  1. Adobe Acrobat DC keeps turning off the shadows of my explorer windows. Changing the theme in Acrobat doesn't help.

    Workaround if you encounter this problem:

    1. Windows key + r
    2. Run: sysdm.cpl
    3. Advanced
    4. on Performance -> Settings
    5. Under Visual Effects tab -> Show shadows under windows -> Apply

    Probably repeat after restarting Acrobat

  2. SEARCH: Pale blue/grey highlight is very difficult to find in documents with similar colours. Please add shade colour selection.

  3. The menu bar and all drop downs automatically highlight when I run my mouse over them - I can find no place to stop this or change any setting.
    I can't read the text!

  4. When you search a document, the found instances are highlighted in a grey blue colour that is very hard to notice. This defeats the purpose of a search function. Either the colour should be changed to something brighter or the user should be able to change the colour in settings.

  6. Is there a way to disable the bookmarks pane from opening by default on Mac? I've seen people edit the registry on Windows computers to achieve this but haven't been able to find a similar solution for Mac.

  7. It's very annoying to have the page with Home and Tools, and recent documents, open every time a PDF is opened. Please give us an option to stop that from happening.

  8. I'll add a tool, in this case Action Wizard, to the tool bar and Acrobat only seems to "remember" my new tool bar for a a few days and then sets everything back to its original state.

  9. The blue popup boxes that come up when opening/editing PDFs may be helpful for new users, but for experienced users they are everything from useless through condescending and all the way into genuinely in the way of working. I for one don't need to have the 'Add Text' button pointed out for me when I am editing a PDF, or a box come up and say "This looks like a form". I know what I'm working on, and the popups are as unwelcome and unhelpful as Clippy.

    All we need is a little checkbox on the blue boxes saying "Do…

  10. Is there a way to pin the Certificates toolbar, or at least the Digitally Sign button?

    Each time I go to sign a document, I have to go into "More Tools" on the right hand side, and then click on Certificates.

  11. It is exceptionally annoying that pages in Adobe DC do not smoothly scroll. When you get to the bottom of a page the next page 'snaps' to the top of the page. This is contrary to human psychology... Just follow the eyes of your users. When this happens the users eyes are often at the bottom of the page. When the annoying 'next' page snaps up, the user has to move his eyes and often their head to re-find the new focus point at the top of the screen because that is where the next content is found.

    Space between…

  12. The popup that comes up for the user is in a most annoying position. The main reason is that it covers text that the user is in the process of reading.

    There is often better grey space to put this in. It might even be better to have this at the top if you must insist on it being present. This is because people read top to bottom and often hover over the text to read and it is less likely to occur at the top of a page because the user is not likely keeping their place.

    And why…

  13. There should be a keyboard shortcut for the "Fit one full page to window" button. I use this button every time I open a PDF (usually because the document settings are set to one-page continuous, my application settings are already set to one page).

  14. That setting is missing for one user and present for a newly created user.
    How do we get it back? When it's missing, the use of pen-based entries is horrible. When it's present the pen-based activity is fine.

  15. My adobe acrobat pro is paid by a company who requires me to write a report for them (paid per document) while my adobe photography plan is personal subscription.

    It's not easy to switch between accounts in Photoshop but worse in Adobe Acrobat. If you are currently login with your other account. the options are only: "Buy, Try for free, or Quit." Why there isn't "sign in with different account" or at least an option to sign out>> sign-in as in Photoshop welcome page?

  16. Most PDF documents I open are for viewing (prefer to open in DC Reader that is got my preferred tool bar arrangements) and seldom for editing (which can be 'open with' DC Pro). Since I have both DC Reader and DC Pro installed, it does not allow me to 'open with' DC Reader anymore, even though I get option on the right-click to open menu.

  17. This new version looks so childish! Not professional in appearance at all.

    AND... too many steps to digitally sign a document! It used to be so easy! Can't you revert back to what worked smoothly???????

    I truly detest working in Acrobat now.

  18. There is an option to always close all tabs in the dialog pop up but no option to just close the current tab by default when X'ing out on the top right of the window. I would like to be able to just close the current tab by default.

  19. Many people in my company experienced same issue with slow Adobe DC and frozen screen, this became major issue for productivity and if left unresolved will force us to look for other alternatives. We googled similar issues experienced by other users and tried many solutions but could not resolve. And this is not network or firewall issue as it also occurred when work from home.

  20. Adobe Acrobat Standard keeps saying connection status check your internet connection can't verify subscription. Password is correct. Spoke with support and because we have Trend AV apparently this is a known issue. Need a fix ASAP
