Looking for a Good, Lightweight PDF Reader

**mastavic** · July 24th, 2011, 12:14 PM

Hi, I've been using Foxit for a couple of years (even paid for it once to support them), but since the upgrade to version 5.0, Foxit has been a lot slower and just feels very bloated.

Are there any good alternatives? My next to try is probably Sumatra, although it seems like a lot of people really hate it for some reason.

I just need a good reader, as I already use Sonic PDF Creator to print from Websites to PDF, and PDFill for filling out forms (got a better alternative for that, too?).

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion. I had thought about doing it, but decided to just look for different program altogether. It's unfortunate that Foxit went down such a route, but I'd rather have a program that is good and allows me to actually keep updating so that I can get the newest features and security.
