Acrobat
Need a better ability to open PDF files directly in adobe acrobat to edit, zoom, and pan effectively, or better PDF markup tools internal to Teams. The current viewing, scrolling, zooming, and editing tools are too limited, particularly when it comes to commenting or editing PDF versions of figures or drawings.

Microsoft and Adobe are supposed to be partners now, so this needs to be fixed. We use PDFs for document review and approval. If TEAMS can't support pdf interactivity, our organization can't use it for much for project management and will opt for a different solution.

Just new to Microsoft Teams and pretty disappointed with the PDF rendering. Whilst it doesn't display existing notes/comments or allow proper updating, it's effectively useless. I see this issue has been bubbling along for ages. When will there be a solution?

One quick way is permit Teams to register application for opening a certain file type - just as a default tool - then Acrobat can work its magic

I always wonder if Microsoft can play nice with its competitors? PDF is a standard - since Microsoft can beat this - just embrace it and move on. This will really help everyone.

As others have said - a better interaction with standard pdf files is necessary.

As everyone is saying, we need this to be able to see each others comments on pdfs.
Game changer yet so basic.

Hi, I'm going to add my voice to the need for Teams to allow for viewing and commenting of PDFs. Now, it's extremely cumbersome if you're keeping your PDFs on Teams/Sharepoint -- download to your local computer, share your screen, make the comments needed. Then, upload the file back to Teams, making sure you're managing versioning correctly.
We previously had the ability to use Windows Explorer to access files on SharePoint by setting them up as a Favorite or a linked directory (in the side-bar to the left). That at least allows the storage to be in the cloud (safer, more collaborative). But, apparently, that functionality went away last year.

I am surprised that Microsoft Teams doesn't support acrobat forms filling. This feature should be added. The versatility of acrobat forms for document processing is too important to be ignored

Not being able to directly comment on PDF within MS Teams is a huge miss in my opinion.

We have a showstopper fully implemeting Teams as long as there is no Adobe (either reader and pro) App

This was important for us but has now become an essential feature as we have so many documents being circulated as pdf files that need subsequent editing. The current functionality is too restrictive.
