  1. This layout is nice to use, but can we get a dark mode version of it? The old Adobe Acrobat viewer defaulted to a dark screen, and this white background is jarring to my eyes.

  2. Please allow me to remove Adobe Acrobat from my Chrome browser. I adjusted my chrome settings to "Download PDFs" instead of "Open PDFs in Chrome" but they still open in Chrome. I have a paid version of Acrobat for my business and should not be forced to use the Chrome version as it is annoying and adds extra steps that I don't want to my workflow.

  3. Whatever has been done to this has made it so much worse. PDFs used to open immediately and I was able to search and find what I needed in a PDF straight away. Now, when I open a PDF it loads like I'm on dial up, and when I search it may give initially give me a result saying "1 of 2" or something like that when I know for a fact there are at least 20 mentions of what I'm searching in the PDF.

    Just take it back to the previous version of Acrobat in Chrome, there wasn't anything…

  4. Yes could you please Disable the welcome to Acrobat side bar? it takes too long to load, and the document won't load until the side bar has loaded. then it errors out and we goes to a classic adobe viewer.

  5. The new Adobe Acrobat plugin in Chrome now modifies the URL to add "chrome-extension://????" before the URL in the URL bar which makes saving and sharing URL's much more complicated and greatly reduces the efficiency and usefulness of the plugin. Surely there must be a way to turn this off and go back to the old plug in functionality. This is extremely frustrating and makes the sharing of URL's for Adobe Acrobat plug in users more complicated and surely less efficient. I am a business user and this change reduces my work productivity.. something which should not happen in an…

  8. Tool bar on right is open by default. Takes up so much room, the document is too small to read. 99% of the time you just want to read the document and then 50% of the time you might save it. That's all. Make the toolbar a pop-out that is closed by default.

  9. As soon as I open the document in the plugin, the URL is changed and when I share it people don't have access to it.

  10. Loading PDFs in the browser takes forever. And even if the first pages are loaded I get a message wait until everything is display which is confusing and frustrating. Probably better to display a percentage loading sign instead of showing first page and others still need to load. Working with annual reports with ~150 pages right now.

  11. Redo the download procedure. Currently I have to download twice to actual save the file. Then I have NO control over where the file downloads, or what the file name is. Real users, not the John Q Consumer this was designed for need download and store PDFs in mass. It is impossible to with the current program.

  12. The zoom capability sucks! I cannot easily change the zoom level on my touchscreen, and there is no zoom percentage field for me to enter a level. This used to be a normal feature of Adobe Reader; please bring it back.

  13. chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://repository.ifla.org/bitstream/123456789/988/2/ifla-publication-series-147.pdf

    Inserting the Chrome extension at the start of the URL is really annoying. Why do you need to do that? I often want to copy and paste the URL to send the link to someone else, but I have to select just the bit that is the URL. I am close to disabling the extension as a result.

  14. It would be good if you can set it to always open in desktop app on every document instead of having to select it every time.

  16. When downloading, there is no option to change the download folder, or to be prompted to accept a download location. This means for every download, I have to go to my downloads folder, cut and paste the document where I want it to go, and take the time to rename it. Doing this many times a day gets very annoying.

  17. How the **** do I disable PDF files opening in Chrome, this is totally useless feature for me, and UI in Chrome is awful as **** ? I've tried to disable this feature both in Chrome and Adobe but the PDF files still keeps opening in the browser, which is infuriating. If there was any other reliable PDF viewer I would immediately uninstall Adobe because of this new update. Stop doing random updates and start asking from users what they actual need or want you twats.

  19. Give us the option on whether or not to connect our desktop app to the cloud! I don't know what I accidentally click on, but ever since I did my Adobe has been super, sluggishly overly redundantly sloth-like SLOW! I've been looking for the option to turn off app connectivity to the cloud and I cannot find it. It's definitely not in settngs!
