1. Problem viewing PDF files on read only USB drives.

   Bug Report:

   I am distributing pdf files on USB drives that are locked for read only at the hardware level. Until about 6 months ago, I was able to do this with PDF files. Now, when I try to open a pdf file on a locked drive, I get an error that the file is corrupted. I can unlock the drive and then the file can be viewed without issue in Reader or Acrobat. I see this bug using two different manufacturers USB drives. It also reproduces using pdf/a files rather than standard pdf files. Marking the pdf file as read only doesn't help either. And as I mentioned, earlier versions of reader (up to about 6 months ago) work fine under these same conditions.

   If you need any more information or hardware samples to test, please contact me!

2. bourneology@gmail.com

   Hello,

   I tried checking the forums to see if my idea was presented yet. I did not find it and have scrolled a lot of pages.

   So... my feedback is regarding the Adobe Create PDF Group Add-in in MS Office on the Ribbon. The Adobe Group Add-in keeps coming back when I remove it. I have been very thorough in my attempts of removing it, to the point of deleting the registry keys for it several times. I mean like, I kill it hard but it keeps coming back.

   Please do not make coding that bypasses the settings we put in. We know what we want or do not want and having features arbitrarily put in place feels violating. If a user removes a feature they do not like, leave it that way, and don't take it personally. It's not that we do not know the feature exists, it's that we do not like it, nor want it in our ribbons.

   Reading a lot of the comments, people are mad. I understand. There is no "one way" of pleasing the populations of earth. Diversity is key. As such, software designers need to stop with trying to make a uniform, one-off environment hoping their way changes the world and dominates. Interoperability, dynamic content, and customization by the user are what will sell. Forcing features into our programs after being removed motivate users to look for alternatives.

   For the most part, I like Adobe. I have been with Adobe since the early '90s. That is until this recent change of the UI. I find it hard to use and going the way of Microsoft. I implore you, please return to the game changing, alternative, stand by itself, user pleasing company you once were. Adobe made very well written programs once. That part is slipping. I give Adobe 28GB on my hard drive for all the apps I run. For that price of digital real estate, and a premium monthly fee, I want more than slumming it with Microsoft tactics. I want the premium experience back please.

   Historically, Adobe rocked because they stood alone. The programs were solid, responsive, and feature rich. At one point I wished Adobe would make an OS because I thought they would do a fine job of it. Not anymore. Adobe is becoming a hack ridden doppelganger of all the other crapapps. Break free Adobe! Be who you were meant to be.

   At the least, get your addin out of my MS Word and Excel.

   Thank you.

3. quick action toolbar covers edge of document

   The new quick action tool bar floats over the document covering contents. the panning of the document is also limited to the edge of the "paper" so these contents cannot be seen without zooming far in or far out.

   This could be overcome if the display allowed for a buffer space around the page so the view could be drug past the edge of the paper. This way the document could be drug out from under the quick action toolbar.

4. New UI is unintuitive and difficult to use

   1. It is extremely hard to find things. Just as an example, I struggled with as simple a task as printing. It is not at all obvious to find the print button. No other application I use makes this as difficult as your new UI.
   2. This may either be another example of point 1, or the function is missing. Where is the button to display info about the application? The "About Acrobat" button? I can't find it.
   3. The application wastes massive amounts of my screen space. Stick to the purpose of the application and just display the document. I don't need file management, that's already provided by the OS, and in a much better way.

   Acrobat used to be a slick program, and I enjoyed using it to view documents. Now it is a bloated nightmare, and I dread having to use it.

5. Bring Back the File Icon/Object to the Top App Window bar (drag& Drop)!

   The new interface is nice, but I really use the drag and drop a lot as I do Graphic Design and Design production where I have multiple projects in different folders and drives. I send out approval PDFs and it saves time and hassle to drop what I see in Acrobat into my eMail and Slack chats (and sometimes copy to another folder). I hope you can put that back in some way with the new interface. Luckily tech support showed me how to revert to the old interface. :)

6. New Acrobat Interface is awful

   PLEASE....please.....don't ever disable or fail to support the "Disable New Acrobat" in View. The new interface is awful and there is no real support for it. Took me a half-hour to figure out "find and replace" and still didn't get it to work well. Stamps are in a bad place.

   All ok as long as this isn't forced on us until a LARGE volume of help and online answers to questions builds up...like in 2026.

7. can't resize window

   Since the recent update, I find I need to hold the window in position for a few seconds in order for it to stay where I put it. This is also the case when resizing a window. Unless I hold it in the new size for a few seconds, it just snaps back to the old size. THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN BEFORE. PLEASE FIX.

8. save as

   When I want to save as, a new dialog window opens with a list of recent locations I've saved to. But if I want to save elsewhere, I have to click "choose a different folder" to open yet another dialog window where I can navigate to the location of my choosing. Can we have all this happen in the same window?

9. opening files in new tab

   There used to be button under Preferences->General where if you selected it, anytime you opened a new PDF file, it would open in a new window rather than in a new tab. There's still a space in the Preferences menu where it could go, almost like it was omitted unintentionally. Could we have that back pretty please? I need to view multiple PDFs simultaneously.

10. Movement of Adobe window on Mac

    The space at the top above the tabs has been removed such that it is very difficult to move the window around on a Mac now. You have to go back to the window, then try to find a small space on one of the sides to drag the Adobe window - only one of the small areas at the top by the tabs will let you drag it, and you risk accidentally closing the window.

11. tabs

    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?

13. Add a back button to edit signature request emails

    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 should be able to review the signature request email before sending it.

    Thanx!

14. What the devil did you do to Acrobat?! You've butchered the standard menu and replaced it with some childish set of random buttons instead.

    Since the last update, I can't find the most useful tools because there's no longer a normal, standard "file, edit, ..." menu across the top... and I don't know if it's possible to get it back in a "Classic" form... if so, it shouldn't be hard to realize or see how to do it. You've made this an usable piece of ****. I'm spending more time looking for the tools I've used intuitively before, and getting my temper under control, than doing real work. GIVE ME BACK A STANDARD FORM MENU ON THE TOP, WITHOUT SEARCHING AND HUNTING FOR SUCH AN OPTION.
    I also don't need Acrobat deciding for me the size of the document or the workspace. That was something I could easily reset with the mouse by holding/ dragging the viewport edges, but now it snaps back to whatever it was. This happens even if I use dynamic zoom to increase size of document... now I can only see a tiny portion of the whole doc, instead of controlling the viewport myself. Whose presumptuous idea was THIS!!?

16. show the TrimBox instead of Cropbox in the left page corner

    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?

17. Acrobat Pro Needs a Performance Update

    Why is my PC (RTX 3080/Ryzen 5800X) able to run Photoshop, Illustrator, and Indesign simultaneously without a hiccup. But the minute I open Acrobat Pro (64-bit) it begins to stutter and lag. For example, I close everything on my PC, open a PDF file, try to resize the window, and I have to wait 2-3 seconds for the window resize animation to occur. This animation is fluid for all my other Adobe applications, so why does it only happen with Acrobat Pro? Please, please, PLEASE give Acrobat Pro a stability/performance update.
