1. Ensure interactive features of a PDF document works when being viewed through a browser

   This issue happens with keyboard-only and screen reader users.

   When exporting, saving or publishing a document as a PDF, the interactive features within that document (such as hyperlinks) don't work when the PDF is viewed in a browser (any browser). The only way an interactive PDF works as intended is when it is opened with Acrobat Reader.

   There must be an issue between the interactivity within a PDF and how browsers render that PDF document for accessibility. Can this be fixed so it doesn't matter whether a user has Acrobat or uses a browser to view a PDF and interact with it?

2. Use system default cursors!

   It is absolutely unacceptable that the Acrobat Reader changes the system cursor, and doesn't allow for some method of disabling this!
   It shows that Adobe have ZERO respect for their customers.

   I have a vision impairment. I have changed my Windows cursor to a very visible, fat, red cursor, because otherwise I lose track of where it is. But Adobe's opinion on that is "********!!!!" apparently.

   Why?

   Why do you hate your customers, Adobe?

4. Prevent Adobe Reader DC window from move/resize/zoom from pdf file InitialView definition

   Hello,

   I have usually opened few pdf files on my 3rd monitor (datasheets, manuals,etc - documentation for somethig that I work on right now), I also send inquires and initialize orders for things I need to... When I open pdf with invoices/inquires those files tends to move the Adobe Reader window to my center (primary) monitor and resize it (and change zoom) - it drives me mad.
   I did a bit research and this must happens because those files have defined so called "InitialView", so here is my petition:

   Add option that prevent window Adobe Reader DC from moving and resizing when opening pdf file that have this "annoying InitalView" set up (e.g. checkbox with name: "Ignore InitialView of pdf document")

6. Open PDFs in Read mode and full screen Thumbnail navigation

   Hi. I would like to see in future versions two new improvments:
   1) set the "read mode" as de default viewing when opening every PDF file, instead of having to press "Ctrl+H" each time (just add an option in Preferences);
   2) create a new form of navigation throughout the file, a full screen thumbnail view, with page thumbnails side by side similar to what Adobe made with "Adobe Reader Touch" (too bad you discontinued that app) with a button shortcut to access it;

   Thanks

7. Fix the commenting feature

   With the older version of Adobe reader in the commenting feature, I could highlight some text and start typing and it would automatically cross the text out and allow me to type to replace it. Now I have to manually select the function any time I want to replace text.

   Same with selecting text and deleting it.

   The update is not user friendly, and it's now taking me a lot longer to complete my proofreading jobs.

8. Provide the option of enabling a second row of Toolbars to be shown

   Sometimes after 2021, the 2nd row of toolbars were removed and seemingly replaced by QuickTools. However QuickTools, albeit it's name, is less proficient than having the second row of tools available, in sight, and ready to be clicked.

   Specifically, all I'm asking for is to bring back what was taken away just so that its inclusion can be set by the user. Personally, I'm on the side of a person who uses Adobe Acrobat Pro to edit documents and find that for the number of tools I use often, they're not as quickly accessible when having to click on a drop down menu to select from whereas previously, it was all conveniently laid out between 2 rows. I find the need to click on a drop down menu requires not just an additional step, but one that includes an additional step of precision, quickly searching, reading, and selecting. While formerly, with 2 rows, once could just grow accustomed to where the tool's placement was, quickly activate or toggle it in one click, and previous milliseconds were not spent overcoming additional steps of complication in the name of "more reading space," as some call it as I would just zoom out. or enter READING MODE instead. Seeing as how it was a previous feature that was more simply removed, I'm hoping it can be brought back and users are given the option to enable it if they're the type of user who is also interested in have 2 rows of more quickly and easily accessible toolbars. Then that way, you can still keep those who wanted to do away with it happy, while at least giving users the freedom to utilize it if they so desire.

   ---

   I've noted and voted upon the numerous other suggestions relating to either certain toolbar functions or tools within those tool bars such as the ones found:

   https://acrobat.uservoice.com/forums/926812-acrobat-reader-for-windows-and-mac/suggestions/40159621-separate-zoom-in-zoom-out-and-zoom-percentage

   And topics that suggest being able to keep certain things open, reduce their size,

   But have found that none of them are really asking specifically to bring back the function or interface that once existed before, but recognize that they hope to solve issues or suggest preferences that may possibly be also addressed by providing a second toolbar again, at least the ones who are more particular about having tools readily avialable.

9. Erroneous display in popup that reappears after moving the cursor over a file

   Environment
   Windows10 or 11 (Japanese)

   The "type" of PDF file in the popup that appears when the cursor is moved over the file in Explorer is missing the "Acroba書類" with a "t". This is very weird and needs to be fixed.

   Steps to reproduce the issue

   1. save the PDF file in Explorer or on the desktop
   2. Move the mouse pointer over the PDF file icon.
   3. A pop-up window opens and shows various information, but the "Type" item is "Acroba書類".

   Expected result
   AcrobatReader" is displayed as "Acrobat書類" as well as Acrobat Pro.

   Observed result
   On a PC with only Acrobat Reader installed, it is incorrectly displayed as "Acroba書類".

   Many users are very sensitive to typographical errors because they are DTP professionals. Some of them are so sensitive that they feel suffocated when they see a typo.
   We would very much appreciate it if you could correct them.

   Please refer below Community Board:
   https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-reader-acrobat-dc-for-mobileフォーラム/かなりどうでもいい表記上のバグなのですが-バグ報告/m-p/13636924?profile.language=ja#M13644

   Japanese:
   ファイル上にカーソルを移動した再表示されるポップアップ内の表示が誤記

   環境
   Windows10・11　日本語版

   エクスプローラー上でファイル上にカーソルを移動した際に表示されるポップアップ内のPDFファイルの「種類」の項目が「Acroba書類」とtが抜けている。すごく気持ち悪いので直してください。

   再現方法
   1.　エクスプローラー又はデスクトップにPDFファイルを保存する。
   2.　ファイルアイコン上にマウスポインタを移動する。
   3.　ポップアップが開き各種情報が表示されるが「種類」の項目が「Acroba書類」となっている。

   期待する結果
   「Acrobat書類」とAcrobat Proと同様に表示される。

   AcrobatReaderのみがインストールされたPCでは「Acroba書類」と誤った表示が行われる。

   DTPなどを生業とするユーザーが多いため誤字脱字には非常に敏感に反応します。中には誤字を見ると息苦しくなるような繊細な方もいらっしゃいます。
   是非とも修正いただきたいと思います。

11. Internal link preview

    Many PDF documents contain internal links. When clicking on these, the user is taken to another part of the document. It would be incredibly useful to me and my colleagues if there was a 'preview link' option. Perhaps this could work by hovering the mouse over the link, and the preview to the link pops up in a small temporary window, allowing you to quickly view the link, without redirecting to a different page.

    The motivation for this is as follows: In mathematical sciences, these internal links often refer to equations earlier in the document, which are being combined to create new results. It can be difficult and frustrating to constantly scroll up and down, to check a calculation, and I often lose my place. This would be the digital equivalent of having two book pages open at the same time, and would make checking calculations so much easier!

13. "highlight current bookmark" does not work any more

    When the above option is selected the hightlighting of the current bookmark should follow the reading, i.e. the hightlighted bookmark should be synchronous to the currently read text. This was the case in former Readers but does not work any more.

15. regarding meaning search

    If we don't know meaning of the word while reading in a document then there must be search by web option along with the copy tab or you can simply add Dictionary into Adobe so that it will become more user friendly and more helpful to the person who is in need to search that meaning.

17. jump to specific page in pdf document via URL (browser extensions)

    1. Brief title:
       Jump to specific page in pdf document via URL (browser extensions)

    2. Description of desired feature:
       When doing research for university, I often open many tabs at once. Sometimes books in pdf document form from my local file system. When closing google chrome and reopening on the other day, the document opens up at the first page. It would be nice if a) the document keeps its position when closing the browser and reopening, or b) via an #[pagenumber] at the end of the URI in the browser I can navigate to specific pages, especially on browser reopening - like on websites when jumping to another anchor item via this function.

    3. Why the feature is needed:
       It would save time for me as a user when I dont have to search for the last page I have been reading in the book/document.

19. Web-Search option back to browser PDF-viewer right-click menu

    I have to work with PDFs a lot and I have to deal with them via browser. For the past years I haven't had any problems with using the browser PDF-viewer, but as of recently the option to do a quick google search in a new tab when highlighting text within a document and right-clicking on it is no longer available. There is 'copy', 'print', 'rotate', 'save as' but not the 'search the web for [highlighted text]' which was so very helpful and useful for me. Please, consider making it available again since I can hardly imagine how anyone would benefit from removing this feature.

20. Permit me to configure a background color for searched-for-and-found text

    In some documents, there is by coincidence background colors that are very close to the color that Acrobat uses to enhance the visibility of searched-for text.

    In Acrobat preferences there is no way of changing this background color. For me, searched-for-and-found would be shaded a bright yellow. The default value is nice on a white background, but no use on documents that happen to have a similar (slate blue) color background.
