  1. Tool bar limitations are getting ugly. For example, cannot add / edit navigation tools to tool bar anymore. Some of us like to jump to the beginning / end of a document without having to wade through layers of menus. And why are the commonly used tools (page up page down print etc) tucked down in the lower right hand corner instead of on the tool bar near the top of the window like normal folk do?! Speaking of, there is a tool bar there but it is all empty space. What a freaking waste of screen space for no…

  2. Why did you move everything around and make it infinitely more complicated to do the basic editing tasks I use the most - like copying and pasting pages between pdfs or within a pdf. Everything basics seems harder.

  3. I want to open these files with the panels collapsed; I want a clean view to view theses. And in general, to keep the panel collapsed, If I want to edit or anything I can open the full panel. I recently got an Issue with this. And I shared my screen with support, with the right configuration in the preferences, for regaular files like a Presentation or a Document it would open with the panels collapsed, but for documents like Plans created with CAD files it would keep opening either the thumbnails or layers panels, and we figured out that…

  5. When the system setting on macOS for "Show scroll bars" is set to "Always", Adobe Acrobat does not honor this setting.

    If you toggle the setting in macOS system settings to another option and then back to "Always", the scroll bar shows up.

    If you close the PDF or Acrobat, or open a different PDF, the scroll bar disappears.

    The scrollbar should always be present on all PDF's when this setting is checked in the macOS System Settings, OR an option should be available in the Adobe Acrobat preferences with similar functionality.

  7. The sharing, feedback, tutorial and notifications icons in the top right don't seem to have a way to hide them and free up the real estate for more useful icons. The is especially important when using a single monitor with two documents side by side. I need to be able to see the page forward and back buttons

  9. You have to ask, Who is in charge?!
    Why does Adobe try their utmost to make their programmes so counter intuitive. Global industry standard since day one has been basic commands in the top LH corner. Not now, this backward programme stuffs them elsewhere, or completely hides/removes them.

  10. Trash the entire new system and go back to the previous version immediately. This is not a case of people needing to get used to it. It is fundamentally flawed in so many ways that I can't even list them. You can easily find them from anybody else who tries to use your software daily. The last major update prior to this was pretty poor, but this one is one of the worst interface updates I have ever seen for any platform. Ever.

  11. We have clients reporting an issue that causes an inconsistant behaviour and user experience opening PDF files that contains LiveCycle XFA forms.

    Our users receive PDF generated files from government containing those XFA forms with filled data. If user open that PDF file on Adobe Reader, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome or any other PDF reader other than Adobe Acrobat Pro, they see filled data regarding "person A". If they open the same file on Adobe Acrobat Pro, as Acrobat Pro can identify that LiveCycle XFA form, it shows different filled data "person B".

    As you expect, this causes different user…

  13. Not being able to view participants in side pane when first opening the program.

    Steps to reproduce and observed result:
    Once the Acrobat Pro is open and I go to the agreements, I wait a moment for them to load. I click on one of the files to view the information pane to see which people are involved in that file to see who completed the form. When I go to click the tab to view the people, the pane closes and I have to click the file in the list again. It will do this a few times. I…

  14. There is an ever-going issue with how to replace a signature that have been used once with another one. The problem has been there for more than a couple of years now, and I truly find it strange that lots of users have approached you about the same but you still did not fix it!

    Whenever you try replacing the existing signature that you have used the last time with a new one by clicking the symbol (x) or (-) that will never workout, unless you repeated this ten and sometimes hundreds of times! It very frustrating and time consuming…

  15. There's no way to add/edit background/watermark without activating the whole "edit pdf" function, which processes the document, taking time and often introducing unexpected changes to the content in order to make it "editable". Previously the background/watermark function did just that. If I'm working with a background/watermark it's probably because I want to leave the original content unchanged. This also leads to longer save times. I can no longer reliably use this feature.

  17. Whenever I open a new document, this is displayed for 10-15 seconds and then the app opens by itself an old document. Could be from the same day or the day before or even older documents. Without any relation or logic. Just pop- opens a new windows with the old doc. This is crazy. Drives me nuts every time. Cannot be stopped.

  19. Updates are killing work flow. It took me calling in to find out how to undo what the automatic updates changed. I get that change is a part of any program's life, but when your change interrupts the ability to smoothly work within the program, for no other reason than 'change is good', you are failing your customers. If you are going to continue to force change (bad changes at that) on your customers, get ready to loose them to 3rd party programs.

    If change is required, add in a way that we can modify to keep what we need…

  20. Pontificating that there must be a "newbie user" segment who needs extra assistance in using Acrobat, I ask that you please remember you have a multitude of Perennial Power Users who don't need the constant hand holding, introductions, or reminders in pop ups. My efficiency is being damaged by the interruptions. While presenting in meetings, these pops ups are unprofessional and actually drove me to choose to default to opening PDFs in Microsoft Word. Yes. The unintended consequence of YOUR programming choice has driven me to use the big bad competitor's application. Please provide an option to opt out of…
