Posted by dkszone on June 2, 2009

Foxit Reader is a free PDF document viewer for Windows, which is much faster and lighter than Adobe’s PDF reader. Its core function is compatible with PDF Standard 1.7. The reader is just around 3MB in size. A Firefox Plugin is available for it which lets users view and work with PDF files loaded in Foxit Reader with Firefox web browser.

Features include Add/Edit bookmarks in PDF files (if no password is set), PDF form filling and printing, saving of filled forms, import/export of forms, view PDF as plain text, etc. With Foxit Reader’s bookmark pane, you can quickly and easily browse your PDF documents. This lightweight alternative to Adobe PDF Reader is free for personal as well as commercial usage.
