(thinking…)

This monstrosity is unusable garbage

I use Adobe Pro at work. I comment and mark up blueprints for parts in the automotive industry. The update moving the menu items to a side panel was completely needless, and as you did so you removed features or hid them to where they were effectively removed. I can add text but can I change the font or color? Maybe. Can't find it though. Custom stamps to add? Good luck finding them, and when you do get your clicking finger ready. This thing is awful!

    Hi, We appreciate the time and effort you took to leave us a remark since we're constantly searching for ways to make Acrobat better.

    The search field on top ("Find text or tools") allows you to not only search for content within the document but also find and access tools.

    The tool reorganization allowed us to streamline the user experience, ensuring tools were logically grouped according to their functionalities and significance.

    Specific to Edit, once you Add Text or try to Edit the text by clicking on existing Edit box, the FORMAT TEXT options appear in Edit tool pane that allows you to

    We have also added the Quick tools bar to provide easy access to tools. Additionally, you can add more tools by customizing it.

    Following up on this reply, we'll write a thorough blog post explaining the changes, provide you with a guide to help you get used to the new interface, and keep you updated on any further changes that might be coming. We are also updating our helpx page that will assist you better - https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/new-acrobat-experience.html

    Once again, we appreciate your comments. Please stay tuned for more of our upcoming releases.

    I agree with everyone - new update is radically different and significantly slows my work productivity as I need to re-learn how to find & use all the tools I've been using for years.

    Your new version (2023.003) is just TERRIBLE. WHY change something that was working well before, and that everyone just KNEW how to use? WHY? What is the purpose of changing the interface just for the change. It is TERRIBLE. It is also very BUGGY, and freezes constantly. WHY purposefully make our lives harder?
