If all you're doing is reading and copy/paste, what kind of menu options are you going for?

The Foxit toolbar is pleasant to use and easy to customize.  It gives me one-click access to the following commands, with no searching required.  I use these commands frequently when reading, copying from, or printing pdf files.


Open File (Sumatra has on toolbar)

Text View Toggle

Text Select Toggle

Print File (Sumatra has on toolbar)

Text Rotate

Text Zoom (Sumatra has on toolbar)


I like the way Foxit works and looks.  Version 4.0 seems to be free of unwanted addons.  It's also quite fast.  Sumatra feels archaic and I can't think of a reason why I'd want to use it.

I don't do pdf editing, just reading and copy/paste.  I use an old version of Foxit Reader (4.0) and love it.  Tried Sumatra, but found that I had to make excessive use of the menu to get things done.

For me, 3.0.6.1469 cleared up issues of slow starting and general browser slowdown.

Still hanging with XP, actually.  Probably some day I'll regret it, but no obvious problems yet.

He must be attracted to the light.
