Good pdf reader 2010

Hi,
Id'like to know a good pdf reader. I'm looking in particular for a fast pdf reader with some possibilities like copying text and images.
I have compal cl 56 1.5 GHz dothan RAM 1 giga
Test on a 437,7k pdf file (3 pages)
okular have all features but is incredibly slow to load initially and each pages!
       load pdf 10 s    load pages
evince-gtk does not have all features load pdf 21s load pages 0 s
If I open a pdf created of 577KB created by openoffice loading is much faster about 1 second which okay!
Why is that?

You can find a lot of info out there with google! Try out a bunch and see what you like best in the end!
- Linux.com: http://www.linux.com/archive/feed/58592
- Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PD … _.2F_Linux
- ghacks.net: http://www.ghacks.net/2009/11/30/linux-pdf-viewers/
Anyway, there's some more reading. I use Evince... more or less because I'm used to it. I have had problems printing every once in a while, and I hate that it's default is not to display continuously (requiring a pg dn at a page break).
For editing (annotating and misc) I have used either pdfEdit or gimp.
Good luck!

  • Adobe PDF Reader 2010

    Hi all, I just received an email offering me the latest PDF Reader 2010. I am a bit suspicious, especially since I can't find any reference to it on the Adobe website. The link it wants me to click on to go and down load it is [url removed by host].
    Does anyone know whether this is legitimate or a scam to make me download something detrimental to my PC???
    PLEASE - DON'T CLICK ON THE LINK UNLESS YOU KNOW FOR SURE IT IS SAFE.
    I have added the text for the link but the editor seems to have turned it into a hyperlink.
    Thanks

    Hi Barcode54,
    I too received that same email this morning and was immediately suspicious as it was sent to an email address that I don't use for my Adobe product registration. Well, that and a domain name as clumsy as adobe-pdf-reader2010.com smells strongly of spam, or worse.
    A quick whois search reveals that the domain name adobe-pdf-reader2010.com is registered to an individual in New York. Furthermore, the registered Gmail email address (zzztommyzzz) is used in 17 other domain name registrations, all with equally dodgy names like Adobe-pdf-2010.info, Adobe-pdf-support.com and Pdf-adobe-2010.com. Safe to say this is most likely a phishing scam, so I'd avoid clicking on that link.

  • Looking for a good PDF reader

    Is there any PDF reader out there that displays two pages side-by-side when turned sideway? I tried GoodReader but it doesn't do that.

  • Minor incompatibility between outlook 2010 and (pdf-) Reader app

    Hi.
    On win8.1 x64 enterprise (fully patched, including all optional updates to-date), I have found a slight incompatibility with outlook 2010 (x86, sp2). If anybody would like to reproduce it, here are the steps:
    First, make sure that the Reader app is your default pdf viewer. Now open outlook and take a message with a pdf attachment. Right click the attachment and select "quick Print". Expected behavior: the attached pdf is sent to your default printer.
    Instead, nothing happens.
    If I set Adobe Reader as default pdf viewer, it works as expected.
    Please be aware that the cause is related to the reader app which is not started by outlook. In order to quick print, the pdf reader would need to be started first, as observed with adobe reader: it flashes up briefly before printing starts.
    So the problem is with either outlook or with the way win8.1 manages calls from program to program - I don't know. Please note it has nothing to do with the model of the printer, it happens with all printers, even virtual ones.
    If we think of companies adopting win8/8.1, this is really annoying, as it will require them to install a 3rd party reader.
    Please look for a solution. If I should report it anywhere, just say where.

    Hi,
    I made a test on our test enviroment, Windows 8.1 X64 Enterprise, Office 2010 PRO SP2.
    There is no problem to printing as you description. You may need to consider if this is Office problem.

  • PDF Reading

    Hi All,
    I want to get an iPad but want to enquire about what they are like for reading .pdf ebooks.
    ie I do a lot of Studying of Text Books that also provide a .pdf ebook and with an iPad I wouldnt need to carry all the big books around.
    So my questions are :
    1) How good / readable are .pdfs on the iPad?
    2) Can you use any highlight features?
    3) If you are browsing the web and want to download a .pdf can you do this or do you have to transfer via iTunes?
    Thanks very much
    Paul

  • Adobe PDF Reader causing error in Windows 7

    Greetings everyone.
    I created a very simple VB.NET windows form application that only has one control, the Adobe PDF Reader. I created this project in both VS 2005 (.NET 2.0) and VS 2010 (.NET 3.5). My developer machine is XP SP3 32 bit. I experienced the same problem with version 8 and 10 of Adobe Reader.
    When I compile the application and run the EXE file on my XP machine, everything is fine. I can see the form with the Adobe PDF Reader control. When I try to run the same program on our new Windows 7 SP 1 32 bit test machine, I get a generic Windows 7 error that says "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program" and I never see the form.
    Has anybody else had this experience with Adobe PDF Reader on Windows 7?

    I appear to have found the solution to the problem RE AcroPDF.dll with Windows 7.
    I had Visual Studio 2010 installed on our Windows 7 test machine. I added Adobe Reader to the list of controls. When I tried to add the control to a form I got an error that said:
    Failed to create component 'AxHost'. The error message follows: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.
    When I researched this error in Adobe's forums, I found another user that basically said I needed to go to the Internet settings, under Preferences for Adobe Reader X, and make sure the box for Display PDF In Browser was checked.
    After testing with my applications, this does appear to resolve the problem.
    Let me know if anyone has any additional comments. Thanks for the help.

  • Good pdf viewer with different functionalitites

    Hello folks,
    I am looking for a good pdf viewer (would be nice if it could support pdf editiing) to view same pdf document at the same time. Document viewer is good enough but when I want to view the same pdf file which is already open with Document viewer, I can not open the file with Document viewer again. Therefore I am looking for a good pdf viewer. I have installed pdfedit, but it seems like over kill for pdf viewing purpose. Which tools do you use?
    thanks!

    I think the PDF viewer built in to Mendeley supports highlighting, and it has a Linux native client (mendeleydesktop in AUR), though last I tried it, I wasn't very impressed.
    Archie_Enthusiasm wrote:
    is there any okular for gnome ?
    isn't it? Maybe I should be go with evince or epdfview or mupdf.... I think they should be fine for viewing purpose. any other pdf editing tools other than pdfedit but for linux OSs?
    What kind of editing do you need to do? There are a lot of apps for combing PDFs, adding pages, cropping them, etc. (PDFsam, PDFshuffler, PDFmod, jPDFtweak, PDFjam, pdftk with various GUIs, etc.) But if you mean actually editing the text (in which case it's far better generally to go back to the source file, if available), then there's not much beyond what has already been mentioned.
    There are some webapps though you could use with Linux, like PDFescape, PDFHammer, TouchPDF, etc. I don't have a lot of experience with them.
    In general, I think there are more and at least as good PDF tools for Linux than there are for Windows. The thing is, however, that they follow the Unix philosophy and hence focus on doing only one thing (and doing it well), so you need different programs for doing different things. I use mupdf or evince for viewing PDFs, pdflatex for creating PDFs, pdfsam or pdftk for splitting and combining them, jPDFtweak for changing metadata or bookmarks, BRISS for cropping them, ghostscript or calibre for converting them, etc. No one tool does it all, but all together, I'm perfectly content.

  • PDF reader not opening in I.E.

    When I try to open a PDF from I.E. through download then it gives an error saying "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found"
    I.E. version : 8.0
    PDF Reader version: 9.4.6
    I have tried the following:
    1) Deleting the browser Cache.
    2) Entering URL in Security(enhanced)
    3) Checking the Display in Browser option.
    Can some one suggest any other way I can fix this problem?

    Hi  Vimal,
    When you install Microsoft Dynamics CRM, SharePoint Server integration is enabled by default. However, for a richer user experience, you can do the following:
    Install Microsoft Dynamics CRM List Component for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 server or Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013.
    Enable Document Management for Entities: Select the entities in Microsoft Dynamics CRM for which you want to create and manage documents on SharePoint Server. More information: Enable
    document management for entities. When you enable document management for an entity in Microsoft Dynamics CRM, a Documents link under the Common group in the left pane is added for the all entity records
    in the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Web application. You can use the Documents link to create or manage SharePoint Server location records for the entity record.
    Specify the target SharePoint server: Specify the URL of a site or site collection on the SharePoint Server 2010 or SharePoint Server 2013. This URL is used to automatically create folders and document libraries
    on SharePoint.
    For more information, please refer to the blog:

  • The Best pdf reader out there

    Hi Guys,
    There are many free pdf readers out there in the market...adobe reader being the dominant one...still, many people just do not use adobe reader because of the blot...it is slow...is heavy...download size is big and then there are too many update pop ups....
    so, which pdf reader would you choose? (I have been using foxit reader..and find it very good...stable...and fast..)

    It all depends on your individual usage.
    If you want to view/print simple PDF files, Foxit would probably be fine (spyware aside).
    If you want to view and interact with more advanced PDF's (3D, commenting...etc), then Adobe Reader would be a better choice.
    Basically, there is no overall better reader that would fit all situations.

  • Acrobat 8--Making a pdf Read-Only

    My little pamphlet included with acrobat says I can make a pdf read-only. It never says another word about that. I tried security with passwords. What I got was some a document that wanted me to enter the password(s) each time I tried to access it. That's not what I wanted. There are hundreds of pdfs floating around on the web who seem to be read-only. I want to allow people to save, print and view it, but not modify it. How does one do that?

    OK, I finally figured out how to remove password/permission (change), and then get just a change permissions password. I'm using the pop-up menu Documents Properties dialog to do this. When I look at the summary, it shows Changing the doc allowed, Commenting allowed, ..., Content copy allowed. However, when I go to Change Settings (via button), the story is different. The Changes Allowed pulldown selection shows None. If I pull it down, I see no way to make individual choices shown on the summary. Ah, got it. Good enough. Thanks.

  • Default PDF reader

    Hello
    I have an N97 Mini, bought SIM free. I use it as a mobile office.
    Two problems:
    I have installed a freeware PDF reader,and the trial version of Adobe Acrobat (now expired) came with the phone (I think - it may have installed when I bought a license for Quickoffice). I have set the freeware PDF reader as the default (Settings>Phone>Application Settings>Default apps.>Options>Advanced Options>) but it resets back to the trial Adobe app. I want the Freeware PDF reader to stick as the default reader.
    Also, I'd like to remove the Adobe Acrobat trial, but I can't find a way todo this.
    Suggestions, please!
    Thanks.

    You can't remove any of the 'trial' stuff it's embedded 
    As for default pdf reader, the only workarround I know is to save a pdf file, then open the pdf reader and select file from there !
    Good Luck

  • Is a PDF reader really necessary on iPad?

    Is a PDF reader really necessary for iPad? I haven't needed one yet ... I don't think.

    Depends on what you want to do with the PDF's and how you're getting them on the iPad. Originally, when the iPad came out in spring of 2010, there was no native PDF reader (except for emailed PDF's). Goodreader was one of the first apps to cater to PDF reading, and others came up, so there are a number of PDF apps. As time went on iBooks was given PDF ability, and for most people that's fine, but apps such as Goodreader have additional features.
    If you haven't needed one yet, don't worry about it - just use iBooks or the mail reader. If you find yourself in need of a more sophisticated app, then just visit the App Store and see what meets your needs.

  • PDF Reader and Editor for Playbook

    Hi Guys,
    Hope all is well with you...
    I recently bought playbook, adobe pdf reader sucks...period....I cannot find "words"...No options at all.
    Whenever I read a book, I like to underline the text which I find important, also when on the middle of the page, if I need to refer another name in the document, I use "find"....Now  I am not able to do both. Also there is no app on the app world as well. So sad...
    Can anyone face similar problem, Hope you guys can help me...
    Thanks

    I downloaded yesterday Jotsy from the BB App Store (right now it is available for free).
    Besides being a PDF Reader it also allows you to select a page number without scrolling to it, highlight text lines, add comments, circle text, and save these changes or undo those changes.
    Jotsy comes in ‘2 slices’. You install one on your PB and the other one on your PC. When you install the PC component you need first to install java (I had to uninstall it, then installed java from java.com, and then re-installed Jotsy to get the Jotsy icon placed into the notification area of the system tray. You need this one.
    Today I set-up a “cloud’” account with box.com (right now it is available for free till March 23) and now Jotsy syncs with my files in the Jotsy PC folder on my desktop and the Jotsy box folder in the “cloud”, i.e. the box.com’s server where one can store up to 5 GB of files either from your PB or smartphone (via upload from your media card folders or send your attachments from email as an email forwarded to your box account (wow)).
    What does sync do? It copies files from both locations to your hidden Jotsy folder in your PB so you can work ‘Offline’ on your documents. One thing I didn’t like. I needed to upload my PB OS 2 manual to the “cloud” from my PB document folder rather than move it locally (I guess this is good for service providers). However, now I can go directly to pages I want tot go from the index without scrolling through the whole manual and make notes right there in my manual or underline text.
    If this is what your are looking for click the like icon in this box. Thx, matt

  • Firefox PDF reader not showing watermarks

    Firefox PDF reader is not showing watermarks.
    People can see (and print?) my free samples minus the watermarks that are in them.
    eg at lauriewilliamsmusic.com/composers/laurie-williams/auld-lang-syne/
    Watermarks were put in by PDFill Free PDF Tools and always show up in Adobe Reader.
    I never imagined that such a failure could happen until I was checking things today and saw it. Not good.
    Just realised that this thing is asking about my browser. I'm writing this in Chrome but I have the latest version of Firefox.

    Hi Laurie,
    I appreciate the issue & problems it causes you, however this is not the best place to ask.
    TL:DR
    Explain the issue very briefly in a suitable mailing list/forum
    #See listing https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/forums/
    #* This one would seem approprite to ask about the technical aspects [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/forums/#dev-pdf-js #dev-dpf] <br /> And possibly this one to ask about the watermarks being defeated [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/forums/#privacy #privacy]
    #* Initially Ask for advice in where to discuss this mater if not their forum. Ensuring you make the point it is a global Firefox issue with a Firefox default feature and not a site specific problem.
    #Post back here to keep us informed of your progress, including links to the conversations..
    I must immediately say I do not know the first thing about the technical aspects of the Firefx PDF reader.
    I surmise that it is not a deliberate intention to remove the watermarks but a limitation in the PDF reader's ability to support such a feature. However I could be wrong as there are people who would; no doubt; argue Firefox should not support watermarks, as that restricts free access to material on the Web.
    This is not the place for any such discussion about internet rights. Neither do we discuss development decisions and policies. It is often difficult to find anywhere on Mozilla where they do discuss anything like that retrospectively.
    IIRC Admin Staff on this site agreed to identify and list any such resources, but I don't recall anything being done about that.
    You could just file a bug (I could help if necessary) for such a feature, however it would be much better to start a discussion about this first with the people concerned. A bug filed without prior discussion with module owners may well be effectively ignored.
    I've flagged this as offtopic, but I will not lock the post until I know you have found somewhere to discuss this.

Maybe you are looking for
