Intro

Acrobat's keyboard shortcuts on ChromeOS run through the Acrobat Android app installed on a Chromebook, with a physical or Bluetooth keyboard attached. Adobe does not support these shortcuts on an Android phone or tablet, only on Chromebooks.

ChromeOS-specific shortcut notes

Chromebook only. These shortcuts come from the Acrobat Android app running on ChromeOS. A keyboard paired with an actual Android phone or tablet will not trigger them.

Commenting shortcuts. Single-key tools like S (sticky note) and D (drawing markup) need Enable Hotkeys turned on in your Chromebook's device settings first.

Standard Ctrl combinations. Copy, Paste, Undo, Redo, Search, and Print all use the same Ctrl-based shortcuts familiar from Windows.
