Foxit Reader is a free and rather compact program for viewing and printing PDF files. Being high-performance and relatively small Foxit Reader has been included into top programs installed on users’ hard disks.

Basic features and advantages:

  • Small size of set up file;
  • High speed of program start and fast document rendering;
  • Numerous functions for working with comments on the document which could be saved or printed;
  • Integration with the browser;
  • Ability to work with multiple documents simultaneously;
  • Useful and interesting Loupe function allowing a user to zoom a document fragment;
  • Multilingual interface.

Though the program is free there are some restrictions in its functionality. If you don’t want to read advertising or are interested in a full-scale editing then you should install some advanced paid add-ons.

Foxit Reader is an excellent alternative to slow and hungus Adobe Reader.
