  1. Please change the update back to allow Save As to be functional upon PDF pop up instead of having to access the file in Windows File Explorer to save and rename. What a disjointed process.

  2. After using Find (Ctrl+F), I should be able to dismiss the "No matches found" dialog by pressing the Escape key. Not the Enter key. All other apps use Escape for this.

  3. I like to have my Comments Toolbar always ON - instead of it disappearing everytime I press escape.

  4. I work in the legal industry and we often have large collections of documents where some contain OCR while others require OCR. It would be great if we could easily identify the documents that require OCR to speed up the batch processing of large collections. Additionally, with the availability of LLMs and image recognition, it would be great if you could utilize these to vastly improve the quality of the OCR output.

  5. When combining multiple single-page PDFs into one large PDF, Acrobat steals window focus every few seconds. Acrobat is repeatedly seizing window focus and popping back on top of the other windows.

    I would like to continue work while Acrobat works, but I can't. Instead, acrobat grabs the mouse and keyboard back every few seconds. This renders my computer completely unusable while Acrobat is running.

    To replicate this bug:

    1. Select 50 PDF files.
    2. Right-click and choose "Combine in Acrobat"
    3. Inside Acrobat, click "Combine".
    4. Return to work.

    While you are trying to work, Acrobat will continue to steal focus and push it's…

  6. 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.

  7. I really don't like the new Acrobat Reader user interface.
    The Reader is a simple program, so why complicate things by moving menus around etc (and then not allowing them to be moved back)
    The traditional interface has remained largely unchanged for 25+ years, so why change it now?
    If Adobe really think Acrobat needs a new interface, then please keep the old one handy. I've already changed mine back to the orginal.

  8. We are a law firm and often have thousands of bookmarks in one PDF. As we try to operate in a paperless environment, we insert documents (records) in between others and create bookmarks either by date (numbers) or with characters and then need to re-sort the many that we added so that they are in the correct order. Instead of having to buy a third-party program, it would be nice if Adobe did it. Thank you.

  9. This product, which costs a lot in price, keeps freezing up on me, is very slow, and does not properly work. For all the money you take from people for this software subscription, it has only gotten worse in terms of product quality over the years. I do not work with software this terrible. I will be looking for alternatives because not only does this product not deliver what it's supposed to, it actually undermines productivity. Like, right now, instead of working like I am supposed to, I am spending my time explaining to a billion-dollar company why its product…

  11. We would like to request Adobe Sign product development consider enhancing the editing capabilities of both the “Request e-signatures” workflow as well as the “Publish/Create a web form” workflow. These flows both use a similar/identical initial screen which identifies the recipients or participants in the flow as well as “counter signers” and “CC” participants.

    It would be ideal if almost any field on this initial screen could be modified later after it had been initially entered. We find that very often after we have moved on to the “preview & add signature fields” screen(s) we discover something that needs to…

  12. The website is not accepting my vote on another idea (although I am logged in), so I'm adding more ideas.
    Multiple issues:
    1. The new icon-based styles for editing or commenting are completely nonintuitive; other than printing/saving/zooming/scrolling from the other toolbars, I don't know what any of the buttons mean.
    2. Please move some buttons from editing to commenting or vice versa, or combine their toolbars, or rename their bars. It is ridiculously hard to figure out how to add a rectangular shape in the new Acrobat Pro. It was easy in my last version of Acrobat Pro
    3. Please…

  13. My company purchased an Acrobat Sign Enterprise package in March 2022. Since then we have applied AS to an integral business document. The document did not require setting up a Workflow but has worked successfully with Adobe Sign. As an administrator for our AS account, I can say with confidence that the main feature that attributed to the successful application of AS to this document is the option to “modify an agreement” before signed by the first signor.

    We are now exploring Adobe Sign Workflow to apply to several other business documents and create a more user-friendly platform for obtaining…

  15. The highlighter tool is horrible. Sometimes it recognizes text, sometimes it doesn't. I personally want to be able to freehand highlight whenever I want, and be able to switch to text highlight if i decide to. Instead, it just chooses for me and there is no way to fix it. In the google chrome extension it works, theres an option, but on the actual desktop app there is no option. That is insane and ridiculous.

  17. When designing a workflow, I have the option to create a recipient group. I have created a recipient group that is required and not editable since the workflow users are blind to the process of the workflow.
    When the user is filling out the list of recipients, they are required to enter a name for the recipient group. Why is this required if they are not entering any of the email contact information? Please fix this in the process. It currently doesn't make sense for our users.

  18. The customer service for one-time license purchase is pathetic, once I go on the chat option, the AI has no clue, and the agents keep passing me on to other agents. No one has an idea what to do. Customer support is equal to some 3rd rate homegrown company.

  19. Why am I unable to paste pages into a document once that document has reached 100 pages? I expect Adobe Acrobat to be more powerful than that limitation. Certainly other people using Adobe Acrobat have documents to compile that go beyond 100 pages long.

  20. Its currently not possible to select a default measurement unit. The default is Imperial (inches / Feet).

    As a paid subscription, it should be possible to select a default measurement unit/ type, considering only 3 countries in the world recognise imperial as their official unit of measurement it seems crazy that A/ the default is imperial, and B) that it cannot be changes to Metric.
