Preach it, sister! #1 thing our team HATE about Acrobat X: the
Next/Previous comment buttons for PDF edits were taken away. Why,
Adobe, why?! It took considerable effort to convince our clients to
shift from an all-Word workflow to a Frame + PDF markup workflow,
then Adobe go and make that workflow substantially less efficient.
In a document with <b>hundreds</b> of comments, scrolling through
them via the side scrollbar is a giant PITA: hard to control and
prone to missing individual comments. No exaggeration, between this
missing feature and the jumping around mentioned below, Acrobat X
adds 20% to the time needed to work through a round of edits. But
the #2 thing that is disliked is the PlaySkool-size
gray-on-gray-on-gray UI elements now afflicting all Adobe apps.
Color is a great way to easily distinguish between tiny icons,
especially for those of us with eyeballs that have passed the
half-century mark. And the chunky, clunky font is neither attractive
nor easy to read. Loath though I am to praise anything emanating
from Redmond, Word's interface is at present a lot better to work
with. <br>

appearance of Frame and all the Adobe apps. Whatever happened to
clarity, readability, contrast, and the ability to size UI text
for improved accessibility? Even the best settings aren't good
enough--it goes from really low contrast and poor readability to
barely-tolerable contrast and still poor readability.

Another bad interface is recent Acrobat (Pro). UI elements are
oversized, clunky, and take up far too much screen real estate! I
hate having to click, click, click all over the place to reveal
and hide stuff, and have the document jump around, resize, etc.
while doing so. As bad on Mac as on PC, unfortunately.
