  1. Pressing Cmd+Tilde (~) in Acrobat used to cycle between all active windows. A recent update changed that behaviour and it now stops after one window change. there is no easy way to flick back and forth between documents. This is different to how it works in other CC apps, eg, InDesign and Illustrator, so I can only assume this is a bug. I use Cmd+Tilde constantly. Please fix! Thanks!

  3. With last version (2024.002.20687 64bit) if I click on X to close document and Adobe Reader I have to wait about 3 seconds.
    This doesn't happen if I do it after 20 seconds from opening or if I open application without opening any documents.
    Please resolve in nex release thanks!

  4. The display mode buttons are awkward and unclear.
    The icons do not permit to foresee the visualisation behavior.
    The old buttons prior to this innovation were much more convenient.
    Adobe should offer the option of reverting back to the old display.

  5. Remove main/welcome screen, that lists lots of files, and gives sidebar and toolbar. I only want to view one document at a time, and do not want a previous-documents list.

  6. If you open a PDF which has clickable links to other pages in the document and then click on one of those links before the Free 7-day trial box has appeared in the bottom corner then the app crashes. If you want for the box to appear, or switch back to the old experience then it works fine.

    This is on the latest version of both Adobe Acrobat Reader and Windows 11 Enterprise.

  9. Now the new update makes Reader compact and the UI looks cool. But I feel bookmarking tabs could have been placed on the left side of the screen as it makes access to it much easier. The full-screen mode has also become better.

  10. The new "+ Create" button on the right side of the tabs is totally misplaced. It opens a popup that gets in the way when you want to move the window, if you have a lot of tabs open, which I usually do. The more logical place for it would definitely be in the toolbar below. It's just annoying and makes me want to install another reader.

  11. The rubbish message bar that appears under the already wasteful 2 menu bars when there is a limitation or error CAN NOT BE CLOSED.

    This specific error bar can't be hidden by clicking the red cross, and I only have two options in the drop menu - both to enable javascript - that I DO NOT WANT.

    Per all my other comments adobe's hideous reader interface:
    a) LET ME GET RID OF THE MESSAGE, javascript on or off.
    b) STOP wasting screen space
    c) LE ME GET RID OF ALL THE CLUTTER YOU ADD TO THE PAGE. IT DOES NOT…

  12. Single Key Accelerator (U) selects "underline" tool. This is unexpected when the last tool used in this category (Underline, Highlight, Strikethrough) was "Highlight" AND the shift key was not pressed (i.e., Shift + U)).

    Expected behavior is to return to last tool used under Single Key Accelerator (U).

  13. When I investigated why my large, inefficient screen had been on for days, I found that AcroCEF.exe was holding a Video Wake Lock, apparently because it had embedded edge to run an advertisement for itself. This is absolutely not OK.

    powercfg /requests
    DISPLAY:
    [PROCESS] \Device\HarddiskVolume4\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe
    Video Wake Lock
    [PROCESS] \Device\HarddiskVolume4\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Acrobat\acrocef_1\AcroCEF.exe
    Video Wake Lock

  14. Absolutely hated the new Acrobat experience. Thankfully just noticed a button to disable it. Interface was awful.. things moved around confusingly and found myself spending extra time in every document in order to find things. Seems like maybe you were trying to maximize screen space for documents by collapsing menus and buttons, but this seemed completely unnecessary to me. It was buggy.. it consistently froze whenever I tried to 'Fill & Sign' and selected my signature for use.

  15. I used to print details of the pages, and to do so I used the "Capture" button. Now that button has disappeared and I can't edit the buttons bar to add it back.

  17. The line spacing between bookmarks in the bookmarks panel is now a full line, meaning the content of this panel is 50% wasted space. Plus they are all indented, which is more wasted space especially because many now spill over onto a second line. On my 1440-pixel tall display, I can see 30 items. But if I open the same document in Firefox, the bookmark panel shows 42 items. So it's much easier to find what I am looking for in a long document.

    Please don't design everything for touch. I don't need giant touch targets. I want to see…

  18. What in the world were you thinking? Let's see... How hard can we make it to use our once-productivity-enhancing product? This is simply change for evil's sake. I'm going to stop using AAP altogether. What a disaster.

  20. All menus should stay at the TOP out of the way, not all over the sides eating up my document real-estate. And now there's a FLOATING MENU RIGHT ON TOP OF MY DOCUMENT that I cannot get rid of. A moderator commented - Choose Help/Check for Updates, and update your acrobat and that floating menu will be docked again. But it says NO UPDATE AVAILABLE.

    PLEASE leave the user interface CONFIGURABLE so we can set it up the way we need.

    I long for the old days when the Acrobat interface was open and simple... instead of trying to cram…
