It can easily export PDF files to office, PDF/A/E/X, and more. It’s been like two years since the last time they updated it, so… Other than that, if you’re looking for a more professional looking PDF reader for Ubuntu (or GNU/Linux in general), then Foxit 1.1 PDF reader, still looks pretty darn impressive!.Foxit PDF Reader can be used to view, create, edit, organize, sign, scan, and OCR.

It’s true the Evince is slightly lower on Memory but when considering the features, it runs “light” (plus there were times that they were almost the same!) … Apart from all those features, this is not an open-source or a GNU licensed software (it’s absolutely free to use though). But while I was trying to install it USC gave me a warning but I ignored it and the installation went quite well and Foxit worked as expected without any issues whatsoever.Īnd to my surprise, even after having some useful additional features over Evince, I was impressed by its memory usage too. From the next pop-up window, under ‘Package type’ choose ‘Deb’).Īfter the download completes, just double click on the file to open it using Ubuntu Software Center (package manager) and follow the on screen instructions. You can install Foxit Reader 1.1 (latest version) in Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal & 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot (not sure about other versions) by first downloading the “.deb” package form here (once you’re on that page, choose ‘Desktop Linux’ from the drop down menu and then click on the ‘Download’ button. These are just a few of the main features to mention. And using the “preferences” window you can change few more additional options such as: Automatic scrolling speed, default fonts, background color, page layout (singe/continuous/dual, etc), set default zoom levels, customize shortcuts… For instance, rather than letting us right click and copy the text, as soon as you highlight the text, it copies the text to clipboard. I find this to be a bit of an annoying feature actually.

Save selected text to clipboard automatically. You can easily add/remove features with ease unlike with Evince, where it’s almost impossible.

Excellent tool-bar with popular functions such as: Zoom in-out, Full screen view, Hand tool, Text selection tool, next/previous page tool, etc. Show PDF meta-tag infos (such as changing the Author name, Subject, Title, etc). Show/Hide navigation panel (bookmarks or thumbnail page views). Simple yet an effective GUI design, integrates with Ubuntu flawlessly. Although I think perhaps the default document viewer in Unity, Evince (Gnome’s actually) could be a bit faster but then again Foxit gives you a few more features. Loads fast and rendered PDF files without any issues, while I tested it. And when compared with the old beta versions, concerning both feature and stability, this is a much better product. So as a result, they released a separate version for the GNU/Linux users which of course lacked some features when comparing with the MS Windows version.Īnd it was actually at beta stage for a long time but initially, they released the official Foxit 1.1 for GNU/Linux sometime ago. Where ya all PDFs at! -)…īut with recent times they’ve found out that there’s certainly something worth investing in GNU/Linux (thanks to Ubuntu, I suppose). The developers, somewhat recently released a new version for Windows platform which brought a lot of changes (mainly concerning the GUI) but Foxit has been a bit “shy” at supporting the GNU/Linux platform. Not only it loads fast but it’s certainly uses less amount of your system resources as well. That’s what I used think until I found Foxit Reader few years ago! :).

Someone now could say that Adobe has nothing to do with it since it’s your PC which is the bottleneck. If you have a PDF file with lots of images (and somewhat an older computer) for instance, then you won’t be impressed with its performance. But in my experience, apart from all of its features and usability, it’s a PC resources hog!. Adobe invented the PDF (portable document format) thus their PDF Reader is perhaps one of the most widely used applications for reading PDF files.
