1. Show scroll location at all times

   It is insane to me that the location on the scroll bar in your current document hides when you are not hovering the mouse over the scroll bar. This is actively unhelpful. I need to be able to see where I am in the document at a glance and should not have to hover over the scroll bar to get this information. Bring back this BASIC feature.

2. scroll bar for comments sidebar

   Please restore the scroll bar for the comments sidebar in Acrobat. The scroll bar is now hidden by default, but it's jumpy and hard to access. I now have to use the arrow keys on my keyboard to move up and down within the panel. It's become much harder to use in the redesigned interface.

3. Pageless Format

   More people are keeping their files digital and don't intend to print. It's preferable that we simply share links to a webpage or cloud document that is meant to be scrolled through.. but many professionals still insist on emailing file attachments because they are comfortable creating Word Docs or Google Docs, but have no idea how to create a webpage.
   PDFs continue to be the file format of choice for portable documents. Some document editing apps, such as Google Docs, have evolved to allow pageless document view - functioning like an endless scrolling web page or an eBook. Exporting a long document to PDF can be jarring when suddenly important content is interrupted by an awkward page break. It's time for Adobe Acrobat to evolve to allow files to be exported as pageless files, like a continuous scrolling eBook. The most efficient way to navigate this kind of pageless document is with "chapters" indicated by headers (H1, H2 etc). This would also encourage more people to learn the correct heading hierarchy. An emphasized scroll bar should indicate how far along you are in the document. Ideally, the reader should be able to increase font sizes, bookmark sections and add comments. To reduce confusion with PDFs designed for print, you can apply a file extension.PDFx or .PDFd
   If Acrobat supported this, it would encourage the most popular document editors to favour designing for screen reading.

4. Create a way to opt out of "new tools" notifications/ tips / contextual pop-ups

   Added to the many annoying notifications/ tips / contextual pop-ups/ advertising messages that Adobe has recently built in to Acrobat are notifications about "New Tools", whether in the quick access tool panel, on the application home page, or when viewing my online account/ profile at acrobat.adobe.com.

   It appears to be some kind of "tour" of new features that is commonly used in other products, but (1) most of the places this notification appears will NOT trigger a tour when you click on it (it just opens the 'All Tools' menu), and (2) there is NO way to opt-out of it.

   In other products, these notifications will shut off after the user has scrolled through the list of new items ONCE or has opted out of taking the tour. Adobe provides no such functioning option. (There are places on the profile/ account page where you can either click "skip tour" but that does not stop the notifications appearing elsewhere or can "opt out" of new product notifications with no actual impact on the influx of notifications ... which, now that I think of it, doesn't sound very GDPR-compliant, either!)

   It is time that Adobe provides an actual, functioning (and data-privacy-compliant!) way to opt out.

5. Make comments pane only show text comments

   I want to be able to see my sticky notes comments at a glance without having "highlighted text" comments clogging the pane. But I still need to have the highlights appear in the document itself. Filtering in the comments pane makes those disappear. Can we get the option to make the filter apply only to the pane? I'm sick of scrolling through hundreds of "highlighted text."

6. Major problem with form links to PDF file since update 13.02.2024

   Major problem with form links to PDF file since update 13.02.2024

   I have a large PDF file collection with reciprocal links to other PDFs, which has been working without any problems for about 20 years.
   Since the last Reader update of 13/02/2024 (23.008.20533), opening PDF files via a link in the Acrobat form button (Open file) no longer works. The file is only partially opened and the error message "No PDF file" appears and Acrobat closes without any further entries.
   If I select this file directly for opening, it is loaded without any problems.
   Note:
   The linking of PDF files via bookmarks and the linking tool still works.
   The problem affects all PCs in our company.

7. moving a page to a specific numbered page within a document

   In earlier versions of acrobat, right click on a page will bring up a dialog for inserting a number where one wants to move a page. For example, if I am on pag 78, and want this page to be at page [before/after] say 10, then I right click page 78, and select move and insert page number 10 in dialog box. This is very helpful when you have all pages that cannot be displayed on a screen. Drag and drop works well for a screenful of pages, and is very difficult scrolling vertically or horizontally through several pages. I subscribed to Acrobat DC baed on assurance that such feature is incorporated in this new version. However, I did not find it, unless I missed it.

8. pdf not responding

   Simply just opening a pdf and attempting to scroll up or down causes the document to lag every time. It's renders the program nearly useless. Since I am paying a month subscription, I expect to not have problems like this.

9. Not implemented!!! Inherit zoom for all links

   Now that the zoom level for bookmarks can be set to inherit zoom, I'm worried you are not even thinking about the zoom settings for other links, while we still need those set to inherit link desperately.

   At the moment, there is no option to set the zoom level while creating the link. And there is no option to change the zoom level of all links at once. So we need to click each link in the document to manually close the zoom level, which means 8 clicks per link (not counting the clicks needed to create the link).
   This comes down to hundreds of clicks for a long document containing many links. Please change this. Things do not have to be this hard.

11. Why does the Bookmark always open upon Initial View even though I've selected Page Only in the Document Properties?

12. Lack of vertical scroll bar

    When using the latest version, the vertical scroll bar has been removed. Please add it, or, if it is in the program, have it load as the initial setting instead of having to work through IT department to change default settings.

14. Bug report: Unresponsive scroll wheel for large dialog boxes

    When using Acrobat Pro DC (Win 10) on a smaller screen (or lower resolution) and accessing a larger dialog box that displays a vertical scroll bar on the right (one example would be the General category dialog box under Edit|Preferences) the mouse scroll wheel has no affect and does not scroll the dialog box. The manual scroll bar does still work, but still annoying that the scroll wheel does not in these situations.

15. Text is shifting and changing as I scroll...

    I am trying to read a long pdf that's located on my computer and synched up to OneDrive. Each time that I scroll down, the text either disappears, fails to scroll, or fails to scroll and then suddenly scrolls three pages and I'm lost as to where I was in my reading. Sometimes the text is cut in half and overlaid by text from a different location. It is impossible to focus when the text won't stay where it's supposed to be. Please fix this!

16. Low Performance

    Mac Acrobat always stuck when opening a file from document cloud. Though it is downloading but the system regarded as it was dead. Also, when scrolling in file, or in viewing PDFs, the frame rate is low, about 15 frame per second, or even lower,(5fps). When the search box is open. It is not so friendly on Mac compared to the acrobat on iPad or iPhone, or even the web version!

17. MOVE THE CREATE BUTTON

    The "+ CREATE" button being at the very top is mildly inconvenient.

    I use Adobe to view PDFs quite often... constantly throughout the day. Everytime I try to grab the top of the screen to drag my Adobe window over to another screen, the only space that I have is just to the right of the CREATE button... and so every time I scroll over it, a pop up screen appears. Then I either accidentally click on it, opening up the CREATE A PDF screen (which I then have to close), or I have to wait for the pop up to disappear, so that I can grab the only available space on the top bar in order to drag my window...

    If you could either move the button... or at the very least, disable the pop-up menu, that would be extremely helpful.

18. camera raw version selection

    The new version of camera raw is inconvenient to use. I prefer the versions where the tools were at the top with icons and not on the right. it would be good if I could change versions to the previous interface myself. The new camera raw looks like LR and many people don't like it.
    scrolling down is a step back for more efficient work. It slows me down personally. old camera raw interface please

20. Accessibility and Reflow setting causes omitted content

    In recent versions of Word (say the last 6 months), the option "Enable Accessibility and Reflow with tagged Adobe PDF" causes text to be omitted from paragraphs that contain inline images (so obviously it can't be enabled when creating PDFs).

    Disabling the feature in the global settings causes the plugin to crash frequently. Disabling through the "Options" dialog in the "Save Adobe PDF File As" dialog avoids the crashing behavior ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

    However, confirming a change in that "Options" dialog causes the plugin to ignore the global per-style bookmark inclusion settings (overwriting them with "Include all" or so).

    All this together makes controlling the output of moderately complex documents extremely irritating. Of course unwanted bookmarks can be manually deleted, but this is not an ideal way to specify the contents of the pdf.

    Very simple example attached, along with an apparently correctly tagged pdf generated using the built in pdf features in Office.
