Foxit PDF Reader

Absolutely fantastic PDF reader and manager!

Comments: I've been using Foxit PDF Reader for a while now and it has become my favorite tool for day-to-day PDF-related tasks. I'm an extensive reader and note-taker, and it has all the necessary features included that make everything more manageable.

Pros:

I use Foxit as my go-to PDF reader for numerous reasons - 1. Cross Platform - It works like a charm on my machine. I use Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and it's a little old operating system, but it works without any issues. I've tried a lot of PDF readers, but none of them were as good as Foxit.2. Color Schemes - It comes with various inbuilt color schemes, and all of them fit perfectly with the PDFs which really improves the whole reading experience.3. Page Style - Takes one click to change page style from "single page" to "continuous" to "facing" and more.4. Annotation tools - Foxit is packed with a good number of annotation tools that can be used to take diverse varieties of notes. It comes in handy when I'm deep diving into topics that require extensive note-taking.5. Last, but not least, it's remarkably fast. It takes no time to load and is ready to work. So far, I haven't encountered any lags in the software.

Cons:

A couple of things -1. Once you annotate a specific part in the PDF, you cannot copy-paste it directly. Clicking on it opens a pop-up for taking notes, which means you can't select the text without removing the annotation.2. Foxit has a "Start" panel that displays the recent documents, and if you accidentally close it, there's no way to open it again unless you restart the application.

The easiest way to complete my documentation works.

Comments: For the last several years, I am using several different pdf readers. I find Foxit readers is the easiest way to operate than others. It takes less time than other relevant software. I don't have to wait to open a file. What I need to finish my work, I can do that with Foxit reader. Break a PDF file, edit it, and then merge it with my other files is more comfortable with this software because it's quick and easy for me to understand what I need to do. I forget to mention that it's a lite and low ram consuming software than other similar software, which means I can use it on my low-end pc also.

Pros:

The interface is too easy for me to operate. The main reason for choosing this software is its take no time (so less, I mean) to open any pdf files than others; I don't have to wait for this. I am using text editor tools with ease. It also has a great feature of exporting pdf; when I need a specific page as pdf from a big pdf file, I can easily do that quickly and edit it with ease.

Cons:

While I was using windows 7, after some heavy use, sometimes it crashes. It's a bit annoying for me sometimes I get some ads when I am working.

Better than Adobe

Pros:

Foxit is the free version of Adobe, because it allows you to edit and sign documents without having to pay for the premium version. It also doesn't take up a lot of space on your computer.

Cons:

The signature feature changed last year. You can still sign, but it is more confusing about where to find it.

Works as advertised

Comments: Foxit Reader works great for reading PDFs and even making notes on them. I have used it to fill out PDFs that needed to be completed and returned to someone. Overall it is a good PDF reader.

Pros:

Foxit Reader does not take up very much space on the computer hard drive. It opens quickly and offers features that allow you to type or write on the PDF.

Cons:

I have had trouble trying to open PDFs with Foxit Reader after I use the Foxit Reader printer to create the PDF. I have not been able to find the problem causing this.

Does What It Says On The Tin

Pros:

It seems like everybody uses Adobe for PDFs, so I wasn't sure how it would go when our IT guy set us up on Foxit, but in the 3+ years we've been using it everything's been very seamless and there haven't been any issues. I don't really have a lot of experience with other PDF readers, but this one does what it says on the tin, and that's all I really want.

Cons:

I'm not sure if this is a Foxit-specific issue or (more likely) all PDF readers, but it's annoying to not be able to delete pages directly from a protected PDF, and have to save it as a new document in order to do that. Sometimes the rotate page feature is a little crazy, but really I don't have a lot of complaints about it.
