HIDE THE 'All tools' PANE!
With the latest version of Adobe Acrobat the setting that previously worked to disable the Tools Pane on startup no longer works. This was obviously not added to regression testing procedures. I could not even take a screenshot of the Adobe Acrobat Reader version AS IT DISAPPEARS THE MOMENT I SELECT THE Microsoft Snipping tool!!! So ... via my smartphone camera, it's Continuous Release | Version 2023.003.20284 | 64-bit. I am using Windows 10 with latest updates.

make features like "reader view" opt in instead of opt out. it interferes with visualizing pdf documents and materials as designed
Change new tools to OPT in instead of OPT out with no clear mechanism. new versions of Acrobat are harder to navigate, harder to comment on and familiar features seem to have been shrouded or eliminated. keeping pdfs in the layout they came in is a bonus, not a liability. perhaps have a reader mode button, but otherwise let us look at the documents in total, even on tablets and phones. Feels like we lost many tools in the latest build and I have trouble finding ways to get around the loss adding way too many obstacles.

Cant edit a button without adding a new button 1st
In Acrobat, I can't edit an existing button (i.e click on it, right click to get options, etc) without 1st going into the button tool, and placing a new button to get the button selection tool. After that I can edit the existing button then delete the new button. There should be a button selection tool or something similar.

make this simple to use. Every time you update it takes weeks to adjust
STOP updating this. The people doing the updates have no idea how this is used product is used. Every update is a massive learning, takes weeks to figure simple stuff

Adobe Updater should ask before installing updates
I have turned Acrobat Auto Update off because I just ran into the third time where my PC ran out of memory and crashed because the Update process started while I was in the middle of working with several other applications, including Acrobat. I would be fine if the updater provided an indication that updates are available, and the ability to choose the update time, but I hate losing work because a program chooses to start an automatic update in the middle of other more important work.

Allow insertion of multiple blank pages
Allow users to add multiple blank pages at a time to an existing PDF, or allow them to create a new PDF with a specified number (greater than 1) of pages.

DOCX export with comments that MS Word recognises
The export to DOCX with comments generates a DOCX file that when viewed in MS Word has highlighted text and overlaid text boxes with the comment text for all of the PDF comments, but they are not recognised by Word as comments and as such do not integrate with its comment tool features.
Please export the PDF comments in a DOCX format that MS Word recognises as comments. Thank-you.

Standard dialog of the operating system for saving files
I want to use the standard dialog of the operating system to save files as the default, not a solution from Adobe. This only costs time and is a bad UX experience.

Sending e-mail with Outlook or other standard e-mail programme
Why is there no longer a direct way to send documents immediately with Outlook? This is a very bad UX experience. Not everyone wants or is allowed to use Adobe to send e-mails. This is not user-friendly.

Comments as Components, not a Printing Extra -- Layout, Flow, Consistency
The comments feel like they were added on to the program as a "nice to have" and weren't truly integrated into the layout and design considerations of Acrobat. For example, shouldn't they be treated as another "layer"? Having the comments panel on the right hand side makes it feel like there is a whole separate system that is handling the comments as an after thought and this shows in the way they are then handled downstream.
Printing comments is a nightmare, whether they display our not is a nightmare, when the reply box will cut off a lengthy comment is unknowable and printing such a comment is a nightmare. These really need to be just treated more like a special feature layer where you can picture intentionally which ones to show with a pushpin to hold that one open (or better an actual property and dialogue box with options).
It would be great to know for sure with intentionality:
* Visibility on Screen: Open, Closed, Hover * Visibility on Print: Sidebar, Over Text, Locked Position, Summary Only * Appears in Summary?For Business Users may some extra options like:
* Priority
* Mandatory?
* Seen byFinally along with treating the comments as their own independent layer, they then must not be only an add-on in the print dialogues where I can't actually see how they will look when I ask for a Comment Summary. This should be a page that I can interact with and hopefully customize. This should be a feature that you have to "preview" or "refresh" to generate to save it from being too frustrating as it slows the program down trying to update the summary page as I'm typing new comments. Too many comments and corporate oriented features are too intrusive and demand resources that in all honesty very few people actually use. Don't make "Clippy" or "Copilot" or "Contextual Menu Bar" which are all super pushy and intrusive. Make a button at the end of the comment bar menu that says "Preview Comment Summary Document" and let me save that or have those extra pages be literally added to my document and refreshed on a click.
Ideally this feature would work very similarly to how an "index" or a "table of contents" or programmatic image linking and captioning from a CSV file work already in InDesign.
Thank you...
PhilP.s. This comment layer feature should also allow for not modifying highlighting and commenting on a PDF/A and other archive type formats that we can't touch the underlying original document but may need to redact portions or highlight and circle things for context and wayfinding. I have had to deal with redacting bank statements for a court filing to remove the account numbers and such and it was a whole hoopla.

Bug: Create/Combine/Add files/Save As windows is blank, won't save
Bug: Create/Combine/Add files/Save As windows is blank, won't save. A blank popup window appears. If I click past it, I can enter a filename, and the popup goes away, but no file is created. I tried uninstalling (even though my updates were current) and reinstalling, but I get the same result.

FIX THIS PROBLEM (ADOBE SIGN)
This ux is super complicated to use. Referring to adobe sign. When creating a template, you cannot create from an existing signed agreement or copy old templates. Another HUGE issue is that once you have added a second or third participant it can never be removed from the template. I added it on accident and just now can never go back to the old way i had it

New version - can't find anything useful
This new version of adobe reader is not useful at all. I have just wasted a half hour trying to find the "Find" tool. I want the old version back - I wasn't even offered an option to keep it even without support. When things are not broke, don't trying fixing them.

Your pathetic, hateful scroll bar ruins the product. It's like you're actively trying to cripple your users.

Changed Screen Format
Your Adobe Acrobat Reader software update to a new screen format SUCKS! This involuntary change is NOT WELCOMED!!! This change is to make using your software more efficient for users I assume. Well, the exact opposite is happening for me. I'm looking around for the old tool setting icons I had a the top of my screen in the previous version for quick & easy access to them and I cannot find them because to deleted some of them. So, now I do not have the tools I need to efficiently use this program. Great Job, NOT! :(

PDF Reader Which Allows Editing
There are many many posts regarding the fact that Adobe Acrobat is not an editing application. Attempting to do so results in broken lines and text blocks, crazy word spacing, etc.
There is a need for such an editing application; oftentimes publishers are handed PDFs that they then have to manipulate to fit their needs, be it changing trim size, editing text, or reformatting for audio publishing. So it would be wonderful if Adobe came up with an application that can be used to edit existing PDFs, with generic word-processing features such as styles, layout options, spell check, and review.1 vote -
YouTube Premium not Working
First, when YouTube Premium isn't playing in the background, confirm that the account is active by viewing the subscription status. Turn on Background Play in YouTube's settings to address the problem of videos ending when a user switches apps. Occasionally, clearing and re-entering the YouTube account might resolve the issue.
