1. BUG: Acrobat won't save e-sign signature

   No matter how many times I attempt to save an image to the e-sign, Acrobat will not retain the signature. Every time that I open Acrobat, I need to go through the same process of adding an image to use as signature.
   Windows Version 2026.001.21346

4. Too many popups

   Please. You guys gotta stop with the popups. Adobe used to be pro tools, and now every time I have to open Acrobat there are 3 different popups or blinking things saying to try something A.I. or try a useless new tool. Please.

5. Bookmark Panel

   Please, please allow a feature to DISABLE the bookmarks panel. It is completely useless in most cases but always opens on every new document. I open a lot of new PDFs every day, and EVERY SINGLE ONE pops up with a bookmark panel that is useless and takes up half of the viewing pane, which I then have to close. Truly, it is enough for me to stop using this program and find any other option, even if it has fewer features. This feedback does not seem uncommon when I spent a lot of time searching around for a solution.

   Just put an option in the preferences to disable the bookmarks panel, please.

6. Window is not draggable due to UI

   There is no blank space to drag the adobe acrobat window anymore. I would wager less than 1/10,000 people have ever deliberately chosen the "create pdf" option. Get that out of the way so that the window can be moved again. It's such basic functionality that the mind boggles it still hasn't been addressed.

7. The forced New Acrobat experience removed essential functionality and caused major workflow disruption.

   Critical workflow regression: Missing modification asterisk, broken autosave indicators, and forced UI changes in new Acrobat
   This report describes multiple regressions introduced by the forced New Acrobat experience that significantly disrupted my workflow and removed essential functionality.
   Description:
   I want to report several issues caused by the forced rollout of the new Acrobat experience. These changes significantly disrupted my workflow and required extensive troubleshooting to restore basic functionality.
   1. Removal of the modification asterisk
   The classic asterisk indicator (showing when a PDF has unsaved changes) no longer appears, even in Classic mode. This is a critical regression. Without it, there is no clear visual confirmation that edits have been registered. The new UI’s Favorites star icon looks similar and adds confusion.
   2. Autosave and recovery behavior is undocumented and inconsistent
   Acrobat no longer uses the traditional AutoSave folder under the user profile. The folder exists but remains empty, even when autosave and recovery are active. Recovery now appears to rely on session metadata rather than autosave files, but this is not documented anywhere. This made troubleshooting extremely difficult.
   3. Forced UI transitions removed essential tools
   Switching between the new and classic interfaces caused annotation and drawing tools to disappear temporarily. The new interface also opened documents in modes that allowed editing but did not mark the file as modified.
   4. No warnings when autosave or modification tracking is inactive
   When Acrobat cannot write to its autosave location, there is no alert or error message. This leads to silent failures that put documents at risk.
   5. Windows user-folder naming confusion worsened the problem
   Windows displays a friendly user name (“Barbara Johnston”) that does not match the actual user folder (“cello”). Acrobat’s error messages did not clarify this, making it extremely difficult to diagnose why autosave was not functioning.
   Impact:
   These issues caused days of lost time and significant frustration. Acrobat is a critical tool for my work, and reliability is essential. The lack of documentation, silent failures, and removal of long standing indicators made the transition unnecessarily difficult.
   Requested improvements:
   • Restore the modification asterisk in Classic mode
   • Provide clear warnings when autosave or recovery cannot run
   • Automatically create required folders (AutoSave, Temp, etc.)
   • Improve transparency around editing modes and document state
   • Avoid forced UI rollouts that remove essential tools
   • Provide documentation for the new autosave/recovery architecture
   Thank you for considering this feedback. I hope it helps improve the experience for other users.

8. BUG: "View" context menu missing from Outlook portfolios

   Steps to reproduce the issue: Create portfolio from multiple email messages in Outlook and attempt to change column headers and set a split view.

   Environment: Acrobat Pro 2024/Classic, Windows 11, Outlook 365.

   Expected result: In the previous version of Acrobat (2020 Pro, perpetual licence) I could open an email portfolio file and make minor changes, primarily to 1) set a horizontal/vertical window split view and 2) add a “To” column the default From/Subject/Date/Attachments/Size columns.

   Observed result: When right-clicking on a column heading the previously existing right-click "View" context/submenu is missing. See attached screenshots. The functionality is still there because I'm able to sort the emails by "To", but adding columns or setting a split view isn't possible.

   Steps to reproduce the issue: Create portfolio from multiple email messages in Outlook and attempt to change column headers and set a split view.

   Environment: Acrobat Pro 2024/Classic, Windows 11, Outlook 365.

9. BUG: Can't append further emails to Outlook portfolio pdf

   Steps to reproduce: In Outlook, right-click on selected emails and choose "Append to Adobe PDF" to add further emails to an existing portfolio.

   Environment: Acrobat Pro 2024 / Classic, Windows 11, Outlook 365.

   Expected result: Additional emails are appended to an existing portfolio created using the Outlook PDFMaker add-in.

   Observed result: The append process begins but is stalled by the error message "PDFMaker cannot append to the selected Adobe PDF archive because it was not created by Outlook PDFMaker". The process is then cancelled.

   Additional information: As shown, I used Outlook's PDFMaker add-in to create the portfolio, and attempted to append emails to that portfolio from the same folder. Screenshots are attached of the process. One of the screenshots is of the document properties of the portfolio PDF I created for this report. The "Application" field in the "Description" tab of the document properties is blank. I believe this is what's causing the error. The same error was also present in Acrobat Pro 2020 (perpetual licence).

   Steps to reproduce: In Outlook, right-click on selected emails and choose "Append to Adobe PDF" to add further emails to an existing portfolio.

   Environment: Acrobat Pro 2024 / Classic, Windows 11, Outlook 365.

10. Why does it take THREE times to reduce PDF file size in Acrobat Pro for Mac?

    I have very simple PDF receipts that are usually between 500-600KB. Clicking on Optimize PDF, then Reduce File Size should simply reduce the file size. But this usually needs to be done THREE times. I'm not changing the name or location. Why must I pay $239.88 for an app that can't do something that should be easily done?

11. Get rid of prompts to use Generative AI

    I am annoyed and distracted by the constant prompts to use Adobe's Generative AI feature. I do not want this feature. I have disabled the feature. But I still see a brightly colored button advertising it every time I open Adobe. What is worse, when I try to do a simple search, I get another prompt encouraging me to use Generative AI. I already pay $20/month for Acrobat. I should not have view ads on software I am paying for. But Adobe repeatedly forces me to view what is essentially an ad for an feature I do not want. It's distracting and interferes with my work. There should be an option for users to disable AI, after which we can simply use the software to read documents and get our work done without any pop-ups or notifications.

12. No Caption tags are created in the tag structure

    If I have a Word document with table/figure captions and use Microsoft Word 365 to create a PDF (save as pdf), Caption tags are created in the tag structure.
    However, if I use Adobe Acrobat Pro (Adobe PDFMaker 25/Adobe PDF Library 25.1.5) to create a PDF, Paragraph tags are created in the tag structure instead.

13. PDF Spaces doesn't always recognise new files added

    When using PDF Spaces and AI Assistant, the AI Assistant doesn't always recognise files that have been added later in the process. So, for example, if you are completing a research paper and some new evidence has come to light, you add that new evidence, and use AI Assistant to search all papers, there have been times where it will not reference that new paper. This risks leading to gaps in research for people who may be working with files closer to the 100 file limit.

14. No Citations with AI Assistant in PDF Spaces

    The AI Assistant does not provide citations when using PDF Spaces in the desktop version. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both copies of the program, logged out, logged back in, cleared the cache, cleared the history, turned the citations off and on again, NOTHING fixes it. There is a bug. This is happening both on my Mac and PC.

    This does not seem to be affecting single files, nor PDF Spaces in the web version, but the desktop version, my preferred version, will not provide citations. It does provide the summary though, but I would prefer the citations.

15. Feature Request: Direct File Transfer via QR Code (No Cloud Required)

    Currently, many users rely on inefficient workarounds to transfer files between devices, such as sending documents to themselves via WhatsApp Web or email.

    It would be highly beneficial to introduce a feature that allows direct file transfer between devices without relying on cloud services.

    Proposed solution:
    When opening a file (e.g., a PDF) in an Adobe application, the system could generate a unique, temporary QR code. By scanning this code with a mobile device, the file would be downloaded directly onto the phone, using a local or peer-to-peer connection.

    Actualmente, muchos usuarios recurrimos a soluciones poco eficientes para transferir archivos entre dispositivos, como enviarnos documentos a través de WhatsApp Web o correo electrónico.

    Sería muy útil incorporar una funcionalidad que permita transferir archivos directamente entre dispositivos sin necesidad de utilizar servicios en la nube.

    Propuesta concreta:
    Al abrir un archivo (por ejemplo, un PDF) en una aplicación de Adobe, el sistema podría generar un código QR único y temporal. Al escanear este código desde un teléfono móvil, el archivo se descargaría directamente en el dispositivo, estableciendo una conexión local o punto a punto.

18. Bug: Link Tag structure reversal on export

    Bug/issue: Tagged Link structure reversed when exporting from InDesign 2026 to PDF - Windows.

    We have a hyperlinked grouped object in InDesign 2026, when exporting this to PDF the Tag structure makes the <Link> tag the child of the parent <Figure> (which is incorrect), whereas when the same file is converted and exported from InDesign 2025, it makes the <Figure> the child of the parent <Link> (which is correct).

    This is causing an accessibility failure, and we have 300 to manually correct in our PDF document which is time consuming, and we don't want to convert the file should anything shift or change the artwork or functionality in anyway.
