  1. Switching between open documents doesn't work if clicked on the vey top of the file tabs.
    I.e. when you on the middle of the tab, it gets active and you switch to the document. But if you at the very top of the tab (top edge of the window), nothing happens. Tabs should cover all the top part of the window, till the edge of the screen.
    In other words, remove the gap between the top of the tab and top edge of the window.

  2. 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!

  3. 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…

  4. 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…

  5. Tag names are case sensitive, sometimes we tend to enter incorrect tag names or may not pay attention to use proper case. While using an automated tool such as PAC, it flags the error however, it is cumbersome to go through the entire tag structure to find that incorrect tag.

    This feature to Find tags by tag name can really help!

  6. Often I like to click or double click on the program header to both move the window and expand ("Maximize") the screen view. When navigating to the upper bar (particularly when I have a list of PDF's open the exposed blank header is reduced) I hover over "+ CREATE" first and this opens up an options window before I can double click the header. This cause me to generate new PDF's without maximizing the window. Please move this "+ CREATE" button to another location or increase/delay the timing on the options window that is generated.

  7. I've tried running OCR scans for English text multiple times on my document but it never works despite my document's text being very clear. I'm running version 2023.006.20320. It is quite disappointing that Acrobat can't even recognise the text when it's so clear. It's not like this scan was a poor quality scan even!

  9. All I need to do when reading a pdf is turn it from the two page 'standard' to a single page scrolling. This gets the file to the right size so that I can read it.
    This used to be on the top bar, View, and select the option. I can't find where you have hidden it, and neither the help nor the search tools brings it up as an option. Why have you made it so hard to do a basic operation that should be standard?

  10. When working with a document in different devices (in my case Android and windows PC devices), the default color palettes for commenting are different. They should be similar to ensure the colors are the same across any device.

  11. Due to the excessive security when attempting to sign to any app or service involving PDF files I no longer use Adobe as my trusted application or service because of the friction and steps it takes to use PDF files - even signing on to this feedback service I had to use a Google login - this has driven me away from all Adobe product and I am a yearly subscriber -

  13. Mechanical estimating services involve calculating and providing cost estimates for mechanical projects. These services help determine the expected expenses for tasks like installing heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) systems, plumbing, or other mechanical components in construction or renovation projects. Accurate mechanical estimates are crucial for budgeting and planning, ensuring that projects stay on track and within budget. https://www.smaestimating.com/our-trades/mep-estimating-services/mechanical-estimating-services

  14. When splitting pages with the new update, I have to reselect my options to use the bookmark names as the file names and split by bookmarks multiple times before it will actually perform the feature. It always defaults back to Split by Number of Pages, and after reconfirming my selection will split it with the file name Add Label and Number after Original Name Option. It takes a couple tries to even get the document to split, and a couple more to get it to correctly split with the requested name - this was never an issue before the update…

  16. It would be great to be able to batch edit comments in the Comments pane. For example, to use the Search function and find all comments with something like a common spelling error or incorrect text, then use a Find and Replace function across all the found comments to replace the text with new text.

  17. I am not able to remove a highlighted text in the new version.Please solve my issue.I tried multiple times using the standard procedure of

    "single-click on the area of highlighted text you wish to remove.
    A small toolbox will appear with two options, allowing you to change the color of your highlight or delete the highlight altogether.
    To remove your highlight, click the trash can icon."

    I tried this multiple times-but not working.

  18. In the new version, there is an empty pane on the left side that I cannot collapse. This makes it difficult when editing and trying to reference another document in the same screen. Overall, I don't really care for the new version. Please make it less awkward, Adobe.

  20. I created this PDF from blank page in Acrobat and now I am unable to edit the images in this file. It can't be selected using bounding box. I believe this is a bug.
