To return toolbars back to the default view, open a context menu from any toolbar or in the

Toolbar Well and select Reset Toolbars.

Hiding all toolbars. Toolbars can be hidden from view to offer you more room when editing a

PDF document or browsing the contents of PDFs. To hide the toolbars from view, open a context

menu from the Toolbar Well and choose Hide Toolbars. When toolbars are hidden you won’t have

access to a context menu to get the toolbars back in view. Instead, choose View ➪ Toolbars ➪

Show Toolbars to make all toolbars reappear. (Note that using this menu command also hides

toolbars.)

Hiding a single toolbar. You can hide a toolbar after it has been undocked from the Toolbar

Well. Click the X in the top-right corner of the toolbar (Windows) or the small circle on the top-

left side of the toolbar (Macintosh) to close it, and it disappears from view. From a context menu

opened on any toolbar or the Toolbar Well, you can open the toolbar and display it in the Acrobat

window again. Toolbars can also be hidden by using the More Tools window, opening a context

menu on the Toolbar Well and selecting a toolbar with a check mark to hide it, and selecting tool-

bars in the View ➪ Toolbars submenu.

Locking toolbars. The vertical separator bar used to move toolbars disappears when you select

Lock Toolbars from a context menu. The toolbars cannot be inadvertently moved after you lock

them. To unlock the toolbars, open a context menu and select Lock Toolbars again. The check

mark alongside the menu command becomes unchecked and the toolbars are unlocked in the

Toolbar Well. If the toolbars are locked and you drag an undocked toolbar on top of the Toolbar

Well, it won’t dock. You need to first unlock the toolbars before you can redock them.

Additionally, you need to unlock toolbars in order to use the Reset Toolbars command in a

Toolbar Well context menu to return tools and toolbars back to the default position.
