Yesterday, the Adobe Acrobat DC Pro icon in my Mac desktop dock and in all pdfs in Finder has changed from red to black. Was this supposed to happen?

It's a design change throughout Adobe's programs, not just Acrobat.

Poorly tested by the GUI design team; on Windows, the icon's black square melds into the default black background color of the Windows Task Bar. The Acrobat icon, especially, is nearly invisible on a high-resolution monitor.  Just what users need: an invisible user interface!

 

This screen cap shows (from left to right), the new icons for Acrobat, InDesign, and Photoshop, and the previous icon for Photoshop on the far right.

New icons for Adobe programs don't work well enough in Window's task bar.New icons for Adobe programs don't work well enough in Window's task bar.

Good example of what NOT to do to a user interface!
