  1. New layout of Adobe Reader is utterly counterproductive, and makes everyday use of Adobe Reader much slower and confusing.
    I, as well as many other users I know, am using Bookmarks and Pages in at least 95% of times when I use Reader. Therefore, they should be placed on the left, where they are expected to be (it is simply a standard for similar "master-detail" situations).
    Also, primary tools, like paging, zoom-in and -out, are placed in a bottom-right corner, just like they were hiding?! But these are the basic tools, and they must be placed centrally, either on top…

  2. I tire of having to re learn how to do things that were one key stroke or mouse click operations but now are 2 hand tasks or impossible to do. Why is it so important to change look and feel to "be like" google or microsoft or apple?

  3. Hello,

    I have been using Acrobat Reader from Day 1 in the 1990s until today, and it remains my first choice for PDF documents.

    I often have 20-30 manuals open during my workday and I depend on the option to keep position in the documents so that when I open Acrobat Reader in the morning, I expect to be able to pick up where I left off.

    Lately (last year or so) Acroread has been losing my position in some but not all of the documents. And it does not retain the view (page size, 2 up) and very recently…

  4. 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…

  5. How can I escape the default of all docs opening in tabs within one window? That does not suit my drafting needs AT ALL. I need them to open in separate windows & I can't figure out how to set that up. HELP.

  6. I support a law firm and request a more non technical way to identify 3rd party PDF Produced documents to better support end users with PDF displaying issues. We currently Print to Adobe PDF printer any problem document once the document is reported as a problem but is there a way where Adobe can warn the end user that the document is created by a 3rd party and not produced by an Adobe product. Something like a colored banner that just informs the end user with out clicking into File --> Properties --> PDF Producer:

    Again this is for non…

  7. Please bring back the document page size in the lower left corner of the window. There's a preference for it but it's non-functional! I used to use this reference many times a day and now I have to go into doc properties to find it. Very frustrating!

  8. in previous version of Acrobat, you could set a Preference/General to open files in separate windows. This is not available in our current version per Adobe support.
    Cannot go back to older version as this is a municipal account.
    Please add this option.

  9. Hello
    The UI has just been updated under Windows (2024-01-18), which I like so far.
    But what has remained the same is the settings window.
    I have now counted over 320 (!!!) individual setting options in all categories.
    What do you think, does this contribute to user-friendliness?
    I think certainly not.
    The other day I finally dug through all the options to see what else would make sense to set.
    I was extremely busy for many hours.
    And I think a lot of things could be simplified and left out or implemented in a more user-friendly way.
    Or perhaps an…

  12. On new Adobe, when I adjust the size of the thumbnail view, it now makes the thumbnail really big without also letting me adjust how many thumbnails are displayed per row. I want to be able to see 2 or 3 rows of thumbnails at a time but I have to make the thumbnails pane really big and increase the thumbnail size a lot before that kicks in. And there's way too much wasted white space between the thumbnails as well. Please bring back the ability to see multiple rows of thumbnails or make it a separate function than the…

  14. In Adobe Acrobat Pro original UI Plugins are placed at the top making it easy to access. In the new UI released a couple of weeks ago, Plugins are buried in the settings menu making them very cumbersome to use. Please move the Plugins back to the top bar.

  16. I have my Default Page Layout Settings to Single Page Continuous, Fit Page, but documents ALWAYS open to Two Up Page Layout. It should open to the Default Page Layout as specified.

    I also have "Restore last view settings when reopening documents" under Documents Category turned ON, does not make a difference.

    Thank you.

  17. This is in regard to the new look of Adobe Acrobat. I changed my view back to the older version. My suggestion is to leave the toolbar and include a popup tip that tells how to turn it off. I spent an hour trying to find the toolbar, how to turn it on. I tried customize, several different options. I tried using AI and it said there was no option to do that. Thank you for the opportunity to interact
    When I googled the question, there appeared to be many other users with the same challenge

  19. This is a bug. The color selector under book mark properties is truncated.

    1. Open multiple page pdf.
    2. Create a bookmark.
    3. Right click on the bookmark name to open the context menu and select properties.
    4. Click on the color to change it.

    Results: The color selector box is truncated on Windows 11, Acrobat v. 2024.002.20687 64-bit (Geez, why does the version disappear when I click outside of the app!) If you open the Edit tool and click on to change the color of a font the selector has more choices.

    Expected: All the colors please!

  20. The user interface for Adobe Acrobat is not intuitive, and the font is so tiny that it's difficult to read I want to switch it back to my original configuration and it won't allow me to do this. I hate it with a passion. I don't have time to fiddle around to try and figure out all this new stuff when it was fine before. It does not look slicker, and the toolbars are in the way when I am doing zoom, which is why I don't like it this way!
