Full Tools, Menu customisation
Acrobat DC wastes so much screen space in non-customisable areas - It is common to 'snap' the Acrobat Application to Half-Screen - but doing so hides many menu Tools, but ALWAYS leaves 'Home, Tools, Document & then The Login Name. - These are rarely (never) used.
Please allow them to be Hidden, Or return Menu/Tool icons to a 'normal' design/style as used in the previous 10 versions of Acrobat.
'PRO' does not = Tablet user.
Hi,
We are delighted to share with you that Acrobat and Reader Desktop release for DC Continuous (21.007.20091) is Live now and this Takes care of the Feature Request to Change the Display Size of the Acrobat without changing the Scaling/Resolution of the machine. This can be Done from “View” → “Display Size”. For now this is avaialble for windows only.
More Info Here : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/whats-new.html and go to “Change Acrobat Display Size”
Please update your Acrobat (It should Auto update or you should do Help → Check for updates) and let us know your Feedback.
Thanks

Please change the start up screen on Acrobat Pro dc. It stresses me out seeing all those file that I don't need.

Agreed, I would like the ability to make the Tool Bar icons smaller

Please remove the startup/recent files page. It blocks my desktop and is an unnecessary click to have to close it every time I open a PDF.

May I ask why you mad any changes to Adobe Acrobat which was a good product! The Tool Bar is as I have said before Too Cumbersome to use!!! If you do not return your product to the user-friendly, efficient product I used all day long I will have to change my entire work system but to What...a bazillion Apps each doing less than a quarter of the options ...Also what happened to the green underlining option. I always used this in conjunction with highlighting. Plus, when I subscribed to Creative Cloud, I expected to have the option to underline and highlight in multiple colors. I was sure my older non-subscription product was not as advanced as a subscription product. Instead I feel as though I am back in the stone age.

I use Adobe Acrobat DC to create and edit PDFs throughout my work-day. I always try to size the window so that my Quick Tools will show. However, now that the Feedback and Learn Adobe icons are showing in the toolbar, I'd have to make the window larger than needed just to see my Quick Tools. I've searched but have not found any way to remove those two icons from the toolbar. Those options should be in the Help menu, not taking up space in the toolbar (same goes for Home & Tools).

Having finally made it possible to permanently hide the Page Controls, you still waste valuable toolbar space with the Help and Feedback icons.
Please will you remove the FEEDBACK and the HELP icons and put them out of the way somewhere - you don't seem to have understood that we who use the product in Pre-Press need AS MUCH SPACE FOR TOOLS AS POSSIBLE

Hello,
Thanks for Reaching out to us for your Queries.
I would like to let you know that you can always Drag and drop your Favorite Apps from the Right hand Panel to the Top toolbar to quickly access those apps.
Also you can add the Tools(such as commenting tools) to the top toolbar by drag drop from the comment app to the top toolbar.Anyways, you can always use "Customize quick tools" menu from the toolbar context menu toolbar to add/delete tools from your Top toolbar.
Let me know if that helps.
Thanks

Should be able to drag and drop tools you use often to the customized tool bar at the top of the document. Why does it have to be so hard to do that?

when opening Acrobat the list of recent files default is distracting and unuseful. Acrobat should open to a blank page as it had done in all previous versions.

Hi,
Sorry for the issue that you are facing with the Recent list in Home View.
Can you please specifically let us know exactly where are you facing issues in the recent list

Yes please! Even the icons are too big and too spaced out.

How do I get rid of the @#$@$$! Get Started screen that stays up when I close all document tabs? Very annoying. Previous version preference seems to have been removed. This annoyance is in Acrobat Pro DC 2017 and Reader on Windows

New tool bars are horrible. All single color and look very similar. Very hard to decipher which tool is which.
Limiting to a single line of tools is also problematic. Miss the ease of the older right hand menu too (example - extracting a page used to be very simple click; now it is 3-4 steps).
Much prefer the old version's (X) ease of use.

WOULD PREFER TOOL BARS/ICONS TO BE SMALLER. THEY TAKE UP TOO MUCH SPACE ON THE SCREEN.

Even on the new black themed layout, the icons are massive. It would be nice to be able to make those title bars slimmer and icons smaller to allow more visual and working space. Currently they just take up so much room and it really is not needed. That is what the magnification tool is for, people who need to see things larger than normal people.
Just get rid of the Home and Tools tab/bar all together. I find them annoying and not necessary. It would free up so much space. You already have the shortcuts you customize on either the actual toolbar or on the right side window.
TBH, I was using Acrobat Pro 11 for the LONGEST time, I unfortunately have to force myself to get used to this new interface.
Anyways, just my 2 cents.

Interface is clunky and difficult to navigate. Full support of menu customization including ability to create user defined keyboard shortcuts and workspaces would be a huge improvement.

You can delete all recent files by clicking on 'Clear Recent Files' button at the bottom in 'Recent tab'
