Feedback on Software Design : Better Saving Workflow!

Good Morning,

 

I work with Adobe Acrobat daily, have been for 10+ years. I am very familiar with your product. 

I find it so odd that when I click save, I have to navigate to the folder and choose the file and overwrite the original as if I am 'Saving As...'.

There are times that I save the file and I am not asked to overwrite the file, and when that happens I know it has been far too easy, and I've done something wrong.

 

I have a revolutionary idea you should esculate directly to the software design team:

When the user clicks 'Save', save the file like every other program on Windows does, Adobe knows the file name and the origin of the file... You should use the current 'Save' function as the 'Save As...' function.

 

Revolutionary stuff I know!

The way things work now just wastes time.

 

Cheers

Josh

I don't have this behavior happening. Can you tell us more details so perhaps someone can reproduce the issue and maybe find a solution?

Thanks,

Dave
