Dear Adobe Support,

This is to request a feature that would greatly enhance the usability and efficiency of your PDF readers. I am referring to the back and forward buttons that would allow users to navigate through the links and bookmarks within a PDF document.

As a researcher, I often read scientific papers that have thousands of links to equations, figures, tables, references, and other sections. These links are very useful for understanding the content and following the logic of the paper. However, without the back and forward buttons, it is very frustrating and time-consuming to navigate through these links. One has to manually scroll or use the page navigation toolbar to go back to the previous page or position, which often disrupts my reading flow and concentration. Sometimes, I even lose track of where I was before clicking on a link.

Even though your PDF readers have some features that can help with navigation, such as the page thumbnails panel, the bookmarks panel, and the automatic scrolling, none of these features can replace the convenience and simplicity of the back and forward buttons.

I think that adding the back and forward buttons to your PDF readers would be a valuable and appreciated improvement for millions of users, especially those who deal with academic, technical, or legal documents.

This feature is hardly available in any web browsers or other PDF viewers. It would be great if Adobe, as the leader and pioneer in PDF technology, could also implement this feature in its products.

I hope that you will recognize my request as something simple yet of radical importance and forward it to the product management team.

P.S.: If your product management intends to take my request seriously, please keep me posted. Thanks.
