"Did not like it at all, better stay with free ADOBE" can't say I like anything It seems free,but with adds and toolbar Adobe is better, if you need small use to earlier versions

"Great program for PDFs" Easy to install and loads so much faster then adobe plus still has all the features. If you have a program that interfaces with Adobe for priinting there was no way to get Foxit to take over that job and normally locked up Foxit. Good if you deal a lot with PDF.

"It works and it's free" No spyware, smaller footprint and very fast load. Did I mention it's free? Some web sites that make non standard calls to the software may cause it to hang or not accept it as a pdf reader. Advanced functions require payment. (Still better than paying for Adobe) If you just need a reader and/or a simple basic creator, this software is great. No major problems noted and anytime a file won't open from the web, (very rare) it can be saved to the desktop and then opened.

"Clear and easy to use." Does exactly what you want. Pushing a costly upgrade to get more features. I like it better than Adobe Reader and have selcted as default .pdf reader. Always get latest update.

"Lighter and better than Adobe" Fast, works great alone or in Firefox. Still a much smaller download than Adobe reader. None that I can think of.

"Does What It's Supposed to Do!" Easy to use, opens automatically while browsing and it's free. I have adobe and it is prettier, but not better. none I can think of so far Highly recommended.

"Must-have PDF reader !" Very easy to use, small to download and far better than Adobe. ----------------------

"May be that I just need to learn how to use it." I like the zoom feature , plus or minus instead of 100% or 50% I couldn't get it to work most of the time. I had to reinstall adobe to read my documents. I don't know what went wrong. If anyone has any pointers for me I would like to know.

"What a relief compared to Adobe Reader" This puts Adobe reader to shame with its sizeand ease of use. Can't find any Can't believe it took so long for me to find and install this product. After trying it out for about a week, I uninstalled Adobe reader and was able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Foxit Reader is very convenient." I used to work with Adobe and it was difficult to work with. Foxit is very easy and convenient, more so than Adobe. It is far too sensitive. It seems to want to open at the drop of a hat.

"I liked the old (2.3.1) version best" This program is small and has never given me any problems regarding PDFs.I liked the version 2.3.1 which just worked and had no extra garbage attached. the old version is still available from the Foxit website. the new versions install the "ask toolbar" or some "Ebay" garbage. version 2.3.1 AWESOME! I went to this software after having many problems with adobe acrobat. the new versions work fine too but install extra garbage I don't want.

"Much Faster than Acrobat Reader (Free),+ less of System" Once you get used to the new Icon for PDFs and using the reader, it gives more user facilities for editing and Copy/Paste functions are also much easier. The document to Toolbar GUI is also better than Adobes' Acrobat Reader. The text highlight sometimes gets confused and doesn't recognise that it's a different font thus should Copy to the clipboard, but it fails. After 20? Years of Acrobat Icon image recognition, I sometimes miss the PDF file I was looking for.

Compact size (a fraction of the size of Adobe Reader). Fast. Opens any PDF files I throw at it. Advertising for paid version, although present, is unobtrusive. No serious problems. Program is frequently updated, but reasons for updates are not always clearly communicated. Foxit Reader offers a small, fast, reliable alternative to the bloated and frequently unsecure Adobe Reader. I have experienced no problems opening any PDF files with Foxit, and I have found it to integrate nicely with Firefox and IE. Unlike many free products that contain pop-ups nagging users to buy the paid versions, Foxit has only a small button add in the right corner, where it is hardly noticeable. All things considered, it's one of my favorite PDF readers.

"More innovative than Adobe" Great interface, and you're able to open up multiple PDF files using tabs (much like Firefox and Internet Explorer). Plus it's FREE!!! I haven't seen any "cons" yet. However, I did read that someone had problems with the browser add on, so when I installed this, I just unselected the web search browser. If you are looking for a PDF reader, this is so much more user friendly than Adobe Reader. It is innovative and easy to use. Do not skip this free program.

Doesn't use a lot of system resources. Free, and when just used to read pdfs not buggy toolbar optional. Crashes firefox with win 7. I have reinstalled several times since I upgraded to win 7 Ultimate 64 bit and it has crashed every time I try to open a pdf from within firefox. I hate to do it, but I may have to go back to that slug of a program - acrobat. Please fix whatever the problem is soon.
