After 10 minutes of research to get my old Acrobat Reader layout, I found your video. Cheers from France. Thanks for saving me time.

I can't thank you enough! I didn't realize that Adobe came up with a new layout and thought I was losing my mind and couldn't figure out how to get the familiar layout back. Now I know it's Adobe that's gone mad by changing the layout to something out a nightmare for PDF users and creators.

Hi! The Adobe Acrobat Reader program is free and they didn't include a "Save" button, so it can't be used for editing. I think Adobe's software has become VERY expensive over the last few years and I don't like how all of the software companies have switched to a "subscription model". I miss the good old days of pay-once, use forever. There are LOTS of other Adobe Acrobat alternatives you can find that cost less and don't require a subscription license. Many people have already jumped ship on Adobe. Let me know how everything goes if you choose use install a different program. Thanks -- Jason :)

Thank you so much for this helpful video. I have several functional disabilities with processing information, managing tasks, ADHD, etc., just to name few, and so when I opened up one of my PDFs and suddenly found everything so completely screwed up and mashed all about by their unexpected layout / interface changes, etc., it kind of really screwed me up and sent me into a tirade for a while. Needless to say, your video's been a great help, and believe me, when they asked why I reverted back to the old layout after doing so, I tore into 'em w/my response. Such total disregard and lack of consideration on their part for the impact that their doing these things can have on their customers is, I'm sure, immensely unappreciated, by many. MY ONLY FEAR NOW IS THAT THEY MAY AT SOME POINT DECIDE TO "FORCE" THESE CHANGES ON EVERYONE AND OVERRIDE OR DENY THE ABILITY TO REVERT BACK TO THE PRIOR LAYOUT / INTERFACE STYLE . . . and if so - when they do that, I will most likely be GONE - probably along w/a bunch of others. WOULD YOU KNOW IF THEY HAVE ANY PLANS LIKE THAT IN STORE? I've already purchased a user license for an alternative PDF program called Wondershare PDFelement, as a precautionary measure. And I've also already used that program for a while, as well, so am already used to it, too.

I'm glad my video helped you! We do seem to be at the mercy of big companies like Microsoft and Adobe. Microsoft is in the process of making BIG changes to their Outlook program and it is already causing similar problems for some of my clients. I don't know what Adobe is going to do to us next but I'm glad you have an alternate program that you're comfortable with. Thanks for your comment and have a great weekend! -- Jason

@@JasonBagnell Thank you again, as well. And thank you for responding, too. I don't have or use MS Outlook, but do have MS Office Home and Student (2016, I think), w/in which I use MS Word, a "tremendous amount." Hopefully those MS Outlook changes you're talking about won't be rolling over into that, as well - as that'd have the potential for screwing me up in a major way, too. So, woulf you happen to know if they're going to be rolling those changes over onto MS Office Home and Student / MS Word users, as well? I pray and hope not, as I don't know how pople keep their sanity with the ways these companies are always screwing around with and changing things. I'm prety old school and firmly believe in the old mantra that "if it ain't broke, don't fix ti." If ur able to get back to me on this question as well, then thanks for such also, and in advance. You are appreciated. -- Steve

​​⁠ Hi Steve! I think you’ll be OK because they are only working on, developing and changing their Office 365 products. In your case, having an older pre-365 version should keep you from getting an unwanted surprise from Microsoft. As far as they are concerned, your version is “old news” and hopefully they won’t make changes to it other than pushing out security patches. Cheers! - Jason

See the following page on the Adobe website: community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-reader-discussions/showing-pdf-the-way-i-last-viewed-it/td-p/8970134 In the answer, it says to open the Adobe Acrobat program and then do the following: Go to Edit - Preferences - Documents and tick "Restore last view settings when reopening documents".

Unfortunately this doesn't work just reloads the ."new improved" version again. When will the developers realise that frequent users work from muscle memory and drastically altering the previous layout (i.e. page numbering now bottom right corner, vertical with the zoom function where it was on the menu bar at the top) is not an improvement as it turns a simple task into an irritating faff that costs time (and therefore money) to overcome. I'd love to remap their keyboards and see how they feel about it. Might not be so quick to reinvent a wheel that works.
@JasonBagnell
@JasonBagnell Год назад
I'm not sure why yours would switch itself back to the new style automatically. On mine, once I click "Menu" followed by "Disable new Acrobat" it stays on the old layout. I tried it on 2 different computers and on the newest versions of Adobe Acrobat Reader and Adobe Acrobat Pro. I totally agree with you about not wanting developers to make drastic changes to things we have grown accustomed to. I have posted several videos over the years about how to get the old Windows 7 style Start Menu back because the new Start Menus that have come out since Windows 8 have made me Nuts! Have a great weekend :)
