Hello~

In Adobe Acrobat Pro version 2023.008.20533, how do I get it to open pdf files in separate windows instead tabs?

Thank you!

Hi @defaultust8phv2yiv9 

 

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.

 

This is the design behavior of the application. You can hold the tab with the mouse and drag it out to open in new window.

 

This issue is reported to our engineering team and is being worked on. The fix will be available in the future updates.

 

Thanks for your time and patience.

@Amal., thanks for acknowleding that Adobe Acrobat 2023 ("New Acrobat") needs the option to open each document in a new window. This should be possible without disabling New Acrobat; the option should simply be reinstated.

The new interface is there since a while, but it is work in progress. If it does not fit your needs, you should switch to the classic interface. Or you will need to tear off the tabs. I do that. It's not a major issue for me. But I can understand that some want this feature to be present as before.
