards! What is that?!

    Signatures weren't available last week but they're back now!

    As many others have suggested about going back to the old interface - Mine does that about every 8th time…

  7. Windows 11 allows to use window snapping layouts to maximize the use of screen, it can be done literraly with any app, but Acrobat does not support window snapping layouts. It is a very useful feature to quickly arrange windows in a way to maximize productivity for example when comparing a PDF versus another PDF or another text in another document

  8. Hi.

    I am experiencing a bug where when I try to draw a line and make it either horizantally or vertically aligned using [Shift] button, it makes the operation unable to end. And when I try to navigate, the line just stretches along with the mouse. I can still navigate to other windows, but when I return to the PDF window I am originally working on, it still is in the same condition and the line operation is still running.

    For now, the work around is that I need to "fake close" (close the file by middle mouse click and…

  10. The Chinese version of the export function has a mapping error in the sub-options. "Export as PDF" corresponds to the sub-option of "Save As Other," while "Save As Other" corresponds to the sub-option of "Export as PDF."

    中文版的匯出功能子選項對應錯誤,「匯出成PDF」對應到「儲存為其他」的子選項,「儲存為其他」對應到「匯出成PDF」的子選項。

  11. Create an extract shortcut, just like copy or rotate with a shift/command+letter(E), so that once we have everything selected we can execute the extraction without pressing anything else. SOMETIMES pressing extract can be misclicked, and causes all the pages to unselect. I use this function every day all day for work and the new UI has caused many cumbersome problems such as this minor button. Adding the "extract" buton to my customized toolbar doesnt always save, so when I open a new Acrobat window it is not there. I have to just right-click on the pages to extract, which can…

  12. Clicking on any links in any PDF causes Adobe Acrobat Reader to hang and crash

    1. Open any PDF document that contains a hyperlink in Adobe Acrobat Reader
    2. Windows 11 (Continuous Release I Version 2023.006.20320 I 64-bit)
    3. I expected to open the link in my default browser in Windows 11
    4. The application hangs (spinning mouse cursor) and becomes unresponsive. After 10 seconds of this, I have to close Adobe Reader and try again. But it does that again. Unable to open any link whatsoever. I just copy the link by highlighting it in the PDF and paste in the browser. Much…

  13. You are referred to the American Society for Indexing Digital Publications Special Interest Group – Embedded Indexing Resources.
    Embedded Indexing Resources – Digital Publications Indexing (digital-publications-indexing.org)
    See the Hyperlinks Report under Compatibility observations.
    The request is for ranges and range names to be accessible from Acrobat readers enabling users to create hyperlinks to named ranges.

  15. When using the "Correct Recognized Text" feature, the UI is cumbersome and requires either hitting Tab repeatedly or constantly switching between the mouse and the keyboard.

    The user should be able to cycle through multiple corrections using only the keyboard:
    1. Press "Correct recognized text"
    2. In the resulting dialog, the text entry cursor should automatically be placed in the "Recognized as" field.
    3. When the user hits Enter/Return, it should be as if the user pressed the "Accept" button on the UI.
    4. The next potential correction should appear, and the cursor should once again be placed in the…

  16. Please move the quick access tool bar that is floating on the left side to the top again. It covers part of the document and that is really bad when one needs several documents open next to each other!

  17. In the Swedish version, the ALT command for creating PDF/A is "colliding" with another command (In Swedish "Reader-utökad PDF").

    To create a PDF/A file you pressed ALT + A + R + A in the previous version. In this new version it's ALT + F + N + A. But since A is "doubled" it doesn't work.

    The other option that now also has A as short command, had U in the previous version. U is available, so please change that back to U.
