Questions

I’m currently using Adobe Acrobat Pro Enterprise (Version 2026) and have a few questions about the New Acrobat interface and its long‑term availability. Does Adobe plan to remove the option to enable/disable the New Acrobat interface? If so, is there any timeline for when this toggle will be removed? I’m teaching a class on Acrobat basics and want to make sure I’m preparing students correctly if the classic interface is only temporary. Quick Actions Toolbar: In the New Acrobat interface, is it possible to dock the Quick Actions toolbar at the top and customize it the way we could in the previous version? Navigation Bar Placement: Can the Navigation Bar be moved to the top in New Acrobat, or is that only possible if the new interface is disabled? Any guidance or official information would be greatly appreciated. I want to make sure I’m teaching the most future‑proof workflow.Thank you!

Hi there, I have an Adobe Acrobat subscription but today after saving a file like I have done many times. I reopened Acrobat and it is just a blank screen. as shown below. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, updated windows, uninstalled every adobe product and file with a cleaner and without but still no matter what Adobe Acrobat looks like this when opening it. Any suggestions? I use Acrobat every day. This is what i looks like every time I open it, whether from a file or from the acrobat exe 

When I move .pdf files from my email into a Windows Explorer folder they are always blocked from view until I unblock them.  This used to not be the case.  How can I fix this?

Acrobat becomes very slow when I open large PDF files (200+ pages). My computer has enough RAM and storage. Are there any settings I can change to improve the performance.I often work with documents that are more than 200 pages. When I try to view or scroll through them, Acrobat becomes slow and sometimes freezes. My system performance is fine, so I think this is related to Acrobat settings.Is there any recommended configuration (view settings, rendering, hardware acceleration, etc.) to make Acrobat run smoother with large PDF files.

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017.  I used word to create a document then made it into a PDF.  Then made it fillable form with no problem.  I filled out some information for a client, emailed it to her and she dated the document.  Once it was returned to me everything I typed and the date the client entered appears doubled. Can you help

As the question and attached pic shows, I can’t validate due to my serial number being “in use by the maximum allowed computers”, but my account shows “you have no activated devices”.How can I get Adobe Acrobat Pro “active” on my new laptop?

I’ve had an issue with Adobe Acrobat where I open a PDF and the application window doubles in size. I close the PDF, open another PDF and its even larger. Eventually after a couple opens, the acrobat application window is full screen, although not “Fullscreen” its fully maximized to where I need to grab the corner with my mouse and manually resize to a typical document window size. This is happening from a closed instance to opening a PDF. If I only close the document (tab) and leave acrobat running, its fine.This is happening on my Windows 11 Business edition (Surface Pro 11). I have since recently restored/factory reset my Surface with a fresh reinstall of Windows 11 Pro/Business. Fresh installed Adobe Acrobat and the symptom is still happening. It was happening before and after a fresh windows install. I have the latest version at 64bit 25.001.21184.I have AI searched for a solution and they didnt help resolve it. Anyone have any ideas or having the same problem?

Wondering if anyone else has run into this issue and found a fix, since Adobe support (as usual) has been absolutely worthless in helping me with this issue.  We have 12 new computers that had Acrobat installed (fresh OS and fresh Adobe installation) and ALL of the computers have entries in the Windows Event Viewer throughout the day with the following message:Product: Adobe Acrobat (64-bit) -- Error 1730.You must be an Administrator to remove this application. To remove this application, you can log on as an administrator, or contact your technical support group for assistance.There is no update available and I went as far as completely uninstalling the software on one of the computers and reinstalling it, per supports suggestion.  I even used their cleaner program to uninstall and manually removed all associated folders and registry entries.  Still happens throughout the day when the user is logged in and I’m suspecting this is causing some other issues.Also, after this the following

When I select “Edit PDF” option, the “All Tools” pane disappears.This issue seems persistent.I’ve tried looking at the view/show settings.Running a repair on the installation.Uninstalling and Reinstalling Adobe Acrobat. Can someone please help or provide some suggestions? Thank you, 

Hi Support Team,I faced with a new issue during the Tagged PDF implementation, now is with the reading order in “Read Out Aloud” option from Acrobat Reader. Overview I created a simple example layout with some fake data, and I labeled it in the correct reading order : And this works correctly, but only for the first page.The text in a yellow box are artifacts. The issueThe problem starts from the second page onwards : It starts the reading from the first line of table, ignoring the table´s header and finally goes to the first flow that should be the first reading, like the reading of the first page. StructureI´ve been tried to do some workaround and investigate some options but I didn’t find anything to fix it.Investigating with PAC, we can see the documents structure and the flowArea4 only appears in the first page :AnalisisFront of this I opened a ticket with the software vendor that I used to generate this test and they answered this :"Unfortunately, this is by design and how Adobe

I’m faced a new problem with tagged pdf, I´ll put in topics to be the clearest possible with this issue : OverviewI'm developing a layout that requires the use of accessibility tags and there are a lot of currency values to be read.The idea is that this value will be read by the "Text Aloud" feature in Acrobat Reader (free) or any kind of pdf reader with this functionality.In the example attached to this ticket, I've included an image with a monetary value.To illustrate, I created a simple test layout and added an image using the "Role\Figure" tag and the "Alternate text" feature with the plain text "one hundred sixty-two thousand seven hundred fifty-seven dollars and thirty-three cents". The result As a result, the text is expected to be read in its entirety as written, however, what happens is that the audio reading simply ignores some words; in this example, the words "hundred" and "seven" are ignored. Like a workarround I disable the “New Acrobat” option, this way works fine.Is the

How do I stop Acrobat from displaying these annoying and instrusive banners whenever I open Acrobat on my Mac?I feel like I'm running crappy adware…

Hello - I am trying to add Prepare for Accessibility to the All Tools menu so I don’t have to keep searching for it or going to the All Tools menu when I’m in Document View. I know I can add individual tools to the Quick Toolbar, but I like having the Prepare option in my All Tools. I used to be able to go to All Tools and ADD was an option. It is not there now. When I click View More at the bottom of All Tools, Prepare for Accessibility isn’t there.I’m using Continuous Version: 2026.001.21662 64 Bit

For myself (and it appears many others) this is the worst feature Adobe Acrobat (maybe Adobe period) currently has. Trying to edit a PDF is a nightmare with this idiotic scan. It repeatedly scans, over and over (once isn't enough?) it takes forever, and oddly it tilts random images off center.What is the purpose of this? To frustrate users into using another PDF editor? I could understand if it was a work in progress, but you can't even turn the damn thing off. I've tried all the "steps" recommended and nothing. Yes, I have the latest version. Threads like this appear through-out Adobe support. It's currently a garbage feature - allow me to turn it off until it's useful. Until then, I'm using another editor. 

I have been noticing this issue over the past few days and I’m not sure what is causing it.We have a networked Canon ImageRunner printer that I print PDFs to. Lately, when I click the page setup button to select the correct paper size and orientation, Acrobat has been “hiding” -- basically it moves to the background and forces the desktop as my active app. I have to alt-tab back to Acrobat, where the page setup dialog box is open and waiting for me.I would expect it to just open the page setup box and NOT move to the background.I did just realize today that, if I do anything else first, such as click the Properties button next to the printer name drop-down, then cancel out of that and then click the page setup button, it behaves normally. But, if I click the page setup button first, before anything else, this odd behavior happens.Just started noticing it this week. Nothing has changed with our printers or network setups or anything.Anyone else having this issue? [Edited typo]

We are programmatically launching Adobe Acrobat Pro on macOS.On some Mac machines, launching Acrobat also triggers an additional process called “Acrobat Helper.” To stop this behavior, we disabled Sandbox / Protected Mode Disabled in Acrobat preferences, which resolved the Acrobat Helper launching issue. (As guided by Adobe Team)However, this change introduces a new problem:When Protected Mode Preference is enabled, macOS shows the “Grant Access” permission alert, but the Acrobat Helper issue is resolved.When Protected Mode Preference is disabled, macOS does not show the “Grant Access” alert, but the Acrobat Helper issue reappears 

This quest is regarding the TIMESHEET function in workfront.Is it possible to hide the task name under the project name in the timesheet weekly dashboard? We are logging hours only at the project level, and the additional task name is causing confusion. Please suggest. Regards,Diksha G.

Attached is a simple calculator with a formula for savings and product volume.I would like to know how to use javascript to calculate off the text box input and off variables in the background as seen in the sheet. Ideally in the PDF- it would be spend text box 1 (b3), volume text box 2 (b5) and then the final result text box (b11-13). Just would like some guidance based off the excel formula and thanks!

Hallo zusammen,mein Acrobat stürzt sofort ab und ich kann keine PDF-Dateien öffnen. Stürzt auch sofort ab. Ich habe es heute 8 Stunden mit dem Support versucht, aber die machen nichts. Sie loggen sich per Adobe Remote Support auf meinen Computer und lassen mich stundenlang warten und melden sich dann nicht mehr. Ich habe es ca. 10 Mal mit AdobeAcroCleaner_DC2021 deinstalliert und wieder installiert. Nichts hilft. Vielleicht hat jemand von euch eine Idee? 

Hi Everyone, when opening a cloud document in the desktop app to edit the document, shared comments won't load. I've attached a screenshot. We've already tried:Upgrades from Windows 10 > Windows 11, driver updates, and the following suggestion found on the forum:In Acrobat, Click Edit > Preferences > General > Uncheck 'Show online storage when opening the file' > click OKClose and reopen AcrobatAcrobat has been reinstalled multiple times and is currently on the version 25.001.20577 but there have been updates since the issue began that have not fixed the issue.'Uninstalling using Revo Uninstaller to remove remaining files and reg keys and reinstalling. Windows is running version 24H2 Build 26100 Any other suggestions? We have this happening to 2 users. One it is a new issue within the last day, and the other has had the issue going on 3 months.

For 5+ years, Acrobat on macOS has had a bug that overwrites the original “created” date on certain PDFs (mostly, dynamic XML-basd PDFs) whenever it is saved. This  breaks cloud document management systems, corrupts metadata, and causes real data loss.Support tickets have gone nowhere; they get closed within 24 hours with zero response or insight.Anybody got a fix? Adobe opened Bug ID: ADC-4317807 5 years ago, but obviously, there is no transparency to what is going on.

The signature function stopped working and i get a blocked option. I cannot close by clicking the x.I have a paid version of Acrobat, I erased the program and reinstalled it.

I would like to add comments on a PDF for team use and proofing. When the PDF is final, I would like the option to delete all comments on all pages and save as a final version for client, without the client seeing any of the comments.
