Adobe Acrobat X Professional Upgrade Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This new Adobe Acrobat X is terrible and annoying to use. A big disappointment. It's the "Vista" of Adobe.
When you launch Acrobat X there's always a start up screen that pops up in the middle of the screen and cannot be disabled, asking if you want to open a file, create a new file, etc., like the user is an idiot.
There are only 5 main menus on the top: File, Edit, View, Window, and Help. Acrobat 9 has 10 menu choices. Gone from the main menu on top are Document, Comments, Forms, Tools, Advanced, and Plug-Ins. They were all moved to the new right side panel you have to open up everytime you want to do something and takes up space and covers up the PDF.
The Find box is gone from the top. Now you have to hit "Ctrl F" and a small little box appears on the right of the screen to type in the text in. Everytime you want to search a document you have to go through the hassle of opening up the little box.
There is a fading toolbar window at the bottom of the screen instead of being on the top where it ought to be. When you open a PDF you have to scroll down to the bottom of the page and try to figure out where the hidden fading toolbar is, mouse over it, wait for it appear then press the Print or Save button. On the fading toolbar they have the page count and when scrolling through a PDF it dissapears and you can't tell what page you're on unless you mouse over the faded toolbar and then is disappears after a few seconds. Also in the faded toolbar is the zoom menu where you have to mouse over it to appear and select the page size you want and then it disappears.
When you have a PDF file open and want to save or re-save it, you have to actually select the PDF first before the file save dialog box opens. Why is it necessary to select a PDF you already have open?
Using Adobe Acrobat X drives me crazy. You can't focus on what you're doing. I reverted back to Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.2.
