  1. Why on earth would I want a floating tool selector bar that blocks the view of the document I am trying to read? There isn't even an option to snap this back onto the top or bottom of the screen, or even in the new (unwanted) sidebar that contains loads of empty space?

    I'm officially done with Adobe PDF reader.

  4. Clicking on the Acrobat Reader icon in the Windows taskbar shows a thumbnail preview for each open tab. This is counter-intuitive because it is contrary to every other program i use and know that has tabs (e.g. Firefox, Chrome, File Explorer, Notepad etc.): they display a thumbnail preview for each open window, but not for every tab. Besides, Acrobat Reader’s behaviour is confusing if you have a lot of tabs open.

    Therefore, please don’t show tabs, only windows in the taskbar preview (or at least offer a setting for this).

    Environment:
    Adobe Acrobat Reader version 2024.005.20320
    Windows 11 version 24H2

  5. As an everyday user of Adobe Acrobat, I cannot tell you how absolutely annoying and frustrating it is to click through new "helpful tips" and "notes" and "Got It!" screens. It's driving me mad. It's at the point where the owner and I are searching for other e-Signature solutions. Please, please, please, PLEASE stop creating so many new notifications of all the features that I have to click through every time a select a menu option. Horrible user experience. Thank you

  6. I created a shortcut for the measuring tool within the floating widget; however, after the last update, this shortcut is not working. I have to go "All Tools" then select measuring tools in order for it to work. The kicker is the measuring tool is highlighted in the widget.

  7. How to go back to the much, much better original menu system. The new one is like a complete paradigm shift. If that is how it worked, I would have never subscribed since it is unusable. Horrible.

  8. HAD MENUS SET FOR EASILY DOING WHAT I DO. AFTER THE UI CHANGE I HAVE TO SPEND A DAY RESETTING THE MENUS. HIGHLY INEFFICIENT AND A WASTE OF MY TIME. DO NOT THINK THAT ONCE I RESET MY MENUS PERFORMANCE WILL BE IMPROVED, BECAUSE AFTER THE PREVIOUS UI CHANGE THAT WAS NOT THE CASE!!! FROM THE OTHER FEEDBACKS IT IS OBVIOUS THAT ABOBE DOES NOT CONSIDER THE USER!!

  9. I can't possibly be the only one to ask about this. The scroll bar has to be reinstated. It's such a basic and necessary item -- why would it have been removed in the first place? I hear that if you scroll down, you can get to the scroll bar -- but how can you get to the scroll bar to scroll down to the scroll, without having the scroll bar? I deal with accessibility for 150+ page documents and I just can't do my job without it. Please consider bringing it back in a usable way. Thank you.

  11. Ai feature removal requests aside, the f4 key is muscle memory for me to get to the Pages sidebar. Having to use the extra click to get out of the AI assistant panel and to the Pages panel that I want, is frustrating. And cumulatively, a time-suck. Feels like user-hostile UI practices.

    As a side note, like many, I do not use the AI features in Acrobat. Please serve customers and not stockholders.

  12. I use Acrobat Pro on Windows 11, and since some update, when I open the OneDrive storage folder, I can't sort the contents by date anymore, only by name.
    It only affects OneDrive! Other contents like Google Drive I can sort by date.

  13. Reduce header real estate consumption - too many options in the header. I only have 1" out of 6"-7" of a gray area to grab a pdf to drag, move, etc. Too many unnecessary options at the top: House (Home), + Create, ? - ok for help, bell symbol, 9 dots for other apps - removing these would free up valuable real estate in the header. Make them optional to turn on/off as needed.

  14. Whose good idea is it to move the bookmarks to the right side panel with no options to move it to the left? SUCKS Whose good idea is it to set it up so that I can't have both the comments bar and bookmarks displayed at the same time SUCKS I can't even tell what page, e.g., 5/124 I am on so that I can navigate easily or set footers to specific pages SUCKS And this is just in the first 5 minutes of my day

  15. In older versions of Acrobat the Constrain Proportions checkbox was above the margin dimensions boxes. That was far, far more usable for me, as 99.9% of the artwork I'm working with has uniform crop marks. I'm a keyboard user, so when the Crop dialog opens, I'll tab down to the dimensions. In previous versions I could press the space bar to check Constrain Proportions, tab to Top, type in my crop amount, tab to the next box and I was all set.

    Now I have to either click Constrain Proportions separately then shift+Tab to go back up, or tab several…

  16. While I am working on pdf documents with Acrobat, I keep having difficulties finding commands, toolbars, buttons that just a moment before were in some place, and then they suddenly disappear or moved to some hard to find place.
    I remember having used today a button to optimize a scanned document, which opened a dialog allowing me to customize compression settings (dpi). I can no longer find it (instead, I find a similar command but which does not allow me to customize compression settings besides a few simple settings).
    On the top toolbar, earlier today I have used the buttons…

  17. The new interface is making my work speed slow. It not convenient to search all the edit. The change was very big, and i would like adobe to incorporate to the older version.

  18. the complete list of Starred items is missing and only 6 starred items are being shown under starred section.
    Paid version of Adobe acrobat DC is seriously missing the GUI and common accessibility things which competition is providing. looks they are still in the "DOS" era.

  20. I have spent way too much time trying to find tools I use all the time. There is nothing intuitive about the new interface. I reverted back to the old version and I'm happily finding and using the tools I need.
