Unfortunately, as with Acrobat Reader, the Foxit Editor respects all restrictions the author has set. We were excited by this, as we had recently filled out forms for the Department of Motor Vehicles to register a car but found we were not allowed to save the form data, which was very annoying. Not a biggie in terms of cons, given that Foxit Reader's performance is such a big pro.įoxit also offers a PDF editor, Foxit Editor, that is, as far as we know and as Foxit claims, "the first real editor for PDF files." Foxit Reader doesn't detect the position of the pre-defined data entry fields, so you wind up entering data, then dragging it to the right location on the form.
First up this week, a neat freebie: a lightweight PDF viewer for Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, XP and 2003 called Foxit Reader published by Foxit Software.įoxit Reader is much faster than Adobe Reader and much smaller as a download (1MB, compared with almost 28MB) and as an installed program (just under 3MB, compared with 90MB).Īlthough Foxit works as well as Adobe Reader for viewing documents, it isn't quite on par when it comes to filling out forms.
