sincity Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/art/DOWNLOADS/PDF/Foxit-Reader/Foxit-470-75.jpgFoxit Reader is one of the best all-round PDF packages available, exceeding what many of its paid-for rivals do whilst remaining completely free.Why you need itIf you're looking for great free PDF software, head in Foxit Reader's direction. It makes the bold claim that it is 'better than Adobe PDF Reader and Acrobat', but this isn't merely a case of hubris from the new kid on the block. Foxit Reader has been around for half as long as Adobe's PDF software, but it's been making some serious waves along the way. It's secure, light on system resources and loads up quickly, and the Microsoft Office-style ribbon bar keeps options tidy and easy to find. Separate PDF documents can be loaded in the same window thanks to Foxit's tab system, ensuring your desktop doesn't get clogged up with multiple windows.When it comes to reading and editing PDFs, Foxit puts in a truly strong showing. You can highlight text, insert bookmarks, draw graphics, type on the document and more. Create PDF documents from scratch, convert images into PDFs or reverse the process and change PDFs into text documents – it's all there in Foxit. Then when you're done, you can easily share your work with collaborators or on social media using Foxit's extensive range of integrated tools.Foxit Reader's main rival is Adobe Acrobat, and while Acrobat has a few more advanced features, it also currently costs $19.99 a month to use (about £12.79 a month); Foxit is totally free, packed with features and more than meets the needs of the everyday user.Key featuresWorks on: PCVersions: FreeRead and edit: Foxit contains extensive tools to help you edit and mark up PDF documents in pretty much any way you need toCreate and convert: Make PDF files from scratch or create them from a range of imported files, or convert them back the other wayKeep things organised: Foxit's intuitive user interface ensures options are easy to find but never clutteredYou'll also likePDFCreatorFree PDF PerfectPDF24 CreatorPDF-XChange ViewerPDFsamhttp://rss.feedsportal.com/c/669/f/415085/s/41a87fce/sc/21/mf.gifhttp://da.feedsportal.com/r/216443131259/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/41a87fce/sc/21/rc/1/rc.imghttp://da.feedsportal.com/r/216443131259/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/41a87fce/sc/21/rc/2/rc.imghttp://da.feedsportal.com/r/216443131259/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/41a87fce/sc/21/rc/3/rc.imghttp://da.feedsportal.com/r/216443131259/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/41a87fce/sc/21/a2.imghttp://pi.feedsportal.com/r/216443131259/u/49/f/415085/c/669/s/41a87fce/sc/21/a2t.img Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
