  1. ADD THE ABILITY TO TURN OFF BOOKMARKS WHEN OPENING ALL DOCUMENTS, NOT JUST THE CURRENT ONE.

  2. Please allow users to hit the escape key to dismiss pop-ups (such as asking to try the new Acrobat experience), rather than forcing use of the mouse. Even better would be not to pop the messages up altogether. Even Microsoft Office products allow the escape key to dismiss its annoying pop-ups.

  3. Congratulations on complicating something that should be really straight forward. At least make everything editable, so I can keep the buttons I use more as shortcuts. The pages navigator and zoom being on the right side is just plain stupid.

  4. I'm not sure what the purpose of the constant changes to the program's interface is. Why was the toolbar moved from the right side to the left side? What does it mean? I have a problem with that. If I make a tutorial for colleagues at work, every change in the interface can be very confusing. It would probably be best to return the changes in the interface back to the original state.

  6. The find function does not work. used to be you could search for a word anywhere in the pdf and find would "find it". Even if the text was some screwy custom text that came back as triangles when you copied it into the browser, if you just copied that text in to the find application it would find that text elseward in the file. Even if it was in the notes, find would find it there.

    now there is nothing. you enter text in the find field and nothing. Like it's completely unconnected.

  7. I LOVED adobe a few years ago up until recently, where everything is so overcomplicated and impossible to use that I would rather inscribe my documents onto a stone tablet and give it to my boss. Expansion and upgrades just to seem flashy while serving no purpose have ruined this application. Additionally, why is it impossible to save things to my desktop?? It wasn't an issue for 30 years but now there are 5 buttons to save something to my cloud and the desktop option is still MIA in my eyes.

  8. This is the worst. takes hours to get a simple thing like a drop down list to work. (still Doesn’t work) Even your website is a convoluted mess. It took 15 min to find this then you have to go through 20 options to write a review. I shouldn't need a PHD to write a simple form that auto populates date and time. I've had to watch 10 videos, that were out of date, and still have gotten nowhere.
    Your text boxes Choose what ever size they want to be and not what I need them to be.

  9. The new "what's next" side panel button does not go away when de-selecting it from the side panel tool bar. It abruptly opens after changing between tools like Scan/OCR to Accessibility. This happens after editing a PDF as well. It is disruptive and unhelpful for my workflow.

  10. Every other stupid user interface you've introduced has at least been reversible or I could work around it. Now I'm stuck with a user interface that is COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE. For the work I do, I SIMPLY CANNOT USE IT. I need to be able to switch rapidly from one window to another, to compare for QC, so having immovable tools on the sides that get clicked accidentally makes that impossible. If this doesn't change, I will be forced to stop using Adobe products. Oh, and fire whoever thought this up, because they suck.

  11. WORST UPDATE EVER!!! Both me, vision impaired with a screen enhancer program, and my boyfriend, an IT Pro, sincerely HATE this new version after only a few hours. The shortcuts are ****, the buttons we used to navigate are gone or just moved to new positions (a.k.a. "the Microsoft disease" - new look, no new features), new shortcuts don't work (Next page by Arrow right? NOPE, does not work.) PLEASE implement an option to revert to the old layout/look, and FAST!!!

  12. 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…

  13. 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.

  14. 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…

  15. Preset bookmarks and user set bookmarks or bookmark groups simply don't exist and make it hard to print those bookmarked pages specifically. Please include bookmark categories.

  16. 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.

  17. The dang AI pop up keeps popping up in front of things I need, I don't know how to read what I need without it popping up in front of it... you make the cursor go away and the pop up goes away, but when you go back because you're trying to highlight something it just pops up again... give it it's own space, not floating in front of the documents. Same can be said for the toolbar... keep it off my document, keep it below or on the side, do not cover the whole reason why I have this…

  18. 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

  20. 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.
