  1. It's been years, and hundreds if not thousands of people have requested you remove the stupid home screen. it's a waste of time for people. how much longer will you keep ignoring this? unless there's some tracking feature that is embedded in it for your convenience. NOBODY wants this screen! NOBODY finds it helpful! EVERYONE finds it annoying and and extra unecessary step that we need to do to close it each time we close a pdf file. it's a WASTE OF TIME. listen to your users!

  2. I would love to be able to customize the pop-up that appears when I select text. At present, it offers editing tools, but I don't use those. I use the markup tools, so in addition to the highlight tool I would love to have the "insert text" and "replace text" (or whatever they're now called) there, plus the call-out box. Possibly one or two other tools I use a lot.

    This would save me a lot of time as I would not have to mouse over to the toolbar, even though I've added the tools I use most often. Especially…

  3. Admin Console's current Auditing system is fairly surface-level, it would be good to have more advanced auditing abilities. I believe every page that can be edited should have some kind of logging implemented and viewable on the
    audit.
    Example: We had some users who were being kicked out every 30 minutes because the default setting on one admin console which we didn't even know they were assigned to, this should have been set to the default "don't log out ever"
    we'd like to be able to see who changed that permission but it is unavailable.
    This is just one example,…

  4. 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…

  5. When a new version of a MacOS is released, Adobe applications are not yet compatible with this new version of MacOS.

    In my case I updated my MacBook with MacOS SONOMA and I have issues to create and print PDFs.

    Generally, Adobe developers are still in the testing phase to make applications compatible. So, it is generally advisable to wait a few weeks before upgrading to a new version of an OS to avoid this type of problem.

    A preventive pop-up alert message should be sent to all Adobe Acrobat users as soon as a new OS is about to…

  6. 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…

  7. It is extremely frustrating that the scroll bars are missing on the September 2023 release of Acrobat DC - they re-appear on a mouse click, but do not respond to Wacom pen. So to scroll through a PDF, the pen has to be put aside. This is slowing down my work considerably, and there has been a lot of frustration expressed in the Adobe Support Community, especially among Wacom users. This is not a behaviour that we can be expected to "get used to" or "love", as it has not been designed with the user in mind.

  8. Provide a central place to change the Settings. For example, when I wanted to change the Opacity of Highlights, I spent good amount of time to find the way to do it. If there is a central place to change setting, it become easy to do it quickly.

  10. When submitting form SSA 445 on ssa.gov (US Social Security) it asked me to verify my e-mail by sending an e-mail with a verification link. I clicked the link and ssa.gov via Adobe Sign sent me a second e-mail instructing me the document was signed and complete and to click on a button to download the final document. However, the button was not clickable. Please work with your ssa.gov account team to instruct them on how to correctly implement Adobe Sign so that submitters get a copy of their final document. Below is a screenshot of the final e-mail message…

  11. There should be a proper full fledged dark mode that needs to be introduced by Adobe on all platforms - Windows, iOS, iPad, Android, Mac and everything.

    We need to have a setting where is specifically says "Dark mode".

    High time Adobe works on this.

  12. As a proofreader, I like to use the read-aloud feature. Acrobat's, however, is now unusable. It crashes on my Mac. I cannot read paragraph by paragraph. If I pause to insert a comment, it restarts reading from the top of the page. If there are columns, pullquotes, figures or tables, sometimes it reads across the width of the page instead of vertically. It's just a mess.

    I used to be able to use my Mac's built in read-aloud feature, which allows me to select text to read out loud. That no longer works in Acrobat, although it does in all…

  13. In Windows version 2023.006, searching a PDF for text doesn't highlight the selected text. The navigation arrows for moving between searched text instances have moved to the lower right side of the window, away from the search box. That's not intuitive at all, and requires moving the mouse or touching a different area away from the user's focus.

  15. I would like to use a keyboard command to post a comment, including adding text, marking text for deletion or adding a stamp.

    Hitting command-save to save the doc works, but I might not always want to do that (also, that's not especially intuitive!). Using the mouse to navigate to the "post" button is inconvenient and time consuming.

  16. Create a tool that makes low resolution documents high resolution so OCR will work. User needs to be able to redact documents, but OCR doesn't work. She has to go in and print to Microsoft pdf and then she is able to OCR and search.

    Please cut out some steps by making this automatic or adding a tool.

  18. Searches on words such as 'differentiation' fail in documents where the double f has been formatted as a ligand (the two ff's joined as one symbol). This has been known for thirty years and yet it still happens, it's ridiculous that such a simple feature of text should be able to disable such an important function and advantage of using PDFs to communicate information.
    And by the way the hoops you made me jump through to log in, even though I was using correct email and password were just ridiculous -- I simply won't waste my time trying to get…

  20. I can't apply a digital signature on my desktop. Adobe forces me to route it electronically and applies a signature that does not have my certificate details such as time date stamp and reason for signing.
