Hi, I have Adobe Acrobat Pro DC (version 2017.009.20044) and, since yesterday, the scrolling with my touchpad goes way too faster than I can control. I'm a researcher and reading PDFs is a basic part of my job, and it is very uncomfortable not being able to scroll properly. I'm using windows 10, by the way.
Hi, i found a solution for this problem. check this out:
https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/3lhmhq/win10_elan_touchpad_scrolling_issues/
After I uninstall Logitech option+, this issue disappeared.
Thank you!! I had tried to customize point and scroll, but thought it was locked in global only. Your instructions made me take a second look, and low & behold... SUCCESS! Put speed at 0, smooth scrolling OFF, smartshift off. Works perfectly!

To be more specfic: Turning off smooth scrolling for Acrobat in Logi Options fixed the "way too fast" scrolling problem. I also turned on "ratchet" mode for Acrobat for a little more control.

Just checking to make sure your Logi Options apps are enabled within
System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy
There are several apps that use Logi Options. It's possible that one isn't yet enabled, which might prevent it from working properly.
I've attached a few screencaps showing their enabled state. This is Big Sur in dark mode, so yours may look different.

it is indeed enable in all categories but in Automation Logi Options doesn't show up in my case. Still not working for me... Any help is greatly appreciated

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to manually add an app to the Automation tab. You may have to uninstall, restart, and reinstall Logi Options. Hopefully that will re-trigger the permission dialog that enables it to control Automation.
I did find this article - it's for Mojave, but still fairly relevant. https://eclecticlight.co/2018/09/28/what-to-do-when-you-cant-get-an-app-the-right-privacy-settings-i...

This seems to be an incompatibility problem between Acrobat Reader and software that modifies the behavior of the mouse. Try to disable this software (from Logitech etc) specifically for Acrobat Reader.
As an example, my details were: Mac, Mos (Caldis). Mos is set to smooth scrolling. It receives a mouse wheel action and transforms it into a series of smaller mouse wheel actions, spaced in time. The result is smooth scrolling in any application... almost. But not in Acrobat Reader. Acrobat Reader seems to interpret each of those smaller wheel actions, as standard sized actions. The result is just too much scrolling. In Mos (in this example), add Acrobat Reader as an exception to which smooth scrolling should NOT be applied. Acrobat Reader then behaves well.

This is a neat idea but as far as I can tell, the solution is talking about a different software program that is not Logitech. Mos (Caldis) is a different smooth scrolling program that seems to have different customizable settings, compared to Logitech hardware and the accompanying software.

This is not a correct answer. This is just silly. Uninstalling the device software defeats the purpose of using a Logitech mouse in the first place. The problem is that Adobe does not work with Logitech software/hardware, even though the software works everywhere else on the computer.

E.g., "I'm having a problem with this software."
Answer: "Stop using the software, and your problem will disappear."

You are right. I don't want to take this as the correct answer, adobe chose and made a wrong selection. I'm just fed up with adobe + Logitech synergy and reply as a joke.
I have also submitted an issue to the Logitech community.

It's July 2022 and I have this same scroll speed issue. Here's what I'm working with:
The MBP's touchpad works fine and scrolls at normal speeds.

In the Logitech mouse driver settings, disable Smooth Scrolling specifically for Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Hope this helps.

Sadly, this didn't work for me.

Just to give a semiannual reminder, it is December of 2022, 5 1/2 years after this issue was first reported, it is still a problem, and it has still gotten no attention from Adobe. I have disabled smooth scrolling on Logitech Options+, that helps a little, but leaves the scrolling very jerky. This is an obvious bug with Adobe that literally no other software I have used experiences. How has this not been fixed yet?

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that.
Please open Acrobat and go to the View tab > Page Display > Select 'Enable Scrolling' and reboot the application and check if that works.
Also, a new version of Acrobat DC 22.3.20310 is now available. Please update the application from the help menu > check for updates and reboot the computer once and see if that helps.

We are sorry for the delayed response
Please try to repair the installation from the help menu (Win Only) and see if that works.
Please try to reset the Acrobat preferences as described here https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/how-to-reset-acrobat-preference-settings-to-defau...
You may also try to create a new test user profile with full admin rights in Win or enable the root account in MAC and try using the application there and check.
