Troubled by New Adobe Acrobat Update

[PaulNotPaulo]

Hello, I am writing to comment on the newest version of Adobe Acrobat, version 23.8.20470.0.  Initially I loved this version, as I was able to quickly access the page view and other tools.  But then. . . 

I have a very specific set of tools I want available on the tool bar.  Scroll view, number of pages, etc.  I have more work to do than time I have to do it in (like all of us).  When I open Adobe, I want to start working immediately.  The never version, while easy to use in some respects, is more difficult for me to use.  When I first loaded the updated version, I spent 10 minutes looking for tools that I need (scroll view, number of pages, etc.).  When I could not find it, I went back to the older Adobe Acrobat view.  Voila!  I was able to immediately start working.

While I appreciate the short, 3 or 4 tips that was provided upon first use, on a major upgrade like this version, I need more orientation.  And more warning.  YouTube videos about how to transition would be great.  I find it very difficult to use a new tool when there are new, unspoken rules about how to use it.

Thank you!  Paul Clark

You must revert to the Classic UI: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/acrobat-2023-how-to-revert-to-classic-gui-user-in...
Consider the "new Acrobat" as a beta version, many features are still missing or half-implemented.

I hate the update to Adobe sign ("request e-signatures"). It's not user-friendly at all, or intuitive like the previous version. It should be fast and simple, but it now takes much longer to specify elements for recipients to sign.
