My Acrobat Pro must've just updated, and I am no longer able to choose to open documents in seperate windows.  This option appears to have disappeared from the preferences.  Does anyone know how this can be switched back on?  I cannot stand having to view docs in tabs within the same window.  the version is 2023.001.20143 for MAC.

It's amazing that this has been almost a year with absolutely nothing from Adobe on this!!! They sure do care about their customers!

PLEASE PLEASE ALLOW US TO OPEN DOCUMENTS IN SEPARATE WINDOWS. I'm a pro and have many screens and I want to look at multiple PDFs on different screens. I can NOT do that if they are all in one tab. PLEASE this is really ridiculous to not allow this. Thank you

It's not perfect, but I found even if they open in one window, you can drag the tab out of that window and it will then be in it's own.

Hi All,

 

Thank you for reaching out, and sorry about the trouble. 

 

The feature is still not available. However, this has been reported to the team, and they are looking into this. It will be provided in a future update. We will update you once the option is available again.

In the meantime, you can drag the tabs opened in Acrobat out of the application to open them in a new window. 

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi

Thank you, Meenakshi, for the follow-up. It is a mystery to me that a feature that was long available in earlier versions would 1) not be included in a new version and, 2) would apparently be so problematic to restore.

With Cascade, you'll need to select it each time as opposed to the documents opening in separate windows as before? Thanks.
