  1. Change default open screen to Tools Tab Adobe DC Pro.

    I would like to be able to open Adobe DC Pro and it already be on the Tools tab instead of the Home tab.

    I think this could be accomplished by having this as setting to give users a choice.

  2. I need the editing tools that have disappeared (strikethrough, text boxes with arrows,etc). These are essential for copy editors and reviewers and they were the reason I bought this program (Acrobat Pr). It is pretty useless to me without these tools!

  4. After the most recent update a few days ago, there are 4 tabs at the top: All tools, Edit, Convert, and Sign.

    When I click on the Edit tab, the right hand menu area is blank. No edit tools are displayed.

    I have added the "Add text" feature to the floating shortcuts tool bar that came with the update. However, when I click it to add text, the left hand area is blank with none of the options to do things like select font size displayed, and I can't add these to the shortcuts bar, so most features are…

  5. Allow me to use commenting tools multiple times without having to choose them again (and again, and again). Perhaps a double click to make the tool active until a single click turns it off. At the present time the pencil tool is the only one that stays active once it is selected.

  6. Periodically, Adobe lets you know of what they think are wonderful ideas, but they do so by rebuilding my pinned tools list.....so I have to go and select MY tools AGAIN. This is the fourth for fifth time in six months and I am really getting sick of it. Who gave you the right to adjust what tool items I have pinned. You know, the ones I know I use....not the one some marketing A-Hole can only think (hope) I use. Absolutely a pain in the butt.

    Hi,

    We are unable to fix your issue due to lack of information. Do let us know in case you have some more information on the issue.

  8. The "Recommended Tools For You" section at the top of the Acrobat DC home screen may be of good use for rank beginners, but for those of us who use the program every day, for specific purposes, would be better served by the top portion of the home screen having our most frequently used tools instead. I use two tools every day, but only one is accessible in the "Recommended tools" section, and only if I have the Acrobat window widened to the width of the screen. Go ahead and populate the area with your suggestions for newbies, but…

  9. Tools that seamlessly work and are the same between all programs. Copy and paste from illustrator to indesign. Copy type style in indesign like how it works in illustrator.

  10. Action does not open from quick tools shortcut until the "Action Wizard" tool is opened. Previous versions openened the pinned action in the side panel without the need to then also open the "Action Wizard" tool. It makes a mockery of having shortcut of the action in the first place!

  11. Currently you have to scroll the tools panel to see long form field names. It would be more user friendly to be able to see the whole name.

    Need Info  ·  Vivek Chandra responded

    Hello Wayne

    You can just add the more frequently tools to the Quick Tools on top. Alternately you can just search for the tool you need in the Search box in Right Hand Panel.

    Please let us know if this helps.

  13. Requesting an option to disable drag reordering Quick Tools, maybe in the right click menu or Customize Quick Tools window. With a stylus it's way too easy to accidentally reorder Quick Tools while trying to select a tool.

  14. The left side of the Navigation Pane won't open with a click of the arrow. It used to, but something happened to the installation. I reinstalled with the latest version, but it still doesn't work correctly.

  15. Using: Acrobat Pro DC

    Request: Ability to set a global setting that hides the bookmarks panel whenever a new PDF is opened, as opposed to having to navigate to the initial view settings for each file and then save it.

    Reason: I open a lot of PDF files from emails, as I'm sure thousands of other people do, with no intention of saving it in that instance. Or files from the internet, again with no intention of saving it. This is to VIEW the file and find content relevant to the task in hand. Having the bookmarks pane

  16. Please make it possible in settings to PERMANENTLY hide page control from the document AND from the toolbar. I was able to get rid of them by selecting "hide page controls" after View, Show/Hide, Page Controls, but the controls appear again when I re-open Adobe. I know page controls can be switched from toolbar to document, and I know all the tool bars can be hidden. But I don't want to hide all the tools - I've customized the tool bar with the tools I use all the time. I just want to get rid of the…

    Hi,

    We released an update for Adobe Acrobat DC that fixes this concern.
    So there is no further need of doing any workaround.

    This update will be automatically applied to all Acrobat and Reader users in the coming days. You may also update to the latest release by opening the application and going to Help > Check for Updates.
    You can also drop an Email to me at ajain@adobe.com to let me know further in this. Thanks.

  17. Allow the toolbar to expand and minimize (hide the toolbar) to maximize the working area. As of right now there is no way to make the toolbar section smaller or to hide it. When trying to make the toolbar smaller it exits out of the tool being used for the PDF and it will only work if the toolbar stays open. It would be beneficial to have more workspace than to have 1/4 of the screen taken up by the tool bar.

  20. Having the ability to zoom in and out of the document within the preview pane is very helpful. It increases productivity as I am able to see a specific detail of the document quickly without having to open the document.

    In conjunction with another posted suggestion the ability to rename the file goes hand in hand for viewing the document vs having to open the file, close it, then rename it.

    This feature is available in various other programs and I'm very surprised to find that Adobe has not engineered this feature as well.

    Thank you for your consideration.
