  1. Dear Acrobat,

    Please listen to customers and stop alienating them. People become dependent on your product through work. Please restore the version you threw out. You are creating unnecessary pain. Why does your company resist real feedback?

  2. Along with others I am horrified at the tragic mess the UX (yes, user experience) has become. The UI design is following the unfortunate trend of "unify everything" into a web/mobile topology that has been infecting applications for a while now.

    I had a well-developed workflow in Acrobat Pro, that the new & obnoxious UI design, that you shoved down my CPU's throat, broke. More than that, the usability of the new atrocity is a step back.

    A number of problems/defects are exhibited, but the three deal breakers are:
    1- the floating toolbar (it's fine to have it as an…

  3. When "Enable scrolling" is off, as it is by default, mouse scroll can scroll 10 pages or more in an instant, if the vertical page size is a little larger than the screen. It is unusable for me, so I need to change the setting every time I open a document, since the setting does not persist.

    Why not make it so the setting will persist, so I don't need to change it every time I open a document?

  4. I shake my head every time a software company changes its look or its lay-out just for the sake of change. If it's not broke, LEAVE IT ALONE!!!

    This week has been taxing because a good majority of my work deals with Adobe Pro documents. My muscle memory is completely off because y'all decided to flip the layout to opposite sides of the screen. I have to squint every time I'm looking for the print button. It's just like when Samsung decided to change sides for the volume and power buttons. Why?

    Where is my "Save As" icon?!? I shouldn't…

  5. When you click on the shaft of the scroll bar, it doesn't go down/up by a page, but by more than a page.
    This only happens when "Enable scrolling" in disabled in the toolbar.

    Steps to reproduce: Disable "Enable scrolling" in the page navigation toolbar. Click with the mouse left button on the scroll bar shaft region to scroll one page up or down.

    Environment: Windows 10 Pro. Acrobat Reader Continuous Release | Version 2024.005.20320 | 64-bit

    Expected behavior: Scrolling one page up or down.

    Observed behavior: Scrolling more than one page up or down.

  6. This has to be the dumbest user interface "upgrade" I have ever seen in my LIFE!!!! Tasks that I used to breeze through are taking me forever. The **** stamps won't turn off after I use it one time and only need it one time. I used to be able to copy text boxes and paste them. Way to foul things up!!!

  7. Your new interface update is horrible. I understand the need for simplification the attempt to make things easier for the end user, but not every one has the same needs. I don't NEED a tool bar that I can't get rid of or at least customize for my needs. I need a program that will give me the option to select and de-select the functions I use on a daily basis. I don't care about e-sign, but I would like to have an icon to organize pages with out having to go through two or three menus.

    Yes you made…

  8. the new version of Adobe Acrobat Pro is horrible. The layout is totally counter productive. buttons and toolbars have been moved to places they should not be. this new design is more than a few steps backwards. it is a lot harder to use than before. really really bad redesign

  9. This new floating, unhideable toolbar needs to go! Give me the old tools interface back. It is unfathomable to me that Adobe is just going to push out this interface with no choice for the customer. It might seem like a small change, but this appears to have been done with very little thought for the user.

  10. This is someone else's comment, but so apropos! "Visual designers managed to ruin a tool that was excellent and practical. The environment is now completely different, difficult to use, confusing, with no work flow. I would recommend a book to designers: Steve Krug's "Don't Make Me Think"."

    This is impossible to use.

    I chose the "user interface" category only because I couldn't select "all of the above." I also created an account for the sole purpose of posting this.

  11. 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.

  14. 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

  15. 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

  16. 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.

  17. 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.

  18. 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!!

  19. 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.
