Hi Larry,
We noticed that many valuable toolbar buttons were removed from Arbortext 7 as well. I just added toolbars and buttons back in, and your list looks very similar to the ones I added. Here's what I did (from memory, so I may not be 100% accurate):
Copy C:\Program Files\PTC\Arbortext Editor\lib\dialogs\editwindow.xml to C:\Program Files\PTC\Arbortext Editor\custom\dialogs\editwindow.xml
Grab the old icons and put them in C:\Program Files\PTC\Arbortext Editor\custom\dialogs\icons\ (I used the Snipping Tool and an image editor to trim them to 16x16)
Edit the editwindow.xml in the custom folder to add the icon references to the <imagegroup> section (near the top):
<!-- 2015-12-11 R.McGarvey Added new images from Arbortext 5 -->
<image id="imageDeleteMarkup" path="icons/icon_delete_markup.png"/>
<image id="imageInsertSymbol" path="icons/icon_symbol.png"/>
<image id="imageQuickmarksAdd" path="icons/icon_quickmarks_add.png"/>
<image id="imageQuickmarksGoTo" path="icons/icon_quickmarks_goto.png"/>
<image id="imageQuickmarksList" path="icons/icon_quickmarks_list.png"/>
<image id="imageViewNormal" path="icons/icon_view_normal.png"/>
<image id="imageDocumentMap" path="icons/icon_document_map.png"/>
<image id="imageSyncViews" path="icons/icon_sync_views.png"/>
<image id="imageLeftRightSplit" path="icons/icon_left_right_split.png"/>
<image id="imageTopBottomSplit" path="icons/icon_top_bottom_split.png"/>
Add the new toolbars and buttons to the <toolbargroup> section (bottom of the file):

Restart Arbortext to see the new toolbars! If you're looking for different buttons, see C:\Program Files\PTC\Arbortext Editor\packages\commands.acl for the commands available.
Special thanks to Rafael Diaz for pointing me to the commands.acl file. 🙂
