  1. Could you please re-add in the option to select which toolbars you wish to see on the menu bar area of the program? I am sick of having to click out of my document, look for the right option, and then search for what I want to do. I used to have my regularly used toolbars selected at the top of the screen, so I didn't have to go searching for them. This creates a lot of wasted clicks, time and effort on the part of the user. This is by far the worst version of Acrobat I've ever used,…

  2. As also expressed in a bug report related to the changing of font colors within a PDF file, I would like to see Acrobat Pro XI and DC have the ability to change the font color of all pages - or a specified range of pages - within a given document, in one pass. Right now this process must be laboriously applied, one page at a time.

    This feature would be analogous to the Crop Tool, for instance, which does provide the ability to apply itself to all or to a range of pages within the specified file.

  3. The All Tools, Edit, Convert, Esign menu is disappearing as soon as you click any of the menu items or tabs. Tried updating the computer and adobe, restarting, nothing is solving the issue.

  4. I know competition, software development, and dealing with the public is hard, but I've been waiting for Acrobat's 2025 "give them so many popups that they realize how valuable we are" tactic to go away and it's just not happening. It looks like my windows machine is caught up in a war for which app is going to be opening PDFs, and I'm sad that y'all are going through that, but incessantly pestering of your paying customers just isn't the way. Some days it feels like an early 2000s infected web browser with the 'feature' ai and sharing popups. I…

  6. Running Acrobat Reader, 2025.001.20432. Existing (eMSN) pdf files have no actual content and show only header & footer like content. Those eMSN pdf files display just fine when using Mac's Preview. HW: iMac 27" late 2015 running macOS 12.7.6

  7. I save 90% of my files to the same folder on the same drive on the same computer but yet I am unable to identify and establish as default location for saving all these PDF's. Thus, I am repeatedly going through the same keystrokes to get to the same location sometimes 50 times per day. And never do I save to the folder that I am prompted to save to.

  8. It is impossible now to edit the CC list once the agreement is in draft form. Once we save it as a draft, the CC list is locked. We can only cancel the agreement and redo it.

  9. Please stop auto text recognition when I click on edit PDF by default. This function causes the file to freeze especially if I am working with large documents that contain layouts or drawings. It wastes a huge amount of time to wait until the application restarts again after a long freeze.

  10. The burden you put on the application to deliver terrible AI features kills productivity. Not only do we want to remove the almost useless 'feature' completely, we'd like the application not to grind to a halt during a simple search while the AntiIntelligence wastes energy and time.

  12. Please allow users to hit the escape key to dismiss pop-ups (such as asking to try the new Acrobat experience), rather than forcing use of the mouse. Even better would be not to pop the messages up altogether. Even Microsoft Office products allow the escape key to dismiss its annoying pop-ups.

  14. Updates are killing work flow. It took me calling in to find out how to undo what the automatic updates changed. I get that change is a part of any program's life, but when your change interrupts the ability to smoothly work within the program, for no other reason than 'change is good', you are failing your customers. If you are going to continue to force change (bad changes at that) on your customers, get ready to loose them to 3rd party programs.

    If change is required, add in a way that we can modify to keep what we need…

  15. Disable Generative AI. Aside from the disruptive UX/UI aspect of how Gen AI is being pushed onto users, there is also the fact that a number of your users (myself included) are literally not allowed to use Gen AI in our work. Furthermore, surely Adobe is aware that there are a number of use cases where PDFs very often represent the most sensitive, private and/or confidential documents that people use and work with. Think court documents, legal and contractual agreements, government documents. As a result the last thing users in these contexts want is the sense that Adobe is foisting…

  17. When adding a comment that contains only a space character, the comment cannot be posted. This means that it is impossible to mark up changes that involve inserting a space, or replacing another character with a space in an 'import PDF comments' (https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/indesign/using/import-pdf-comments.html) workflow in InDesign.

    Please allow posting of comments containing only a space character.

  18. Option to turn off automatic optical character recognition (OCR) completely, not for each individual document.

    Every time I would like to edit a document, like insert a text line, the OCR runs and stops me from being able to work on my PDF until it is finished. When I have many pages on a document, it takes a long time and often doesn't recognise the text properly. So I don't want this running automatically. I need an option to turn it off or be able to turn it on for an individual document.

  19. The engineers for New Adobe forgot that people don't just use Adobe to create and manipulate documents -- the other half of the equation is that the documents are also going to be READ. This New Adobe puts the bookmarks on the right side of the page with no option to switch the view to how people actually read which is left to right. SO FRUSTRATING. I won't be able to use New Adobe ever if you leave it this way.

  20. Seriously...in the middle of working I get slapped with a "new" look on my PDFs! ALL my customized toolbars are gone! No more controls at the top...they are magically and permanently moved to the right side...optional tools on the left.... nothing is where I WANT IT!!! JUST...WHY?!?!?!?!?! Why fix something that wasn't broken? Why not leave it up to the user to have more control of the interface? Why be like Microsoft? By the way, the "disable new acrobat" is useless and only wants me to restart the program only to have some pop up bar show up at the…
