Tabs design mistake
Tabs have an empty area above them, meaning you can't take the mouse all the way to the top of the screen to quickly select a tab.

Seconding this, it's very odd and annoying that clicking the 1mm of space above the tab doesn't change to that tab unless you move the mouse down a few mm, as clicking ability extending to the top of the screen is a pretty standard format for applications that use tabs, even ones that do have that mm or 2 of padding visually (such as the current version of Google Chrome)

Not feeling like what I wrote was actually read.
There is empty space ABOVE the tabs, half a mm or so that takes away from the reading space, but the problem it causes is that you can't just slam your mouse to the top of the screen to click the tab, you need to go away from the redundant space to click a tab. That is a design mistake, not a choice. Tabs at the top is what everyone does, and that's correct. How you've done it is a mistake.

Hi Sjaak,
We acknowledge that new acrobat presents a notable change to the users, to maximize the reading area of the document, we have kept tabs at the top.
