Thanks for the link even though many here probably already know them.

Really the downside with these PDF Viewers is that their interface and hotkeys are set up for viewing and printing and not for reading. One thing I realize when I got back to Adobe Lite was the fact that the text look sharper and the hotkeys were much easier. It even has a way of changing the effects between moving from text to text in fullscreen which I found to be much less stressful on my eyes.

Your welcome, and yeah Adobe is very good.

The pdfxchange viewer is pretty good though.
With it's zoom features and the rest of the suite-
though it adds a watermark to created pdfs.

eXPert is a full suite for pdf creation and viewing.
Nice to have on the computer.

So which one do you think is better? Foxit or pdfx?

I use Foxit and I like that it loads much faster than Adobe and I really like the Firefox plugin.

cmpm:
pdfx, it's fast, faster then foxit i think
pdfx is my default pdf viewer
