Confusing Layout
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".

Problem with spacers and commands showing on the the toolbar.
There is a new problem with the toolbar, whereby page controls that were previously present are now hidden. The file tools occupy the same amount of space regardless of how many commands are contained within that space. Please fix this bug. Commands like 'fit one full page to a window' are no longer visible unless you un-dock the page controls from the toolbar.
3 votesHi,

also please let me know the current version of acrobat that you are using.Thanks

Adobe PDF Print needs a PDF/UA option
We need to be able to save WCAG compliant, semantic HTML files (e.g. from Firefox) as PDF/UA, but Adobe PDF does not offer this option. Saving as PDF/A does not produce a tagged (UA) file.
Adobe's pdf print gadget should use the browser accessibility tree, and tag the PDF accordingly.
PDF/UA has been an ISO standard since 2012. WCAG 2.1 was finalized in 2019, and WCAG 2.x compliance is now mandatory for public sector procurements in North America, the EU and various other jurisdictions.
What on earth is going on with your accessibility roadmap, Adobe? Apart from Acrobat on Windows,…

Can you share the steps by which do you want to create a PDF/UA file?
Acrobat already has an option to fix tagging issues in the PDF to make it PDF/UA compliant using Tools > Preflight.Thanks

Custom Hotkeys
Custom Keyboard for hotkeys --- Why do I have to click on the check box every time I want to make one? That's so silly. Same as the text box and all the other tools. That should be built into the program.

Typewriter
Adobe, bring back the old Typewriter tool. We need a simple way to add text to an existing PDFs. The current workarounds of using the Edit Text or Add a Text Field tools are not the same and are far more cumbersome than the old Typewriter.
The problem with the "Edit Text" tool is that it attempts to edit ALL text in the PDF so often times when you try to add new text, it attempts to modify existing background text in the document.
The problem with the "Add a Text Field" tool is that you have to add, resize,…

Comment tool color picker inconsistencies
There are at least two ways of setting a highlight comment's color; one from the menu bar and the other from the highlight comment's property dialog. The problem is that they provide two different color palates. This then manifests in the comment filter showing many different colors to filter by when the intent was to use a small number to categorise the comments.

Bug: Comment list headings show wrong date (off by one day)
When the comment pane is sorted by date, the date group heading shows one day earlier than the actual date of the comments.
A comment dated "Jun 26" will show under a group heading of "6/25/2020"
A comment dated today (showing a time only, no date) will be grouped under a date heading "9/25/2021" (when the date is actually 9/26/2021).
Steps:
Create a comment (sticky note or add note to replace text)
Sort comments by date
Expected: today's comment 5:16 pm grouped under "9/26/2021"
Actual: today's comment 5:16 pm grouped under "9/25/2021"

Synched thumb nail page is not very much recognizable. So why don't you develop to show synched thumbnail page appear clearly
When user scroll up and down pages, thumb nail page in the left hand pane is not that much recognizable. I think system will be better showing thick solid line surrounded around the thumbnail page even user scroll the page without magnifying it. Hope this will make sense to you guys. It is simply dotted line surrounded, which is not recognizable.

Hover pop up tool at the bottom of the document is invasive and annoying
The popup that comes up for the user is in a most annoying position. The main reason is that it covers text that the user is in the process of reading.
There is often better grey space to put this in. It might even be better to have this at the top if you must insist on it being present. This is because people read top to bottom and often hover over the text to read and it is less likely to occur at the top of a page because the user is not likely keeping their place.
And why…

AI tool for text recognition
Ich muss oft Dokumente einscannen, die natürlich nicht den gewünschten Dateinamen haben. Jedes einzelne Dokument zu öffnen um es dann umbenennen zu können ist unheimlich Zeitaufwändig. Es wäre daher sinnvoll ein Tool zu haben, das den Text erkennt und daraus automatisch einen passenden Dateinamen generiert.

Do not view the "starred" bar
You have just introduced a new menu bar: "Home", "Tools"... etc, including the new "starred" category.
I'd actually like to read my pdfs, and the more screen area, the easier that is. Your new menu bar lessens the screen area I have to read my documents. Can you at least make this menu bar toggled, so that I and others wanting more screen space can get rid of it?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it!! This is horrible with diminished functionality
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.

Update
I recreate a new post instead commenting last one, just to make sure it was taken as important it’s supposed to be, as a critical issue! Hoping you could create another hot fix for this major problem. We are now on macOS Sonoma 14.2.1 and Acrobat Pro version 2023.008.20458.
1: when we use Text tool and select a text to modify all the page became white and we cannot see anything.
2:There is also another problem when we scroll the pages, everything become white also.
3: We are no longer even able to check the preflight result, blank pages…3 votes -
shrink the corner circles on lines and stamps
A recent update made the circles in the corners of lines drawn with the pencil tool or small stamps applied absolutely HUGE, obscuring the line/stamp itself as well as the text below it.
This makes it near impossible to properly position a line/stamp and also to see what the heck it is when you select it in the comments pane.
I work in publishing, and we need to be able to precisely place proofreading marks and be able to read them so we can see what to do with the source text file.

Keep the settings per the last session (pan vs select)
As someone who has getting older and hard to see the tools, it would be spectacular if I didn't have to toggle to the pan button every time I open a PDF. Who want to select things by default in a PDF? Or at least have a preference so the user can select the desired tools to be set. I work with large plans, and it's my preference to be able to pan by default. I don't want the select tool active as it can select lines and get inadvertently moved. All you need to do is in Customize…

Toolbar
In the new version, give us back the expandable toolbar on the rightside. Should not have to do a tool search for item. (e.g. textbox)

Where are the old mark up tools? I only what to draw some circles round things to highlight them. This new design is wasting my time.
Stop changing the workspace around so people stay familiar and can work efficiently. Professional software is supposed to support and enable efficient working.

A magnifying glass to the tool bar to enlarge a specific area of PDF would be nice.

Drawing Signature Form Box
I need a simple box that can be added into a form which activates the drawing tool to enter a manual signature. If someone is filling out a form, they won't know at the signature point they have to jump to the tool menu and select the pen. For a user they are in the form, keep them in the form. Just a simple setting on a signature box to switch it to pen rather then Digital ID would be great.

Remove or move the "Try PDF Spaces" botton to a less annoying place
You have added a button called "Try PDF spaces" exactly where the All Tools button was and forced the All Tools button to the right. Presumably this is to force clicks as folks who have memorized where the buttons they actually want to use are located and may click without looking. Get rid of it or move it to a less annoying place that doesn't disrupt workflows please. We already pay for your program - don't force us to navigate to things you want to promote. If it was actually good you wouldn't have to place it in the way…
