Adobe Reader Alternative?

[joe2cool]

Hi always used 'Adobe Reader', mainly for viewing, saving & printing PDF Files, but recently I've got tired of all the updates & possible vulnerabilities. Was thinking of trying 'Foxit Reader' as an alternative & was wondering what people thought of it?

 

Or would you recommend another alternative?

 

Appreciate any help

 

Thx

Hi :smile:

 

I use STDU Viewer but it does not have plug-ins for your browser, since I use FireFox which can read PDFs online this is not a problem for me.

No editing of the document either.

 

With STDU Viewer you can also view other formats which are listed on the homepage and it is free for private use

 

There is a portable version so you can try it without installing it and see if it suits your needs

 

All the best, woz of oz

Adobe Reader Alternative?

 

Had WAY too many problems with Adobe Reader.

 

Switched to FOXIT years ago and love it. Safe, secure, fast, and zero problems.
