  1. Please remove the "Get business features." upgrade prompt from the tools panel. I'm an individual user and already pay for the full Creative Cloud suite, so I'm never going to need a team plan. Having that prompt on my screen constantly with no way of getting rid of it is really annoying!

  4. previously, when extracting a page, I had control of where it went and how to do it. This feature is now called a split? This upgrade is absolutely assenine. Your team took a perfectly functional aspect of Adobe and ****** it up. There is now no control where it goes. It keeps the original document. There's no "how to use" your new product upgrade, which, lets be honest, is a downgrade. I pay >$150/year for this for YEARS, the least your team could do was to make the interface simple and seamless - with maybe some tips so when you…

  5. Adobe Reader Version 2023.00.020244 64bit. When opening a PDF file with more than 1000 pages, the total page number is displayed in 4 digits, but the current page number is displayed in a text box with only the top 3 digits displayed. If you click on the text box, all four digits are displayed. If you click on the text box, all four digits are displayed.

  6. In the new version UI, when using Find (Ctrl+F) sometimes the search yields no results, and in consequence causes a popup saying that it didn't find the result, independently if the term I was looking for is in the documente. (please see attachment).

    The before behaviour is not showing an popup when the search yielded no results.

    This popup will interfere with the focus on the UI, and pressing Esc to get rid of the Find bar will only get rid of the popup, not the entire bar.
    To remove the bar I need to press 2 times Esc now,…

  8. 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.

  9. In Acrobat, my own mouse pointer changes into a standard black acrobat pointer. For what reason? No other application does this.

    See pictures. I am left handed an use a left hand mouse pointer. In acrobat it turns to right hand pointer. (see pictures)

    Please leave the pointer as it is!!!

  10. In Windows 11, the side toolbar placement is right on top of the document being viewed, obscuring the content (screenshot attached). There is no option to drag and drop it somewhere else. This was not an issue in Windows 10.

    Moreover, the toolbars allow for customization, but there is no option to set those customizations as the default, so every time the app gets launched for a new sessions, I have to reset my desired customizations again. This wasn't an issue in Windows 10.

  11. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 2020 there is a big blue "Share" button that is appearing at the top of all the PDF documents in my patients' charts in our EMR.

    I don't think I need to elaborate about how abhorrent it is to see a big bright "Share" button on top of protected Personal Health Information.

    I can customize the toolbar to hide this button in Acrobat itself, but not in the embedded browser of our EMR.

    HOW CAN THIS BE TURNED OFF?? I need this fixed immediately.

  12. I just opened Adobe after the latest auto-update was installed bypassing my preferred settings (that I keep changing) of having the auto-update disabled. Before this update I thought Adobe couldn't get any better but I was wrong. Now, not only is the bookmarks tab opened upon opening a document but this new all tools tab opens as well providing the user even less of an area to view the document.

    It is possible for Abobe to add another box/screen/feature to open upon opening a document thus blocking the entire document we are trying to view/edit?

    Complements to the genius who…

  14. I use Acrobat on both Windows PC and Mac (latest Windows 11 and Macos14 sonoma). I downloaded Acrobat from Creative Cloud and kept it updated all the time. A few months ago i found the Acrobat UI was changed on my Mac and when i finally got used to the new UI, recently it just changed back to the old version again by itself and i no longer saw the UI switch button. It's really annoying. And one interesting thing is, the Acrobat UI on my Windows PC never changed even though i used the same account in Creative Cloud. …

  16. Adobo Pro Contin release V 2023.006.20320, please add/restore "SAVE AS" icon picture with floppy disc & pencil to top toolbar next to normal "SAVE" icon.

Please have qualified software developer reincorporate this icon up at the top.

  17. UX design used to be to provide the best possible functional interface to allow the end user to be as productive as possible. The latest Adobe Acrobat interface flys in the face of these standards. It has moved menus, hidden functionality behind icons and in the name of looking cool or nice has ruined my productivity.

    I never comment in these forums, but what you have done with the latest interface is so dysfunctional that if you worked for me I would fire the lot of you.

  18. In Windows 10 you have the possibility to scroll inactive windows (Start > Settings > Devices > Mouse > Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them).

    You only have to hover over the inactive window with the mouse and you can scroll. It's the same with zooming. When you press CTRL and scroll, it zooms the window under the cursor of the mouse. It works with all other apps, i.e. MS Office, even other Adobe apps like Illustrator, InDesign, etc. but not with Adobe Acrobat. You have to actually click (activate) the window with PDF for that to work.…

  19. On the new Acrobat, there is no setting to change the default for this. It defaults to ON at all times. I am a legal professional, and this would be a big improvement for me. Users who regularly navigate long PDFs of hundreds of pages or more would benefit from having this setting OFF when opening documents, instead of having to disable it every time. As a side note, to my mind, a selection available from the current settings SHOULD achieve this, but currently does not - see attached. There is currently no difference that I can discern between Single…

  20. Adobe Acrobat update 23.6.20320.0. When a PDF is open and you zoom in, the scroll bars disappear. Makes navigating PDFs really painful.
