  3. Get that damned AI Assistant button OFF the top of my screen! It keeps popping up right over top of the scroll bar, making it impossible to quickly advance through the first page of a document -- right when all the introductory material I want to skim past is there. Why can't this thing be removed or disabled? The last thing I need is a summary made by a bot with the intelligence of your average high-schooler. This is the most annoying software add-on since "Clippy".

  4. It is often necessary to move a number of commenting objects to a new location while needing to retain their orientation relative to each other. Currently the only way to select them is by CTRL + clicking them one by one which is tedious for a large number. Please allow selection of multiple objects by dragging the cursor to create a rectangle around them.

  5. 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.

  6. I do not want AI summaries, etc. More important, my clients do not want me to use AI. So why must I go in EVERY DAY to change my preferences to remove the Generative AI prompts? If all my other preferences are saved, why isn't that one? Please fix this bug. I need to be able to choose whether or not I use AI.

  7. All of our PDFs need to be accessible to people with disabilities. For each PDF we need to generate a report in Acrobat that proves that the document is accessible. One area that isn't working well is the reading order.

    Currently Acrobat's reading order means a computer reading order. We need a disability reading order. Acrobat's reading order is generated by the reverse of the layers panel in the source program where the document is designed. If we want to check the disability reading order we have to go to the tags panel and click on ever single line.

    Can…

  8. 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.

  9. 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…

  10. 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…

  11. 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…

  12. 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?

  13. 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.

  14. As part of my daily workflow, I spend hours reviewing technical drawings in PDF format. These documents require my full attention and careful analysis, so any interruption is extremely disruptive. Unfortunately, the constant popups from this program, insisting that I “summarize your PDF using AI,” have become a major annoyance.

    I want to make it very clear: I do not intend to use AI for my work. My company’s policy strictly forbids it, and I value maintaining compliance and confidentiality. Despite this, the software repeatedly interrupts my workflow with suggestions that are not only irrelevant but also intrusive. Each popup…

  15. 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.

  16. The Adobe PDF Embed API viewer displays a rendering error when the screen has a specific resolution; the text search bar overflows the visible area. The bug is reproducible on the online demo available at
    https://acrobatservices.adobe.com/view-sdk-demo/index.html#/view/FULL_WINDOW/Bodea%20Brochure.pdf
    in full‑window mode, by clicking the button that opens the text search on a 1920×1200 notebook screen.

  17. 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!!!

  18. 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…

  20. Acrobat Pro - Right clicking only reveals source file in Finder if acrobat doesn't detect any 'changes' .

    This action is a core part of Mac functionality - every app on the system reveals the file location by right clicking at the top of the window. Please fix.
