How to Display Number of Pages in Open PDF Document? (Used to be in Status Bar)

Hi, in earlier versions of Adobe Acrobat Pro the "number of pages" in the open document was displayed in the "status bar" at bottom left of window.

In AAProDC this is MIA. Now the fastest way to get this information appears to be to click the arrow on the left of the window to open the pages pane. Not as fast as the info being displayed alongside the page dimension information.

See screenshot below.

I've looked in the options/preferences to see if one can change what is shown in the "status bar" - but I don't see this possibility. Can Is this possible?

This functionality appears to have also disappeared in Acrobat Reader

Right-click on the Quick Tools bar and hover-over/highlight "Show Page display Tools" then left-click on "Show All Page Display Tools". You should now see the familiar (ie - page X / pages) displayed on the toolbar.

Agreed the "new experience" is a step backward! Why does a "new experience" (software companies are really wearing this phrase out) more often than not make an application harder to use or, at the very least more time need to use the application.

Right click on the Toolbar, then choose Customize Quick Tools and choose "Page number"

Yes and this feature takes up valuable space in the Toolbar - which is now at a premium given the enlarged size of the icons (to try and make a single UI design work for both touch and mouse - sigh).

The old functionality of displaying current and total number of pages in status bar was better - and its odd since the size of the document pages *is* still displayed there - they just removed the current page / total number of pages - sigh. #GoingBackwards

Any other solutions?
