  1. Basically the old Adobe Acrobat Reader UI was significantly better and it continues to get worse. I often hop from PC to PC and every time I need to reinstall Reader I have to go and hunt down the settings to change everything back. It's taxing. Obnoxious. Here are the most important key changes that I have to make every time:

    1. The toolbar used to be docked at the top of the screen with tools like select, highlight, page navigation (back, forward, page up, page down), zoom, etc. Now it is a floating pane. I need it docked at the…

  2. AI should be OPT-IN only. All software should have "features" disabled by default with the option to activate this garbage.

  4. Actually make disabling the AI assistant, disable the AI assistant. I have the AI assistant disable in the settings, but I still get pop-ups asking to summarize the documents I am trying to read. These pop-ups both block the material I am trying to read and reduces the usability of the basic program, like scrolling. Also that little chat bar at the bottom should not exist when the assistant is disabled. Please for the love of God fix this. Not everything needs AI help. If I want AI help, I'll use Chat GPT

  5. How about a button that totally disables and removes all the AIBS buttons and suggestions and **** ? Would consider it almost on par with removing the old Word paperclip assistant..

  6. Ever since the AI features were added to Acrobat Pro, the program is super laggy and crashes more frequently. I've "disabled" AI, but we all know that doesn't actually disable anything. I can't tell you how many time the program has crashed or not loaded my document quickly because it is visibily trying to get the AI pop-ups to load first. The fact that the popup always say "Save time with a document using AI Assistant" just adds insult to injury.

  7. Allow us to turn off AI, it is intrusive and crashing constantly.
    I am currently looking for other options to work pdf's with as this is becoming painful to use.

  8. Get rid of the bloody infuriating AI nonsense. AI is *, it's as * as it's possible to be, and it gets in the way. Just delete it completely, nobody wants it and if they did, they'd be incredibly stupid as it's always wrong.

  9. 20+ year Acrobat user, in your latest Acrobat Pro releases I'm inundated with AI prompts, windows, task bars, etc. NO I don't want a regenerative AI request in my document, NO I don't want a document summary, NO I don't want anything else AI related in a simple PDF. This is wasting so much time. Despite disabling AI features, they literally come back after every open.

  10. There will be no time ever in which I will open a document in Acrobat Pro and want an AI summary rather than reading it. The entire point of opening is to read it, not your guess of what it says. I do not want this feature, I do not want it popping up and offering me ****** AI "tools" I don't need it and it slows me down to actually have to click past it to get my work done.

    Please disable all this AI slop by default.

  11. Get rid of the AI. It is disruptive, covers half the screen, and is difficult to get rid of. I keep turning it off under preferences and it keeps getting turned back on by the time I open the next document! (I recheck my preferences and it has been turned back on.) GET RID OF IT!!!!!!! Or allow it to be permanently disabled.

  12. I need to remove a lot of sensitive informations before I can hand off a pdf to an AI tool or agent. Things like names, emails, adress or contact informations, prices, dates, urls, health data and so on. I would love to have a local AI-tool in Acrobat Desktop/Mobile to investigate one or more PDF files, telling me what kind of sensitive information was found and then giving me options to redact these data. Basically like the remove tool in Photoshop which shows different categories of things it detected in an image and then I can select what I want…

  13. My acrobat documents are getting hover tips that give an image description and say it's AI generated content. It sounds like it's saying that the image is generated by AI when it is not. It is not fair to say my creative work is generated by AI and to convince my clients of that!!!

  14. When using a certificate through either the Digitally Sign or Certify (Visible Signature) options, multiple errors occur that prevent the signature from being successfully applied, even after completing the signing process. In some instances, the signature appears to process and load but then disappears as if it was never applied. Other times, error messages are displayed saying that the document is open by another user (when it is not), the byte range is invalid, or there is an error displaying the signature. In some cases where an error says the signature cannot be displayed, closing and reopening the PDF may…

  17. When using Acrobat two lines stacked closely together look blurry. We recognize this is a resolution issue, we'd like the ability to up the document resolution so we can avoid this blurriness.

    Thank you!

  18. I said "No" I don't want Acrobat to be my default app for PDF files. Acrobat DC asks me again every time I start the program. That is intrusive and abusive, there is already a button on the start screen for that. Let me choose not to be asked again. I know how to do it through Acrobat (it's in plain sight already) or through the operating system settings.

  19. These constant prompts to use AI have totally ruined Adobe Acrobat for me. They're disruptive. Also, my workplace uses Acrobat for sensitive work documents - we are required to maintain confidentiality - I can't risk potentially having AI trained on my documents. I'm saying goodbye to Adobe Acrobat permanently, and using Xodo moving forward instead. Xodo is not shoving AI at me daily. I'll be encouraging my whole office to switch too. See ya!
